Present - ‘La Thong’
This project is brought to us by VirtualCons’ new music division. ““When we decided to expand VirtualCons to add a music division, we knew exactly who we wanted to work with first, Sisqo. His Thong Song was the anthem for many of us during our high school and college years,” said 3 Fams CEO, Michael Mota. “We knew a new audience needed to hear it and we wanted to add something extra – In comes JD Pantoja, a Latin and Reggaeton Star – Putting the two of them together allowed us to make MAGIC.”
