There’s a great deal of reflection and poignancy in ‘The Impossible’. Born out of an old composition from La Rosa’s previous album, the new single takes a definite step forward, giving us a glimpse of Philip’s newly-found artistry. Back after a three-year hiatus, the Australian talent managed to reconnect to his creative self, enduring a journey of reckoning and personal growth that seems to have paid off; ‘The Impossible’ is the perfect evidence of that.
Featuring the eclectic and kaleidoscopic production of longstanding collaborators The Banton Brothers, the record delves into mainstream pop and expressive R&B, eventually taking a quirky and unique path, one that results in heightened poignancy and vibrant, cathartic energy. Philip La Rosa’s dynamic and luscious vocals embark on a deep lyrical reckoning, taking a final look at the past ten years, a time filled with personal challenges and meaningful growth.
As the Australian creative explains: “It is both a swansong to my past, and a phoenix cry for the future.” Featuring themes of mental health, human wellness and LGBTQIA+ pride, Philip is now gearing up for a series of upcoming releases, nuggets of musical goodness that will undoubtedly redefine the kind of artist he is.
