“Independent is an empowering anthem saluting women who live life to the fullest and by their own rules.” – Chrystal Rose
After making a name for herself across television, literature, and beyond, Chrystal Rose looks to unveil her vibrant debut single, ‘Independent, celebrating the women who live their lives to the fullest. Making waves, the single is also set to be featured in the forthcoming romantic comedy, ‘50 Faking Fabulous.’
About the Single:
Crossing the bridge between R&B and pop, ‘Independent’ sports both soulful vocals, hearty backbeats, and an empowering message. The single lands rooted in confidence, with its twinkling guitar toplines adding a glistening finesse to its hearty backbone, highlighting Rose as an artist who can express her songwriting through storytelling, leaving a mark that lingers long after the song is over. The release additionally features Phoebe One, a MOBO Award-winning rapper who adds an extra, cinematic direction to the track.
Speaking about the release, Rose dives in, “I wanted to salute all women and encourage those who aren’t, to become decision makers, feeling free to be confident enough to set their own boundaries, excel in their chosen fields, become financially autonomous, aspiring to believe and achieve – that’s being independent!”
Adding about her career, “My many decades have taught me depth, nuance, and resilience. At 63, the irony: the entertainment industry starts to undervalue what years have crafted. Experience isn’t a liability: it’s an asset which shouldn’t be ignored.”
The single will additionally be offered as a 99p download to fund the forthcoming rom-com ‘50 Faking Fabulous’, Rose’s third film venture, alongside a crowdfunding campaign to further encourage support and make the film a reality.
About the Artist:
With a career that stretches across television, literature, and film, Chrystal Rose steps into music with a depth of creative experience that looks to propel her as a multifaceted talent. From early recognition in the eighties with her award-winning screenplay work, all the way through to building a name as a pioneering TV presenter and producer, she continues to pioneer her way through the industry, turning heads in the process
After being inspired by the likes of the Oprah Winfrey show, Chrystal’s drive to create has set her up for success within a multitude of contexts. Launching The Chrystal Rose Show in the early nineties, she became the first woman in the UK to front a self-titled talk show, producing over one hundred episodes while also developing parallel ventures in fashion, live events, and business. That same independence carried through into her writing, with multiple novels and screen projects, including work that has reached international stages such as Cannes.
Now turning her focus toward music, her rich, multi-layered background informs a debut that feels rooted in the same inspiration and empowerment that set her up for success back in the eighties and nineties. With experience spanning scriptwriting and directing, Chrystal brings a bold sense of introspection into her next chapter, shaping a release that reflects both her creative range and her longstanding commitment to self-liberation.
