Illy Opens An Impressive New Chapter With Resilient Single 'Stubborn'

Multi-platinum and ARIA award-winning artist Illy marks his triumphant return with the release of the anthemic single 'Stubborn', a defiant toast to life's highs and lows. The track, available now via Warner Music Australia, is a taste of what's to come from the genre-defying Aussie in 2024.

Produced by Cam Bluff (Hilltop Hoods, Amy Shark), 'Stubborn' is a rallying cry for those who need a reminder to let go, embrace the chaos, and enjoy the ride. Illy shares his inspiration behind the song: "In these times where everyone is in a constant state of 'working on themselves'... songs that say 'f**k all that, we don't care'... are important." He encourages listeners to celebrate ignoring outside opinions and judgement, focusing instead on living life fully.

'Stubborn' follows on the heels of Illy's successful 2023 single "Hopeless" and an extensive 25-date regional tour across Australia. His ability to seamlessly blend hip-hop and pop has earned him critical acclaim across six studio albums, solidifying his place as a unique force in Australian music.

With a career that boasts multiple ARIA nominations, including a win for Best Live Act, and platinum-selling singles like 'Tightrope', 'Papercuts', and 'Catch 22', Illy continues to push boundaries and connect with fans. His recent 'Ausmusic Medley' reaching #12 in triple j's Hottest 100 of Like A Version further exemplifies his broad appeal.

'Stubborn' is more than just a song; it's a call to embrace our imperfections, enjoy the journey, and live life on our own terms.
