Hailing from Sydney’s Inner-West, contemporary R&B/Rap artist and producer Phil Fresh is commanding his own corner of Australian hip hop.

His debut release, an ambitious 12-track concept album titled ‘Excursion of Love’, perfectly showcases his distinctive flow and personality as well as his ability to effortlessly mesh and interchange genres. On his follow up single ‘Jonah’, Phil Fresh bars up to criticise Australian media’s (mis)representation of the Polynesian Islander community, throwing stereotypes out the window with ultra-quotable rap bravado. Where Excursions of Love is laced with R&B hooks, ‘Jonah’ unleashes Phil Fresh’s effervescent rap sensibilities, receiving regular Triple J airplay and earning him an invitation to spit at a recent cypher hosted by Glue Store in celebration of Champion’s 100th birthday in Sydney.

His distinctive tracks draw influence from artists such as The Neptunes and Tyler the Creator but with each release Phil Fresh is honing a sound that is uniquely his. And with every release, as evidenced most recently in support of frequent collaborator Kwame, has an irrepressible live show to boot.

With a new single and EP on the way, get ahead of the hype. Phil Fresh is coming for his.
