“I wrote my new single, “The Feeling’s Mutual” about what I like to call a “friendship breakup”.” Emmrose says of the track. “A little over a year ago, I was going through a really big rough patch with a close friend of mine, until I realized that she was only making my life worse and that I didn’t want us to be friends anymore. All she would ever do was criticize me and tell me that I was a bad person, like she made me out like some evil villain.
I wrote the “The Feelings Mutual” shortly after the friendship had ended. I was at the recording studio building rooftop, and my friend just started sending me rude messages about my music. At that point, I had had enough. She wasn’t a true friend. It was a toxic friendship in so many ways, and it feels really good to have written a song about it and to finally let go. I was done feeling insecure about my music, and I wanted all my friends to be supportive of what I was passionate about”
