The music of L.A.-based Canadian singer-songwriter Lila Rose — doing business under the name ANML — tackles empowerment, self-worth and other feminist issues with a set jaw and bold lyrics. The ballad “It’s Over” is about finally calling it quits in a toxic relationship, and the documentary-style video for the song offers heart-rending vignettes from 13 women who decided to say enough was enough. Released in conjunction with the National Network to End Domestic Violence and Domestic Abuse Awareness month, the video has been translated into 10 languages.
The tune is the first from a forthcoming EP “RELEASE!” Besides releasing a full-length in 2012 and singles in 2014 and ’15, Rose has had myriad songs featured on television (“Lucifer,” “The Royals,” “Vice,” “Bull” and “the Fosters,” among others). Only the clean version of “It’s Over” would make it past the TV censors, but it’s a strong statement either way, made visceral by director Kill Freeman’s video treatment.
