Struggle has been a constant refrain in Philip Singer’s life, but as Metaphysical, he transforms it into the raw material for compelling hip-hop. His new single, “34th Floor,” is more than just an introduction to his artistry—it’s a testament to his tenacity, talent, and entrepreneurial spirit.
Raised amid the conflicting landscapes of Pasadena and California’s Central Valley, Singer’s adolescence was anything but conventional. Bouncing between five high schools, battling addiction, and experiencing homelessness, he faced more than a fair share of turbulence. The turning point came in 1994, when a catastrophic car accident left him in a coma for nearly a month. Rather than breaking him, the aftermath—marked by relearning to walk and talk—fueled his resolve.
Music became both therapy and megaphone. After military service as a U.S. Army cook and enduring years of untreated epilepsy, Singer finally found stability through faith, medical support, and creative expression. That evolution now takes center stage on “34th Floor,” a single that blends old-school soul with contemporary hip-hop beats and authentic storytelling.
Metaphysical’s resilience isn’t limited to just lyrics. With his beverage brand, H I G H Ice Tea, landing shelf space at Kroger, and the founding of Fred Sanford Music Publishing Group, his commitment to reinvention shines through. He wants his story—and his success—to remind listeners and fans that adversity need not be the last chapter.
With features in UBO MAG, Daily Music Roll, and IssueWire already nodding to his growing reputation, Metaphysical’s journey is a blueprint for turning setbacks into fuel. Every verse of “34th Floor” is a reminder that staying alive and striving forward is itself a powerful victory. In a world hungry for authenticity, Metaphysical delivers—with both conviction and hope.
