Track 1: Sick of It. With no paid promotion, no ad spend, no features, no industry push—this song was made by two humble humans who just wanted to create something honest, let it breathe, and allow it to reach whoever needed to hear it. To know that 52,646 of you have listened, streamed, resonated…I’m absolutely baffled…and I’m crying…and I’m grateful!”</p><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/showbiz/celebrities/2025/3/6/ylona-garcia-reflects-on-journey-as-she-celebrates-10th-year-in-showbiz-1642"><strong>READ: Ylona Garcia reflects on journey as she celebrates 10th year in showbiz</strong></a></div><p>In the same post, Ylona reflects on how she has changed since her <em>PBB</em> debut and what she plans to do to better herself and become the Ylona that her fans have loved since 2015.</p><p>“I wrote this song about very dark times in my life that I’d honestly like to, at most times, forget,” she shared. “When I first stepped into the entertainment industry, I was dubbed the ‘Daldal Darling ng Australia’—which translates to ‘Talkative Darling of Australia.’ I became known for being outspoken, brave, and ambitious. And even inspired people to do the same. However, somewhere along the way I became less talkative, less outspoken, less brave and less ambitious. Whether it was misconstrued public scrutiny, failed relationships, or dangerous encounters—the light that was once there slowly began to dim.”</p><p>Ylona went on to share some realizations and personal decisions she has made that would guide her as she moves forward.</p><p>“For years I decided to keep quiet because I thought it was for the best. I thought people wouldn’t care. I thought it would protect people. But I’ve realized it’s only made things worse.</p><p>In moving forward, I decided to…</p><p>—&gt; be outspoken again</p><p>—&gt; be brave again</p><p>—&gt; be ambitious again</p><p>“Sick of It” is the start of an era, a project, and a mission. This is only the beginning. Thank you.”</p><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/showbiz/music/2025/3/16/ylona-garcia-shares-story-behind-her-song-exposed-vulnerable-but-strong-impactful-1344"><strong>READ: Ylona Garcia shares story behind her song: ‘Exposed, vulnerable. But strong, impactful’<br/></strong></a></div><p>Last March, Ylona shared the story behind “Sick of It” which she wrote in 2023. “The song is a culmination of my experiences in the Entertainment Industry from Australia to the Philippines to the United States and from the pov of a girl who had just entered teenhood to now becoming her own woman. To be Exposed to a toxic environment at a young age that didn’t care for me to succeed and still come out wanting to help.  To be Vulnerable in a song that perfectly describes a huge part of my life.  To remain Strong through all the times that almost made me give up my values.  To strive to be as Impactful as those before me and those who have inspired me to keep going,.”</p><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/showbiz/events/2025/4/22/ylona-garcia-shares-reflections-on-attending-festivals-and-events-as-a-growing-artist-2149"><strong>READ: Ylona Garcia shares reflections on attending festivals and events as a growing artist<br/></strong></a></div><p>Ylona is currently based in the US after moving there in 2022  as part of the roster of artists under the American record label 88rising. </p>
