EMM

EMM has built a reputation for creating music that showcases a woman’s unapologetic power in a world that constantly tries to diminish it. She has become a beacon of hope for girls everywhere who are searching for their inner heroine.

EMM’s story is not a shallow one and it’s not for the faint of heart. In many ways, from the outside looking in, it’s been a dream - a classically trained musical prodigy from a tiny Michigan town, graduating early, moving to New York City on her own as a teenager to pursue music, and making it all a reality. EMM is an accomplished musician - an award-winning classical pianist, guitarist, songwriter and producer. Not to mention, her voice and 4 octave vocal range - one that rivals the chart-topping divas of this generation.

But as a young teen, with all that creativity there was also an intense battle with shame, guilt, a chronic struggle with depression, a challenging social life, deep familial struggles, body image issues and religious and sexual trauma. So songwriting was more than a passion or a discipline in EMM’s life - it was the key to her survival.

She crafted her first mixtape in 2016, Burning In The Dark, about her struggle with depression and suicidal ideation. She wrote, sang, produced, performed, played, mixed, and mastered the entire project top to bottom in her tiny North Hollywood apartment.

She then performed at some of the city’s largest arenas, including the Staples Center and Dodger Stadium. She even secured features in USA Today, Medium, Earmilk, and many more press outlets.

Since 2018, she has built an entire superhero story and universe that translates across 3 more mixtapes - “EMERALD,” “RUBY,” and “SAPPHIRE,” with over 155 million independent streams. “BLACK DIAMOND” is her next project in that series, rolling out in 2024-2025. Her universe also includes an incredible live show, a doc, a music video short film with over 5 million views, and upcoming: a video game, an animated series and a comic. And of course, she’s built a catalog of hundreds of songs. She did all of this with no label, completely self funded through her success as a content creator.

In 2024, EMM released her documentary and full-length incredible concert project, GENESIS, which highlights the unique challenges of behind the scenes women in entertainment. That project has been extremely viral with the clips reaching 100 million+ views online.

In 2025, EMM partnered with The Orchard and Independent (the label) for her next album, BLACK DIAMOND. EMM called the album and visuals “a performance art piece designed to be a campy representation of the traits in women that are vilified most in society.”

BLACK DIAMOND was met with critical acclaim from major outlets like GALORE, ROLLING STONE, and WONDERLAND. CAGERIOT said of her accompanying tour, “EMM uses her platform to call out oppressive systems, corporate, religious, and cultural, that try to silence the vulnerable. Her music isn’t just personal. It’s political. It's
