Emei
A little drama never hurt anybody. Emei knows how to bring it too. She’s an unabashed “theater
kid” who grew up into an Ivy League-educated pop femme fatale at the helm of a crazy,
candy-coated, and colorful world of her own making. With a bold voice that’s as vibrant as her
personality, the New Jersey-born Chinese-American songstress delivers clever and catchy
anthems meant to be blasted out loud. She primarily spoke Chinese at home and studied under
her vocal coach, Sally Gu, from the Chinese school she attended on weekends. Beyond
listening to Chinese pop, she immersed herself in musicals, spinning her parents’ West Side
Story CD on repeat. Soaring on stage, she placed third on Chinese Idol at 15-years-old and
later appeared on China’s Dancing with the Stars. Upon achieving a degree in cognitive science
from Yale University, she uploaded original music online. Emei made major waves with 2022’s
“Late to the Party,
” surging on TikTok and igniting her End of an Era EP. However, she reached
critical mass with the release of her single, Scatterbrain. Touted as one of Spotify’s “Best Pop
Songs of 2023,
” the title track eclipsed 71 million Spotify streams followed by “Irresponsible”
with 31 million Spotify streams. Earmilk hailed her “smooth vocals singing charming
tongue-in-cheek lyrics,
” and Atwood Magazine marveled at how “her audience connects to that
palpable electricity.
” OnesToWatch christened her,
“one of the most promising alt-pop artists to
watch.
” Plus, she has incited the applause of Billboard, People, Wonderland., and Lyrical
Lemonade in addition to BBC Radio 1 in the UK and Triple J in Australia. Spotify handpicked her
as one of Pop Rising’s “Artists To Watch” for 2024. She notably sold out a series of dates across
Australia. Throughout 2025, she headlined her biggest tour to date and performed to sold-out
crowds coast-to-coast in the US and in the EU. After gathering over a quarter-of-a-billion
streams, selling out shows, and attracting multi-GRAMMY® Award-winning mega-producer
Ricky Reed [Lizzo, Leon Bridges, Camila Cabello, Phantogram, Jon Batiste] to her corner, she
embraces her theatricality on her Night At The Opera EP [Atlantic Records / Nice Life].
