The song goes hard but getting the full-fledged visual? Super tough. Tap in.
Eem Triplin uses his melodic rasp to tell relatable, charming stories about his life as a rising rap star. Kicking off a big year with a new single, the 22-year-old artist and producer shares "stephanie," along with its music video.
Produced by Eem and his frequent collaborators Sauron ("WALKED IN," "WASTED TIMES") and Imitation Therapy, "stephanie" is an easygoing anthem flecked with plaintive piano chords and euphoric vocal samples. Reflecting on a recent fling, Eem examines what went wrong and how his bad experience with infidelity helped shape him into the man he is today: "When Stephanie broke my heart, I evolved, I became who I am who I are/Never would I have thought I would take this sh*t far, now I'm up with the moon and the stars." The video for "stephanie" was filmed during a stop on his fast-selling "STILL PRETTY TOUR," as Eem performs for an adoring crowd, relaxes backstage, and shows off his dance moves.
2023 was a year of leveling up for Eem Triplin, as he performed several sold out dates, shut it down at festivals like Rolling Loud Miami and Clout Festival and Splash! Festival overseas, and released STILL PRETTY, his debut EP. Spanning 7 tracks, and featuring production contributions from DJ Dahi, the STILL PRETTY EP features fan favorite singles like "WALKED IN," "TELL ME I'M RIGHT," and “What Da Opp Said.” After touring as direct support for LUCKI and $NOT earlier in the year, Eem played his first-ever headlining show in his hometown of Johnstown, Pennsylvania in July, as 1,500 fans greeted him with an ecstatic reception–many fans lined up hours early to get a great spot, and others enthusiastically crowd-surfed as Eem did his thing on stage. Eem then set out on his debut, headline tour STILL PRETTY North American Tour – selling 11,000 tickets across 21 shows (90% sell out). Eem closed out the year by releasing two new songs, "YEAH YEAH" and “Allocate.”
Already named an artist to watch in 2024 by Blavity, Eem looks to continue his upward trajectory that started with viral singles like "AWKWARD FREESTYLE" and "JUST FRIENDS." With hundreds of millions of streams to date and much more music on the way, Eem Triplin is only just beginning to realize his vast potential. Stay tuned.

Keeping calm and balanced while still radiating an effortless swagger, Eem Triplin shrugs off his haters with ease. Celebrating the start of his first-ever headlining tour, Eem shares the video for “YEAH YEAH!” – Watch Here.
In the “YEAH YEAH!” video, Eem casually hangs out in a parking lot filled with vintage Benzes. Dripped out in a green moto-style leather jacket, twinkling Chrome Hearts chains, and a shiny new watch, the 22-year-old star is surrounded by baddies who admire his style and relaxed confidence as he spits bars about his newfound fame. Co-directed by Eem Triplin and Declan Kyle, the video proceeds to follow Eem through several other color-coded locations, before transforming into a neon fever dream during the chopped-n-screwed outro.
On November 11th, Eem kicked off his debut, 21-date headlining STILL PRETTY TOUR with a sold out show in Philadelphia. After crossing the US twice in 2023 with LUCKI and $NOT and making his way through Europe this summer, Eem's ready to take on a tour of his own. And the fans are just as ready. Sold out dates include Los Angeles, Santa Ana, Denver, and Boston and Philly, New York, Houston and Sacramento aren't far behind. Full list of tour dates below!

Well, after a year of viral singles (and performances) he finally released his debut project STILL PRETTY EP. STILL PRETTY sees 7 tracks in 17 minutes, including previously released singles "WALKED IN" and "TELL ME IM RIGHT." It's filled with his signature dreamy synths, raspy, pitched-up vocals and crisp, hard-hitting drums.
There's a whimsicalness to Eem's music – even when he's talking about getting money and bad b*tches. And production wise, Eem worked heavily with DJ Dahi and Charlie Myles. The EP comes off of two 2023 tours – LUCKI's FLAWLESS Tour & $NOT's Get Busy or Die Tour – and performances at Rolling Loud Miami, California, Germany & Portugal, Summer Smash, and Clout Festival.
