What people are saying

"As an artist, Emilya combines modern R&B's edge with adult contemporary pop's relatability, and the one-of-a-kind way in which she performs that combo is a refreshing, unique vibe!"

“First, I would characterize Emilya as a person of integrity and seriousness of purpose. The educational and personal standards that she sets for herself are high and uncompromising.

Second, Emilya is a person with ambition and the will to succeed...to succeed even modestly requires vision, discipline, creativity, complex problem-solving skills, and the ability to pursue long-term goals for which the reward may not be evident in the beginning. Emilya possesses these traits in abundance.”

"Emilya presents her timeless vocal tone on her new debut single "Infatuation" fusing old school R&B elements with modern, new wave sounds. Emilya's soulful voice paired with her expressive lyrics transcend any singular genre so it is difficult to categorize her, but I am excited to see what is to come.

Working with Emilya in the studio has only increased my confidence in her artistic ability seeing her effortlessly glue a track together with skillfully concocted phonetics. I highly recommend keeping a look out for whatever she releases next."

“Emilya’s music soothes my soul like soft thunder. Her lyrics are tinged with poetry and vulnerability, yet they tell my story too with honesty and straightforward depth. Her melodies are exotic yet simple, easy to listen to and impossible to forget, just like her velvety voice. I can’t wait to watch this beautiful star shine! From my view, she already does!!!"
