Emerging NYC alt-pop artist Emma Rae returns with ‘Newports’, a bold and resonant single that dives deep into the emotional complexities of love, loss, and the unspoken rifts in relationships.
Building a reputation for her emotive electronic pop sound, Emma Rae’s sound stands out for its authenticity and emotional resonance, balancing its commercial elements with a heartfelt sense of reflection but also a lyrical relatability.
With the new single ‘Newports’, Emma delivers a textured, dynamic track that captures the fragility and tension of relationships through its delicate vocals, layered harmonies and swelling synths before building an unexpectedly abrasive and danceable drop thanks to the production of Tyler LeVander. Featuring guest vocalist Aleem through the second verse, the track is given a dual personality.
Emma’s storytelling prowess shines here, with ‘Newports’ portraying raw, relatable sentiments in a way that feels both introspective and universally resonant. The production layers expansive synths and intricate percussive beats, creating a vibrant pop soundscape.
‘Newports’ is the final single off her forthcoming EP, Yellow, expected to drop in early 2025.
