A wonderfully talented pop and R&B singer, EEMA is back in the spotlight after a ten-year break, and she’s bringing with her a heavenly new collaboration. Having first made a name for herself in the late 2000s and early 2010s when she performed on the lively stages of Melbourne's live venues and nightclubs, EEMA has been poised for a spirited return, and ‘Milky Way’ is just that.
Featuring Baesz, the new single is a vibrant and unforgettable reintroduction to EEMA, purposefully blending pop and R&B into a cosmic sound. The song is a beautiful mix of easy-to-listen-to anthemics, smooth, soulful grooves, and timeless warmth. It’s a visceral, gorgeous blend that takes ideas from a lot of different places, and yet, still retains that personal, modern touch.
The song is a tribute to a very strong, magnetic connection—a love so deep that it feels like it comes from another world, which is why the title is so great. It's the kind of relationship that pulls you in like a magnet.
What really makes EEMA's return special is how honest and emotional her lyrics are. She didn't take a break from the stage; she had a lot of time to grow and learn. EEMA shares the strength and vulnerability she found on her journey as a single mother, giving listeners a real look into her life. This dedication to storytelling gives her music a unique and powerful quality that speaks to anyone who has had to deal with life's surprises.
EEMA's return feels solid and meaningful in an industry that often focuses on the moment. Not only is she coming back, but she's also sharing her diary with a perfectly made soundtrack. ‘Milky Way’ is proof that passion never really goes away once it's lit. This is an exciting new chapter, and we can’t get enough.
