EMBLEM3 IS BACK BABY! The band reunited late last year. This meant this dismemberment of The Balcony (Wesley and Kenny Holland), Never Getting Older (Keaton's band), and the end of Drew's solo career. They made it clear they were going to come back and be better than ever when they released their first cover, "Hello", in October with Drew back. They proved themselves by dropping their first single in almost 3 years. Yesterday they released "Now" and blew up social media. They were the number one trend on Twitter for most of the evening. They interacted a lot with fans. I even managed to get the band account to follow me. The only follow I need now is Drew's. That's not the point though.This is the realest song they have ever done. They really did pour everything they had in to this. They captured the bond that they have between each other and the bond they have with their loyal fans. The lyrics apologized to the fandom. The trio also touched on how people were labeling them without understanding them and that "their business plan" was the real reason why the band had split. Drew spits fire in the versus. Keaton's amazing vocal range allows for a great chorus and amazing back up/acapella style in the versus. Wes' voice smoothly belts out the chorus. "Now" is simply a musical masterpiece.
I am SO in love with this song and the meaning behind it. Nobody that's not an Emblem will fully understand this. They might not even understand it at all. This song was written for them and for the fandom. It definitely shows how much they care about what they do and the people that have been there to support them. This is there comeback. They're better and stronger then before. I can't wait for them to release an album! And there is an album coming. Stay tuned!
When E3 steps back in the scene
Just a couple bros, a guitar & a dream
Everything we need to achieve anything
'Cause we got lil' Keats on the Mac making beats
Got Wesley on the mic, he can sing
Me on the side, been banging these strings
Pretty much the same kids since sixteen
But NOW we're back making waves like the typhoon
Couple kids and a million dollar tychoon
Climbing up the Billboard,
Climbing up the iTunes,
Screaming baby, baby
Did you miss me? miss me?
Here on this track
Are you listening listening?
I'm in the stars, yeah
And I'm never coming down
Oh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Without taking the time to understand us,
I get the fact there's a business plan but,
That shit damn near broke the band up
And this might seem random
But I got to give a shout out to the fandom (I Love You!)
Been a couple years and you all stuck around and
It means more than you'll ever understand
'Cause we do it for the buzz when we get up on the stage
High like a drug straight shot to the veins
We don't do it for the money, we don't do it for the fame!
We do it for the love and it's never gonna change!
Did you miss me? miss me?
Here on this track
Are you listening listening?
I'm in the stars, yeah
And I'm never coming down
Oh ooh
No one can stop us now!
Ooh ooh ooh
No one can stop us now!
Ye-yeah,
And I'm never coming down,
No one can stop us now!
