— Rapper Eem Triplin prepares for the release of his upcoming debut EP, STILL, by sharing his latest single and music video, “TELL ME IM RIGHT.

With his rich production, appealingly raspy vocals, and quick-witted lyricism, Eem Triplin invites listeners into a world of his own creation. Sliding over a smoothly slow burning instrumental, the 22-year-old artist/producer shares “TELL ME IM RIGHT,” his brand new video single. “TELL ME IM RIGHT” is the first glimpse of Eem’s upcoming debut EP, STILL.

Produced by Eem himself, along with co-producer Charlie Myles, “TELL ME IM RIGHT” mixes ringing, reverbed guitars and bubbly electric keyboards with thudding percussion to emphasize Eem’s easygoing melodies. The song finds the Johnstown, PA native spits game and drops witticisms in rapid-fire fashion, switching on a dime from rizz to tough talk and back: “Will you hold this sh*t down ’til I make it baby/We can ride til the moon and the sun set/There’s so many things I ain’t done yet.”

“TELL ME IM RIGHT” arrives with a scenic, Declan Kyle-directed music video, in which Eem takes a vintage Mustang to the countryside (Patterson, CA, to be very precise), where he watches cows and fraternizes with beautiful women. The wide, natural vistas provide an ideal complement to the luscious instrumental, as Eem works through his feelings. The video ends with a sneak peek at another new song from the upcoming STILL EP.

“TELL ME IM RIGHT” follows in the wake of a series of massively successful singles. Most recently, Eem teamed up with longtime collaborator $NOT for the wistful single “LET YOU KNOW,” and its accompanying, Omar Jones-directed music video, as well as the pugilistic single “WALKED IN.”

“TELL ME IM RIGHT,” “LET YOU KNOW,” and “WALKED IN” are the latest steps in Eem’s inevitable journey to stardom, fueled by a mixture of strong music and a knack for going viral. In 2022, Eem’s self-produced breakthrough hit AWKWARD FREESTYLE” – sampling and co-signed by Tyler, The Creator –generated over 50 million streams across platforms, and fans intrigued by the song quickly found that Eem had a full catalog of similarly vibey highlights to choose from, including singles like Louie V” (23+ million streams) and his latest track JUST FRIENDS?” (27+ million streams since its early September release).

Eem has established himself as a standout live performer, killing his slots at festivals and as direct support for LUCKI’s sold out “Flawless Like Me: The Made Martian Tour.” Last Fall, Eem made his first festival performance at Rolling Loud New York, performing in front of a sparse crowd but making sure that the folks in the crowd would remember him forever (even if they forgot their own names in the process). This month, Eem made another Rolling Loud performance that illustrated how much he’s grown. He performed on the main stage at Rolling Loud California, drawing a much bigger crowd for his second performance at the hip-hop festival. Eem has joined his good friend $NOT as a supporting performer on the “Get Busy Or Die Tour,”  and next, he’ll make his European debut this July at festivals Rolling Loud Portugal, Rolling Loud Germany, and Clout Festival.

With millions of streams on his catalog per week, the 21-year-old Eem Triplin’s potential is sky high. Stay tuned for more information about the STILL EP, coming soon.
