Spanning 13 tracks, MELODY OF A MEMORY was crafted by a team of producers led by Eem and executive-producer Dahi (the GRAMMY-winning sound architect, formerly known as DJ Dahi), along with Matthew Castellanos and Eem’s frequent collaborator Charlie Myles. Moving from style to style even as it transitions seamlessly between songs, the album draws inspiration from the likes of Pharrell Williams and Tyler, The Creator, and is similarly packed with sonic detail. The album is home to singles like “FIJI,” a collaboration with the R&B group Cruza, and the spritely “DUYA,” as well as new highlights like “IF WE BEING HONEST” and OUT MIAMI,” a collaboration with Ty Dolla $ign. MELODY OF A MEMORY is available on all platforms via RCA Records.

“It’s been a long time coming, but I hope fans know that I’ve been putting a lot of hard work into this album,” said Eem. “I’m excited for the people to finally hear what we’ve been cooking up over the past year or so while I’ve been in the studio with the homies Dahi, Matt, Charlie, and more. This project reveals parts of me that I haven’t shared before, and also shows a side of my sound that I haven’t shown folks yet. I think it shows my evolution as an artist, and I hope people hear that when they tune in.”
MELODY OF A MEMORY is the culmination of a two-years long rise from bedroom producer to budding rap star. Eem started his career producing for artists like $NOT, whose early support encouraged Eem to keep building his own world and attempt an artistic career of his own. He built a profile with viral hits like “AWKWARD FREESTYLE” and “JUST FRIENDS?,” each gaining tens of millions of streams across platforms. Eem released his debut EP, STILL PRETTY in Summer 2023, earning acclaim for songs like “WALKED IN” and “TELL ME IM RIGHT.”
Eem spent the intervening 18 months between STILL PRETTY and the imminent MELODY OF A MEMORY building a loyal fanbase, performing live as an opener for artists like Bryson Tiller, LUCKI and his good friend $NOT, showing out at festivals like Rolling Loud, and European fests like Clout Festival and Splash! Festival, and performing his first-ever headlining show in his small hometown of Johnstown, Pennsylvania. In 2024, Eem performed his first headlining tour, the “STILL PRETTY North American Tour,” selling 11,000 tickets across 21 shows (90% sell out), released fan-favorite singles like “stephanie,” and collaborated with Camila Cabello on her song “baby pink.”
With hundreds of millions of streams in the bank and his debut album out now, Eem Triplin is ready for the world to hear what he can do.

The Background:
Born and raised in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, a community of roughly 18,000 located near Pittsburgh, Eem started his career as a producer, creating and selling beats online, producing songs for artists like $NOT and T9ine, including the latter’s fan favorite tracks “BENZO” and “Revenge.” Eem’s success as a producer fueled his desire to become an artist in his own right. His career as an artist kicked into high gear when he shared “AWKWARD FREESTYLE,” a self-produced, personality-filled song that used elements of Tyler, The Creator’s 2013 song “Awkward.” The song quickly went viral, inspiring thousands of TikTok creations, generating millions of streams on all platforms, and eventually reaching the ears of Tyler himself, who gave the song his enthusiastic co-sign.
Since then, Eem scored follow-up hits like “JUST FRIENDS?” and “LOUIE V,” generated multiple viral moments at Rolling Loud Festival, and drew the attention of the Johnstown newspaper, The Tribune-Democrat, who profiled the local hero and captured his community’s excitement about his success. With millions of streams on his catalog per week, the 23-year-old Eem Triplin has a shot to become one of his generation’s biggest stars.
