EMMA SEE highlights the beauty of Exposure in "Like That"

On her latest drop, "Like That," EMMA SEE encapsulates the soft sting of giving over time in a relationship that's suddenly gone from "what if" to "now." Illinois track "Excited" is written in the midst of one such long-distance situation and leans into the bittersweet tension of anticipation stoked by uncertainty, offering a brutally frank examination of the ways desire can set the boundaries of self-possession at twist after twist.

There's a brittle honesty to "Like That" that sounds both intimate and relatable. Emma's delivery is gentle yet unyielding, like a whispered confession that you may never have known you'd say aloud. It falls into the same sonic world as Gracie Abrams, Lorde, and Holly Humberstone, staking out a space for vulnerability as its own brand of strength. The reflective production mirrors the push and pull of the lyrics, making us feel like we're floating while he grapples with holding back or diving in.

EMMA SEE is familiar with getting the spotlight, as her music has landed on Spotify's New Music Friday, BBC Introducing, and Apple Music's New Music Daily already. But "Like That" seems the opening of a new chapter, one in which she revels not just in the unknowability of love, but also in the uncertainty of life in flux. At its core, "Like That" is for everyone who has ever loved too soon, cared too much, and wished they'd been just a little bit cooler. EMMA SEE has made that universal ache something hauntingly beautiful.
