During KTO’s recent trip to NYC, Arshan caught up with Eem Triplin, a rapper and producer from Johnstown, Pennsylvania. Eem dropped his debut project, N0wh3r3, in Feb 2019 & has also produced songs for the rapper, $NOT, including “STRANDED”, “Revenge”, & “Demanding”. At the end of March 2020, Eem dropped his viral hit, “AWKWARD FREESTYLE”, which quickly spread across TikTok, garnering over 11 million plays on Spotify alone. The music video for “IF YOU GO” has over 300k views in less than a month & his most recent single, “JUST FRIENDS ?”, dropped in early September 2022.
During the interview, Eem talks about making beats & rapping since 2014, being influenced by the internet, and reveals his skincare routine. He lists some of his inspirations including Tyler the Creator, A$AP Rocky, Kendrick Lamar, & XXXtentacion. Eem asserts that Childish Gambino is in the top 5 most talented people ever, before talking about his KZread “type beat” channel & growth hacks for KZread videos. He explains why he stopped selling beats online but reveals that Yeat rapped on one of his Lucki type beats. Then they discuss Eem’s biggest song to date, “Awkward Freestyle”, and how he didn’t expect it to go viral since his drop before that, “Pimp Talk”, didn’t perform well. Eem says he thinks that having Kim Kardashian on the cover helped “Awkward Freestyle” go viral, & admits he cried when he saw Tyler show love to his song.
Eem talks about his history with PNB Rock, who he says was one of the first big names to reach out to him. He then goes into detail about his friendship with $NOT & talks about being at the Lyrical Lemonade video shoot for $NOT’s song, “Revenge”, which Eem produced. He details his funniest memory involving $NOT and a dead bat, & reveals that he was present when Yeat facetimed some fans for the Channel 5 video. They close their conversation with Eem discussing his release strategy and why it’s effective, before offering advice to young creatives. Kids Take Over is based in Vancouver, Canada.

I love how Arshan is becoming more confident when interviewing all these artist, especially in this one, he seems a lot calmer, you can even hear it in his voice. I love that for you Arshan! Keep it going !
its so dope too see eem’s songs getting light. mans been grinding and definitely deserves every bit of what’s coming his way ✈️💜
I discovered Eem through my tiktok, when he popped up it was his song “if you go” and I was like “you this kind of a vibe” and his new release is so good too, can’t wait to see where he goes in like a year, dude has a lot of potential
This guy seems really nice and humble fr. I hope he pops off into bigger leagues fr
inspirational interview its cool to see Eem Triplin coming up with a producer fanbase and making beats for years, i def can relate to that as im focusing more as an artist, but been making beats since 2011 and posting type beats and tutorials as well, thanks Arshan KTO for this!
Happy to see eem on this come up he deserves it and i cant wait to see more ❤
I remember getting off school in middle school and listening to eem triplin beats. Gotta love this mans drive

9:40 broooo im so glad he mentioned that abt creating the same emotion he felt when he sampled tyler's stuff cause i feel like that's genuinely what's missing in a lot of sampled tracks or when people try to "pay homage" to an older sound, that feeling is almost disconnected and the sample just seem pointless, idk how to describe it lol he put into words smth i been thinking abt
im glad to see his come up, i used at least 15 of eems type beats.
Good interview to be back with Eem I think has potential
