Earth To Emily - Baby Teeth
Earth To Emily is a talented neo-soul and pop artist based in Toronto, Canada. She graduated from Humber College’s Vocal Jazz program and has performed at many iconic Toronto venues such as The Horseshoe, The Burdock, Longboat Hall, The Drake Underground, and a few others. Earth To Emily is a MVP Project round 5 recipient, which is a joint initiative of RBCxMusic and the Prism Prize (administered by the Academy of Canadian Cinema & Television.) She currently has five singles out, her latest one titled, No Halo, can be listened to on your streaming service of choice.
Her MVP Project funded video for Baby Teeth is a joy to watch. It’s cool, young, and with the accompanying song being very catchy - it’s truly just fun to watch. In the video, we see Earth To Emily feeling clearly insecure in her relationship, with said relationship being portrayed by men with dog heads. She is craving their love and attention, which is not being given to her as these dog-men are clearly ignoring her.
Throughout the video we see her sing about wanting them to notice her and how she’s scared to be left (like her baby teeth) whilst desperately trying to grab their attention. Also, we have to note that the different settings in the various scenes in the video are shown not only by the different spaces but also by the great outfits that Earth To Emily adorns.
