Emily Mei (@emily.ghoul) is a rising singer-songwriter, actress, model, and entrepreneur from Los Angeles, California. Not too long ago, she released a wonderful music video for her new single, “Venom.” This is her fifth foray into creating new, original music, and is just the beginning of a deep dive into highlighting her versatile musical talents as 2024 moves forward.
Emily Mei – “Venom” Music Video
“‘Venom’ was written about toxic friends and how they try to make everything your fault when things finally fall apart. I feel like these kinds of people always come in and out of everyone’s lives, we’ve all faced them. The track is called ‘Venom’ because these people are like poison and the only way to heal is by extracting them.” – Emily Mei explained
With the new year rolling in, Emily Mei packs in the heat with “Venom,” complete with full pop-rock influence heard in the guitar riffs, subtle bass lines, sterling vocals, and a significant amount of big boss energy.
The music video draws inspiration from “Alice in Borderland” type sequences to anime distorted figures as a nod to her childhood love for the genre and acknowledging her cultural roots in an epic visual. No one is here for that kind of toxic energy, and the martial arts connoisseur points out why anyone should get rid of venomous people. Time and time again, Mei has showcased her versatility with these types of addictive hooks, catchy rhythms, captivating lyrics, and cinematic music videos.
