Sonia: They're season 2 X Factor finalists who didn't need to take the top prize in order
to make it to the top. Emblem 3... a band made up of 2 brothers and their friend...
just released their debut album, while still soaking up the success of having a Summer
hit.
Sonia: You're out with your first album, Nothing To Lose, the reception's been awesome.
Emblem3: I just listened to the whole thing from top to bottom last night and I was mind
blown that that's our first album. It's the sickest thing ever. Yeah, I think it just
clicked for all of us actually how good it is.
Sonia: Describe the vibe of the album.
Emblem3: Really Summery, light, fun, just feel-good. It's kinda got this fierce vibe
to it at the same time because we're really passionate about the sounds that we're making
when we are in the studio.
Sonia: You all grew up together with this love and passion for singing, right? But did
you ever envision that you'd be at this stage?
Emblem3: Yeah. Well, if we didn't envision it, we wouldn't be here.
Sonia: What's it like being brothers and working together?
Emblem3: Awesome. We are brothers. Pound it. It's awesome. No, it's great. We love each
other.
Sonia: I just went on to YouTube and I looked up Chloe, which... I love that song. Over
4 million views on YouTube now, and climbing. It's gotta be surreal.
Emblem3: It is crazy.
Sonia: Can you tell me the back story of Chloe because there have been different back stories
floating around. Is there a Chloe? Ohhh.
Emblem3: Wes is my Chloe. That's weird, we're related. It's not. Are you gonna say it? You
gonna say it? You can say it. You can say it. Rock, paper, scissors, go. I win so you
have to go. Now I'm nervous.
Sonia: Are they not totally brothers?
Emblem3: Chloe concept is, a girl whose inner beauty shines brighter than her outer beauty
and you choose her over the most popular girl in school.
Sonia: See, I mean I would think they're talking about me. I would be perfectly fine if you
guys wanted to switch out the name Sonia for Chloe...
Emblem3: Oh absolutely. (singing) Sonia... That was like an evil harmony, I'm sorry about
that.
Sonia: It worked for me. It was good for me. What's life been like transitioning, living
in LA now.
Emblem3: It's crazy. It's amazing. Yeah, the stage that we're in right now, we're just
moving all the time. We don't live in LA... which speaking of that, I need to water my
plants.
Sonia: I'm amazed you even have plants.
Emblem3: Oh, you gotta have plants.
Sonia: I can't keep plants alive, how are you guys keeping plants alive?
Emblem3: Well, they're probably dead now.
Sonia: You might hate this question but I have to ask you about style. I blog for GUESS
Watches, so you don't have to throw GUESS in there, it's ok, but where do you guys like
to shop? What stores do you like?
Emblem3: Well, GUESS.
Sonia: Did you hear that?
Emblem3: I actually have this sick white jacket?
Sonia: From GUESS?
Emblem3: Except for I like bargain shopped it and it was like $140 and I got it for like
