EMA Shares Obama-Sampling Gun Control Anthem "Active Shooter"
EMA (born Erika M. Anderson) has entered the political punk ringer with her latest track, "Active Ringer." The tune is a direct response to the recent string of mass shootings—think of it as a gun control anthem.
The song begins with deep, cadence-like drums. EMA's vocals kick in heavy with distortion, a somber repetition of "every kid in America." It feels like Karen O at her heaviest in the Yeah Yeah Yeahs.
