After coming fourth on that program, she began to release a steady stream of EPs and singles, including ‘Avec Moi’, ‘Vicolo cieco’ and ‘Sangria’ – the last of which has been certified gold. She is currently signed to Warner Music Italy.

Emma’s song for MESC 2022, ‘Out of Sight’, is a ballad with electro influences that really grows over the course of its three minutes. In the final, Emma had one of the more unusual staging performances, including a section where she was joined onstage by a small child.

Malta was represented at Eurovision 2021 by Junior Eurovision 2015 winner Destiny Chukunyere and her electro-swing banger 'Je me casse'. She came seventh with 255 points.
