We interviewed Wesley, Keaton and Drew, the members of the group Emblem3, while they were in Manhattan. The were finalists in on the TV show "X Factor."
Figured out we needed to change the band name, change the whole direction of the band in general. We need to be some kind of representation of something. We need to be like an icon, a logo, an emblem.
Wesley did say, "It's got a ring to it." We said we'll keep it, and it stuck, and then we threw the 3 on it.
About the law of attraction, it's really simple; you can give whatever you want, you can get anything that you want, you just have to work hard.
And his album catalog [millions of copies] . . . It's just so cool to me to see someone who only puts out pure-hearted music, have that be [a top seller]. It gives me so much hope and makes me so optimistic.
