Villains

Villains is the debut studio album by English YouTuber and musician Emma Blackery. It was released on 31 August 2018 by RWG Records. After releasing independently five extended plays and gaining attention from Apple Inc.'s reveal of the iPhone X when one of her songs was used in the reveal, Blackery began writing for her debut album in September 2017. Villains is an electropop record whose recurring theme is Blackery's distrust within her social circle. She documented its recording process on her YouTube channel. Blackery worked with producers Peter Hutchings and Toby Scott among others. Villains garnered a positive response from music critics, who complimented its sound. Commercially, the album peaked within the top thirty in Scotland and the United Kingdom and the top twenty on Billboard's Heatseekers Albums chart. The album was preceded by four singles–"Dirt", "Agenda", "Icarus" and "Take Me Out"–the first of which reached number 47 on the Official Charts Company's Official Singles Sales chart. To promote the album, Blackery did live signings for it at HMV stores in the United Kingdom and also embarked on a European supporting tour in October 2018.
