Emory produces his own music as well as that of others he represents as the founder and owner of Haylstorm Entertainment Group. As a child, Emory would rent concerts and music videos instead of the normal comedy and action flicks his peers would watch. The first one he recalls is Madonna’s Blond Ambition World Tour. Not only did he study the music and choreography but also wanted to know who desig
ned the sets, who choreographed the moves, who designed the wardrobes, as well as who show directors and band directors were … in other words, everything about the production of a tour.
“If you want to sing and dance for a living, if it is your passion and what you live for, you HAVE to be a business or brand.” - Emory

Since 2000, Emory has completed 10 albums under his alias Haylstorm. As for his solo vocal career, he is currently working on releasing his album, Breaking Free; the EP was released in 2010. Emory has been described as having the personality of P!nk, the vocal styling of Seal, George Michael, Robbie Williams & P!nk and the potential performance/showmanship of Madonna, Janet Jackson & Britney Spears … the male version of these pop stars. This sums him up well and is very much a compliment to him and his work.
“The purpose for my music and the shows I hope to perform is to make people think, laugh, to be political, and to push people’s buttons, but in a good way….” – Emory
Emory belongs to the group of people who are not only musically and physically talented entertainers but also very business-minded artists as well. Madonna brought this to the forefront with her brand in 1980’s and 1990s; Emory is among the new class of such artists along with the likes of Lady Gaga and Nicki Minaj.
