Melanie Martinez Career
In 2012, during her junior year of high school, Martinez participated in the MSG Varsity Talent Show, a televised talent competition. She sang The Beatles’ rendition of “Money (That’s What I Want)” by Barrett Strong and “Shake Me, Wakes Me (When It’s Over)” by The Four Tops. She was eliminated in the second round.
Later in 2012, Martinez auditioned for the third season of The Voice. She had not watched the show herself prior to the audition. The initial, untelevised audition was an open call, held at Javits Center. She recalls that while she and her mother were driving to the audition, her mother’s car broke down before they reached the Queens–Midtown Tunnel, and the two were forced to “hitchhike” a taxicab in order to get there.
Several months after the initial audition, while at Roosevelt Field Mall, Martinez received word that she had advanced to the “second round”. She then received multiple callbacks until she was finally selected to audition on the show itself.
Martinez auditioned singing Britney Spears’s “Toxic”. Three of the four judges, Adam Levine, CeeLo Green, and Blake Shelton, hit the “I Want You” button for her. Martinez chose Adam Levine to be her coach.
In the Battle Round, Martinez competed against Caitlin Michele. They performed a duet of the Ellie Goulding song “Lights”. Martinez won and moved on to the Knockout Round. Michele was stolen by Cee Lo Green and also moved on. In the Knockout Round, Martinez was paired with Sam James. She chose to sing La Roux’s “Bulletproof”. Levine eliminated James, and Martinez moved on to the Live Rounds as one of the five remaining members of Team Adam. In week one of the Live Rounds, Martinez sang “Hit the Road Jack”. Public vote saved Team Adam members Amanda Brown and Bryan Keith.
Levine then chose Martinez over Loren Allred and Joselyn Rivera to remain in the competition. In week three, Martinez’s performance of “Seven Nation Army” finished the voting period at #10 on the iTunes Top 200 Single Chart, causing her iTunes votes to be multiplied by ten. This occurred again in week four, when “Too Close” ended the voting period at #6.
Martinez was eliminated by audience vote in week five, along with fellow Team Adam member Amanda Brown, leaving Levine with no artists. In response, Martinez said, “I never expected to get this far and this is beyond what I’ve ever dreamed of. I’m just so glad I got to express who I am as an artist and really touch people’s hearts because that was the ultimate goal.”
She later compared the song’s story to Edward Scissorhands, saying “[It’s] the perfect home with the perfect lawn and they all look the same. But behind each house, there’s a screwed-up group of people who are hiding behind wealth and perfection.” Martinez also released a music video for the track, which was fan-funded by an Indiegogo page created by Martinez, and hair, makeup, and shooting was all done by friends of hers. The song was produced and co-written by the NYC songwriting duo Kinetics & One Love.
In January 2020, Martinez announced an EP titled After School, revealing the title through her Instagram stories. The EP would serve as a deluxe edition of K-12, however, is not connected to K-12 in terms of timeline. On February 10, 2020, Martinez’s management issued the first single from After School, titled “Copy Cat”.
The song features American rapper and songwriter Tierra Whack. This marks the first time that Whack has worked in a professional capacity with Melanie Martinez and the first time that Melanie Martinez has featured another artist in one of her songs. Martinez later released a second single from the EP, “Fire Drill”, on June 26, 2020. The song had previously been featured in the credits sequence of her film, K-12.
