After signing with the label Sony Music Latin and management company WK Entertainment, Mernes found commercial success. She released her pop and urban debut studio album Tú Crees en Mí?, certified Platinum by the CAPIF. In 2023, Emilia earned her first number-one singles on the Argentina Hot 100 with "En la Intimidad", along Big One and Callejero Fino, and "Los del Espacio", as part of the supergroup of the same name. In the same year, she released her 2000s-influenced album .MP3, which reached number two in Argentina and contained her third chart-topper "La Original", a collaboration with Tini.
