Ever had a moment that felt so specific you wished the English language would just… keep up?
Like when you turn down the radio to concentrate on finding a parking spot. Or when a package arrives and you suddenly feel like it’s Christmas morning. Or when you’re in a mall, you have to pee, and the only thing standing between you and disaster is that little map kiosk you can never find fast enough.
That’s the whole idea behind my new album: Sniglets.
So… what’s a sniglet?
A sniglet is a word that doesn’t have a dictionary definition… but should.
Which means a sniglet can be basically anything—as long as it names a real human experience that somehow slipped through the cracks of language.
EmDubs didn’t just write a list of them.
He made them into songs.
A musical dictionary (with hooks)
Sniglets is comedy-pop with a spoken-word wink: catchy choruses, little definition “outros,” and a narrator who is way too excited to teach you new words.
It’s playful on the surface, but there’s something weirdly satisfying about finally naming the tiny moments we all share.
Because once you name something, you can laugh at it.
And once you can laugh at it… you can claim it.
A few sniglets you’ll meet on the album
Here are some highlights from the tracklist—aka your new vocabulary.
Geosniglet
A geo-sniglet is a location that is not on a map but should be.
For example: Unicorn Land.
It’s real. It’s official. And yes, I will say it nine more times if necessary.
Earbuddying
Ever have something on your phone you want to share… but you don’t want to play it out loud?
Earbuddying is the act of sharing your earbuds in public so more than one person can hear audio on the same phone.
It’s friendship. It’s teamwork. It’s a tiny act of public bravery.
Mallmanac
A mall-manac is the map inside a mall that shows you where to find what… and where to find the toilets.
In other words: the hero we don’t deserve.
Discombebopulated
Discombebopulated is when you turn down the radio to concentrate on finding a parking spot.
If you’ve ever done this, you already understood the assignment.
Lactomagulation
Lacto-mangulation is tearing the spout when opening a milk carton.
It’s a silly crime. Many of us are repeat offenders.
Dis-confect
Drop candy on the floor. Pick it up. Blow on it like that does anything.
That’s dis-confect: the little ritual we do to protect ourselves.
(And yes, the Five Second Rule is absolutely a co-signer.)
Armwrestlefest
Middle seat on a plane. Two strangers. One armrest.
Armwrestlefest is the silent battle for territory—because “middle seat gets both” is the social contract.
Boxaphoria
Box-aphoria is that rush you get when a package arrives.
“What’s it gonna be?”
A mystery. A dopamine hit. A cardboard miracle.
Flufficiency
How many stuffed animals is the right amount to have in bed with you?
That question has a name now: flufficiency.
And yes, I’m asking for your flufficiency rate.
Why EmDubs made this
Because life is full of tiny, hilarious, universal moments—and we’re all walking around acting like we don’t notice them.
Sniglets is his way of saying: you’re not alone, you’re not weird, and yes, that is a thing.
Also, EmDubs genuinely loves the idea of building a whole little world where language is playful again—where we can invent words, sing definitions, and make everyday life feel like a shared inside joke.
Come sniglet-hunting with me
If you’ve ever wished you had a word for a moment you couldn’t explain, this album is for you.
Listen to Sniglets, learn a few new terms, and then start spotting them everywhere—because once you know what a sniglet is… you can’t unsee it.
And really, it’s in your best interest to leave sniglet hunting to EmDubs.
