Emblem3 joined The X Factor season 2 where they performed theiroriginal song "Sunset Boulevard" during the audition. The group made it to the live show as part of the top 16 under judge Simon Cowell's team.

During the first week of live shows the group performed "One Day" by Matisyahu and the audience was on their feet.

Making it to the top 13, Simon Cowell gave Emblem3 a mashup of "My Girl" and "California Girls."It was a movie themed night. The next night the vote rankings put the group at a disappointing number 6.

Britney Spears understood "why the girls swoon" Emblem3 after performing "No One" by Alicia Keys.

Making it to the Top 10, the group thanked their spiritual leaders before performing One Republic's "Secrets."

Wesley announced all the guys from Emblem3 play instruments but didn't play them on The X Factor stage performing Smashmouth's "I'm a Believer." This was the first week Emblem3 made it into the top 3 voter rankings.

The guys sang in perfect harmony the following week when performing Brono Mars' smash hit "Just the Way You Are."

Emblem3 made itto the Top 4 before being eliminated. So close to the finals, they did not get a chance to perform for the save.
