A song heavily influenced by Emerson's essay is "Shake it Off" by Taylor Swift.
The lyrics "But I keep cruising can't stop, won't stop moving. It's like I got this music in my mind" and "I'm dancing on my own (Dancing on my own). I make the moves up as I go (Moves up as I go)" are parallel to text from the essay.
The song and essay both represent the idea of self-reliance and following ones own conscience while avoiding or not caring about the surrounding world/society.
