this works but only in zsh and can't put it in a bash script. Supposedly works in bash > 4.x though.

for f in *.m4a ; do fnew=$(echo "$f" | sed -e "s/[$(printf $emoji)]//g" -e 's/  / /g'); mv "$f" "$fnew"; done

this one worked for some emoji but not all

this one I ended up using to get rid of emoji in Transnomino (Mac free app renamer) regex [\p{So}\p{Cs}] and takes out emojis.
