In an industry overpowered with high-energy beats and over-production, S. Coop switches lanes with the acoustic twist to his new single "UNDER DI GUN." It unpacks the layers and stares down these emotions with a deeply unguarded approach to storytelling, one that is raw and honest.
As the title suggests, "UNDER DI GUN – ACOUSTIC VERSION" accesses a lover, lovebombs them for their needs, and goes off without looking back. S. Coop strikes a note of calm defiance on the matter. He is giving notice that two can play at the same game.
S. Coop delivers his verses with a calm urgency, the sound of a man finally showing his hand after being pushed to the brink one too many times. Backed by the most stripped-down instrumentation, his strong voice cuts through all of it to convey such a visceral message that screams and demands attention without having to shout.
The groove is catchy and happy, despite the weight of the lyrics. The sort of acoustic song that advances steadily enough to find your head nodding before you even realise it, and then suddenly, you're singing along. And therein lies the whisper of S. Coop's brilliance as he melds heartfelt honesty with a rhythmic spirit that catches effortlessly.
In this newly quiet world, S. Coop keeps reminding us that the most peaceful songs sometimes speak the loudest with "UNDER DI GUN – ACOUSTIC VERSION." A tender, acoustic war cry for all the times you have been played, and for all the times you decided it was your turn to play back.
