Long Island, NY-based urban artist aku has just recently dropped a massive joint titled “I Don’t Have a Gun.” This emotional banger is a perfect display of the skilled creator’s smooth inspiration and genre-bending style. From the first notes, the guitar-driven instrumental sets the tone of the track. Aku enters with his semi-rapping and semi-singing vocals performance, a nostalgic flow that never fades out until the very end. Catchy yet profound, “I Don’t Have a Gun” is set to become one of aku’s timeless songs, following-up to the over 300K streamed “rose gold in paris town,” his biggest hit to date.
“I Don’t Have a Gun” is an introspective urban track that manages to not only showcase aku’s top-notch musicality, but also bring forth relatable storytelling in which every single aspect seems like stemming from true experiences, as aku shares his inner-struggle with his own demons.
