Justin Cooper – The Good Ole Days

Published

on

‘The Good Ole Days’ from Justin Cooper is the perfect song to end the summer 

NEW YORK, NY – It’s that time of year when the summer’s nearly over and you begin to cling to the good memories you’ve created – even in the midst of one of the most unusual years in recent memory. That sentimentality is perfectly captured in the new single from East Coast artist Justin Cooper. His song, “The Good Ole Days” is the perfect kind of song for hanging out with friends – at a party, at the beach, driving down the highway or even just chilling at home – and reminiscing about good times and the best memories of the past. 

The song opens with a groovy tick-tock type of beat with xylophone chimes that offer a bouncy intro to Justin’s smooth R&B and Pop vocals. When his voice hits, it’s like a breath of fresh air that immediately sets the mood. As the beat begins to pick up its pace, listeners are taken on a journey with a nice swaying groove that’s punctuated by electronic synth sounds that lay a perfect foundation for Justin’s feel-good lyrics.  

“The idea for the song came to me when I was just about to graduate from college and I was thinking about all the times I’d spent with friends and my roommates,” Justin said. “We had a rooftop at our house, and I was sitting up there one night thinking about the last episode of ‘The Office.’ Andy Bernard (one of the characters on the show) says, ‘I wish there was a way to know you were in the good ole days before you’ve actually left them.’ I thought of that line and pulled out my phone and recorded a voice memo. Then I stayed up all night and wrote the entire song. I premiered it for a friend’s birthday just a few weeks later and it’s really taken off since then.” 

Justin said the Pop and R&B fusion of the song creates a chill, uplifting vibe that was inspired by some of his favorite artists such as The Chain Smokers, Max Martin and The Beatles. To date, fans have reacted well to the song with more than 100,000 plays on various digital platforms. Justin said he hopes to bring a fresh voice to the table, with lyrics that reflect his raw transparency.  

“I speak from the heart in all of my songs,” he said. “Everything I talk about is purely what I’m feeling in the moment. I don’t try to shape my sound with a specific target in mind. I’m completely raw and authentic, and I’m doing every aspect of the music on my own – writing, producing, engineering and mastering. I’m just trying to live out my dream and there’s nothing manufactured about me.” 

As he rides this wave of success from “The Good Ole Days,” Justin said he’s also hard at work on more songs that he’s planning on putting together into an EP which should drop later this year. That project will continue to explore the uplifting melodies that he captured with “The Good Ole Days” while also exploring more melancholy emotions through his lyrics.

DMV-based rapper/producer Santa Sallet and France-based producer Nemizzo are MSP, presenting their new single “Big Hands”. Sallet has been busy showcasing his brand of East Coast braggadocious rap across a slew of recent singles like “Camouflage” (watch on Youtube), “I Get Money” (watch on Youtube), “Championship Ring” (watch on Youtube) and “Chinese Funk” (watch on Youtube) in preparation for the release of Plutography, Sallet’s forthcoming album which blends salsa beats, southern trap, and eastern jazz with classic and conventional rap samples, reflecting Sallet’s international upbringing across South Africa, Dominica and the US. Sallet is planning a series of full-length releases, among them C.R.E.A.M. which recounts his journey from broke to financially free, and Women and R.A.P. which describe his pursuit of success in relationships and the music industry respectively. “This is the song that really started MSP Tunes,” Santa says. “Nemizzo had laid down his verse and I was like, let me try something on this and I just talked about what I knew. What I think is funny, the outro is actually me recording a bunch of potential beat tags. There was a miscommunication and Nemizzo extended the beat and made it the outro. I like it though lol.” Check out Santa Sallet merch here.
