Setting the tone with a luscious soft rock meets soul-pop energy, Eric Cohen opens God Gave Me You with the title of the song and a sentiment of gratitude.
The opus expands with emotion and charisma, as Eric Cohen thanks God first for his muse, and then goes on to thank his wife directly for the battles she has been through be by his side. We appreciate the depth and poetic nuance that Eric shares, but it is his passion and authenticity that is tangible.
We always love a connected being who shares their voice and message through their art, and gratitude is such a wonderful vessel to celebrate God and existence, and this is exactly what Eric Cohen brings to life with his prose.
Eric Cohen‘s flow is immaculate, he brings to life his message with such versatile and dynamism. He cites Mac Miller, Tupac, Eminem, Dr. Dre, and Toby Mac as some of his influences. We can also imagine that fans of The Roots would be able to deeply connect with Eric Cohen‘s style, although there is no doubt that he is creating a universe of his own!
The harmonies are immersive and add a sense of cosmic dimensionality to the composition, cohesively entwined with Eric’s outstanding delivery. There is no doubt that God Gave Me You will intentionally allow Eric to expand his artistry.
