Jeremy Zucker, Supercuts | Track Review 🎵

Jeremy Zucker impresses on “Supercuts,” where he talks himself out of a relationship because, we “Started something that we’re just gonna end.”

Jeremy Zucker knows it all too well.  Honestly, Zucker does well in his depictions of matters of the heart, even if they’re unpleasant, such as “Not Ur friend” or “Julia”.  Once more, Zucker entertains the plight of love superbly on “Supercuts,” a single that arrives post-love is not dying.[/otw_shortcode_dropcap]

To reiterate, it all comes down to love on “Supercuts.” Jeremy essentially seems to talk himself out of the possibility of a relationship because of the potential negative side effects. He’s upset from the start because of a lack of control where, ultimately, he ends up being “the bad guy.” Therefore, on one the catchier choruses I’ve heard in 2020, and definitely the rare one referencing Supercuts, he lays out why love is far too risky!

“‘Cause I don’t wanna be someone who makes you happy
Then lets you down, we’ll both feel crappy
I’ll hate your friends when this shit ends
Well, alright
And I don’t wanna make your mama cry at dinner
And see her at the mall next winter
At Supercuts, she hates my guts
Well, alright.”

His hesitance towards getting serious are further confirmed on the bridge, where he sings, “Find me drowning in this bullshit again / Started something that we’re just gonna end.” It’s pessimistic pop, but hey, at least its relatable, pessimistic pop at its finest.

Final Thoughts

Safe to say, Jeremy Zucker DID THAT – Yes, he did! “Supercuts” is awesome from start to finish.  Zucker has always had a beautiful voice, and he flexes that beauty once more.  Furthermore, I’m pleasantly surprised to hear him ‘roar’ some, something I didn’t realize he had in his arsenal. People have slept on him, but they definitely shouldn’t – he has plenty to offer as an artist.
