Cody B. Ware is the amalgamation of our youth culture. Blowing in from Jamaica Queens, this black metal hip-hop force of nature is competing with Irene for red alert supremacy. Both a fashion and musical savant, Cody infuses what he sees with what he believes to create his sound. Adopting different religions, races, and musical influences; Cody is the portrayal of the melting spoon of music right now. The 23-year old carries a street swag and raspy New York hustle, captivating you with every word he delivers through his SM58. Seemingly introverted off stage, his effervescence on it blends a lyrical ferocity with a stadium-illuminated set of anthemia. His newest project entitled Welcome Home proves his hybrid lifestyle as a spiritual creator who adopts his Jewish and Catholic heritage to formulate the soul of his song substance. He passionately exclaims Welcome Home is the reflection of this lifestyle, and he tells us why he created this world to foster the out-casted youth feeling the same way. We sat down with Cody on a chilly fall evening in New York to hear his thoughts on music, life, the industry, and why Cody B. Ware is such a rare artist in today’s pop culture.
