B-Nod, hailing from Chicago, reflects on the city’s burgeoning music scene, noting its significant growth over the years. While Chicago is renowned for the drill era, B-Nod chose a distinct path in his music, aiming to carve out a unique identity. He believes collaboration among artists could greatly benefit the community, lamenting that local support often comes only after achieving recognition. Despite these challenges, he remains devoted to his city, particularly the Southside at 127th.
In his music career, B-Nod’s ultimate ambition is to be recognized as one of the all-time greats, using music as a gateway to new opportunities and aiming to inspire both children and adults to pursue their passions relentlessly.
If given the chance to change one aspect of the industry, B-Nod would opt to revive authentic music, pushing back against gimmicks that overshadow genuine talent. While acknowledging the allure of clout in today’s music landscape, he advocates for a return to substance over superficial fame.
