From start to finish, BARCODE813 is effortlessly smooth and confident, dropping sly bars you can’t help but appreciate.
The Ocean Beach native credits his roots for shaping him into the creative person he is today. And although he believes his town is kinda slept on, BARCODE813 feels Ocean Beach’s “hippy” energy has a certain vibe you can’t find anywhere else.
BARDCODE813 has been making music for about seven years. The smooth-moving rapper admits his hard-hitting bars weren’t always what we know today. BARDCODE813 initially struggled to build cohesive rhyming schemes. And for a while, solely focused on producing.
However, given the effortless swagger BARDCODE813 emits on “CHOW MEIN,” you’d never believe the musician had a hard time building flows.
I feel like creativity is my purpose in this lifetime, and I’m constantly working on new ideas, so, to me, the possibilities honestly seem endless, BARCODE813.
“CHOW MEIN” starts off with a short spoken word affirmation presented by BARCODE813 in which he assures his listeners he’ll mess up any beat handed to him. Shortly after, the bass drops, and things really get jumpin’.
Throughout the track, BARCODE813 spits steady-moving bars that ride the beat’s waves perfectly. The rapper carries a laidback approach while he’s on the mic, and this swagger transfers to your soul as you listen to “CHOW MEIN.”
The song (CHOW MEIN) was honestly made on kind of a whim, BARDCODE813.
“CHOW MEIN” embodies carefree, laid-back energy throughout the entire song. Are the bars super thought-invoking? No, and they don’t need to be. BARCODE813’s goal was to craft a fun, easy-going song to commemorate moving into a new apartment with his roommate and producer, Colt .45.
Speaking of the beat featured in “CHOW MEIN,” it’s the type of energy you need if you’re tryna hype yourself up. Although the rhythm starts off tranquil and slow, the intense bass and trap-like elements quickly flood your ears.
The beat alone is packed with addicting suave energy. And adding BARCODE813’s bars just brings the song to an entirely different level. Basically, the partnership between Colt .45 and BARCODE813 is one we’re looking forward to seeing more of.
‘BAR’ is my initials, and ‘CODE’ is the promise I made to myself and the morals I live by. ‘813’ is my birthday, BARCODE813, regarding the origin of his stage name.
