Kobenz’s Full Biography

Kobenz is an Alternative artist from Minneapolis, MN. Kobenz’s artistic journey only started a couple of years ago. In 2020, Kobenz was hospitalized following an attempt at taking his own life. He had been battling major depression and PTSD stemming from an abusive partner. As he could no longer handle his course work, Kobenz dropped out of school and took to poetry as a form of therapy. Poetry soon turned into music, and Kobenz began to amass a cult-like fanbase following his release of “Sour Lemon,” which is a rework of the 2004 Billboard hit, “Lemon,” by Katy Rose.

Kobenz’s “Sour Lemon” garnered millions of streams, was spun at major radio stations, and was featured on countless media outlets such as EARMILK, Visual Atelier 8, The Hype Magazine, and HipHopSince1987. “Sour Lemon” was also chosen by Rock legend Oli Sykes of Bring Me the Horizon as one of his top five picks for the Spotify editorial playlist, “Misfits 2.0.” Kobenz capitalized on the success of “Sour Lemon” and followed up with several critically-acclaimed releases that raised his status in the underground scene. Kobenz recently completed a tour with mainstream Alternative artist Call Me Karizma. Kobenz’s latest release, “Diary of a Simpy Kid,” has already racked up over 150,000 streams in its first week. Kobenz’s unique, gritty, and emotive sound is what the industry has been missing and waiting for.
