Bio
wait what fused the debut record of British indie rock group The xx with vocals from The Notorious B.I.G., and created the notorious xx, which quickly garnered critical acclaim from New York Magazine, Rolling Stone, The New Yorker, and The Guardian UK, who dubbed it “the best mashup album of 2010” — it received over one million downloads.
Since then, he teamed up with Dave Eggers’ 826 Valencia and indieshuffle.com to release a mixtape, this is real life, under a pay-what-you-want model, raising over $10,000 for 826 Valencia, a youth writing non-profit.
With four albums to tour on, wait what's live performances have taken them all over, from Fashion Week in Toronto, a club show in Kigali, Rwanda, playing at the top club in Bangkok, and performing with artists including Lil Wayne, Wiz Khalifa, and Taking Back Sunday.
