“One of the most creative mashups I’ve ever seen and definitely one of my favorites. The xx's music brings about a whole new side to Biggie's vocals, making them seem perhaps more heartfelt and sincere.  I can't quite place why it seems that way to me, but it does and it's awesome.  Whenever the intros for each song finish and the verse parts start and Biggie's vocals come in, it seems like the xx's music has more of a direction than it normally does, which certainly helps it.  When the xx's vocals come in, it seems like the perfect chorus to round out the songs to make them very balanced.”

“If you haven’t heard of 
wait what yet, your playlist is due for an update. Wait what, (aka Columbia alum Charlie Kubal, CC ’08) released his first album last Thursday called The Notorious xx (click for free download), a mash up of Biggie and The xx. It’s caught on: NYMag, Prefix Mag, and the general worldwidewebz have given the mashup their kudos.”
