“Upon hearing the seductive, ethereal sounds of The XX, not many people would think of Notorious B.I.G. Taking The XX debut album, 24-year-old New Yorker, Charlie, has laid Biggie’s lyrical mastery over the beats of the London four-piece. The mash up explores yet another side to the long deceased rapper's vocal styles and creates a new brand of hip hop infused with indie Brit flavour. Stand out tracks include: 'Islands is the Limit', 'One More Chance For A Heart to Skip a Beat' and 'Everyday Shelter'. We're not too sure what the band think about the pairing... Watch this space for further comment.“
