About

The recent Tiny Desk concert featured Fantastic Negrito as the winner of the contest among thousands of entries, showcasing his passionate performance of "Lost In A Crowd." Born Xavier Dphrepaulezz, this talented artist has faced numerous challenges in his life, including a near-fatal car accident that left him with limited use of his hands, which he refers to as "The Claw." Despite setbacks, Fantastic Negrito's music style spans blues, R&B, and roots music, leading to Grammy wins for Best Contemporary Blues Album for his albums "The Last Days of Oakland," "Please Don't Be Dead," and "Have You Lost Your Mind Yet?" His most recent album, "White Jesus Black Problems," was released in 2022. This Tiny Desk performance not only highlighted his remarkable backstory but also showcased his powerful voice and backing band, solidifying his well-deserved place behind the Tiny Desk.
