This year marks the 10 years since WHY? first formed back in 2004 in Berkeley, CA. The alternative hip hop group was started by Yoni Wolf, and today we have news regarding both.
WHY?’s last album, Mumps, Etc, came out back in 2012, but today the band has shared a music video for the track “Waterlines.” It’s straightforward in its shots, showing nothing but Wolf rapping sartorially in some shades against a yellow wall, but effective all the same. Watch it after the jump.
Along with the video comes news that both WHY? and Yoni Wolf (solo) will be touring. The band will hit up middle America in April and then Wolf will do several solo rap shows in Arizona and California in May with Serengeti. See the full list of dates below.
