Fantastic Negrito is a black roots music artist hailing from Oakland, California. His unique blend of blues with a punk attitude has captivated audiences worldwide. Formerly known as Xavier, Fantastic Negrito's music is a powerful expression of his personal experiences and struggles.

With his raw and soulful sound, Fantastic Negrito brings an authentic and captivating energy to the stage. His music resonates with people from all walks of life, transcending boundaries and connecting on a deep emotional level.

Whether he's performing solo or with his band, Fantastic Negrito delivers an electrifying live performance that leaves audiences wanting more. With each song, he tells a story that reflects the realities of our society while offering hope and inspiration for change.

Fantastic Negrito's album and short film White Jesus Black Problems was inspired by a search into his ancestry where he found that his 7th generation grandmother was a Scottish indentured servant who entered into a common law marriage with an African American enslaved man, his 7th generation grandfather, in open defiance of the racist laws of 1750's colonial Virginia. Their love story is a healing testament to standing up against inhumane and brutal systems with love as your only weapon. Their perseverance is a lesson in today's polarized society on the virtues of constant struggle in the face of ignorance, fear, and violence, which is still present in the contemporary embodiments of white supremacy, bigotry, and hatred. It's important to tell the story of how those who suffered much greater indignities and violence than we do in contemporary times were nonetheless able to preserve their humanity through human connection and the determination to love. If they can do it in 1759, we can do it 2022.
