XXLTARIK is a Moroccan-American singer, songwriter, and performer blending dark R&B, moody pop, and retro funk into hypnotic, high-intensity performances. Raised by a Moroccan opera singer who trained his voice yet forbade him from using it, XXLTARIK channels that contradiction into music that feels seductive, volatile, and emotionally charged. Known for relentless work ethic and immersive live shows, he has performed 45 shows in 60 days while building momentum both onstage and online. He is also a founding force behind The UNDRGRND, a New Jersey-based collective and speakeasy cultivating a new generation of artists outside the mainstream spotlight.
