Wafeek

Wafeek (a.k.a. Wafeekee) was born and raised in St. Louis. After graduating from Soldan International Studies High School in 1998, he made a name for himself in the local hip-hop scene by forming the group Pangea, alongside his close friend and fellow emcee Rockwell Knuckles. He left the city in 2004 and briefly lived in Tucson, Arizona, before moving to Los Angeles, where he attended the prestigious Musicians Institute (famous alums include Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist John Frusciante and Weezer frontman Rivers Cuomo). He still lives in LA but maintains close ties with his hometown.
