The pair subsequently moved to London, Ontario after high school. In 1995, Yas and Bobby were invited to perform with a punk rock band.[3] The two groups decided to merge. The hip-hop group Project Wyze evolved into a rap rock band including members Adam Arsenault (guitar), and Tye Thomas (bass). The band started writing new music and they released their first EP, Trapz of Poetic Poison, on an indie label in 1996.[2] Project Wyze toured the United States in 1998, performing with artists like Papa Roach and the Step Kings.[3]
After the success of the first EP, the band enlisted the talents of Sasha Kosovic (guitar), Brad Dean (drums) and Elie Abdelnour (bass) to round out the line-up. In 2000, with the new band established, Project Wyze released a longer sophomore EP, Only If I Knew.[2] Growing record sales and an expanding fan base grabbed the attention of major labels.[2] They subsequently signed to Sony Music and released their major label debut, Misfits.strangers.liars.friends, in 2001. That album spawned the Canadian hit singles "Nothing's What it Seems" and "Room to Breathe". Their major label debut, misfits.strangers.liars.friends, was released in 2001.[3][4] That year the band performed at Edgefest II in Toronto.[5]
After internal conflicts, members of the band started to disband. Yas and Bobby formed Dead Celebrity Status as a side project. It later became a main project in which both of the vocalists devote their time to.
