“What You Waiting For?” is the lead single from Gwen Stefani’s debut solo album, Love. Angel. Music. Baby., released in 2004. The song was co-written by Stefani and Linda Perry and reflects Stefani’s anxieties about launching a solo career after her success with No Doubt. Lyrically, it explores themes of self-doubt, fear of failure, and pressure in the music industry, with the repeated question, “What you waiting for?” urging Stefani (and the listener) to take bold steps forward.
