W4 Adewale Adepoju a.k.a W4, ventured into music scene in 2005 after he released his debut album “Temperature”.
My name is Adewale Adepoju, I am from Osun State, from a family of four, I started appearing in the music scene in 2005 with my debut album “Temperature”. In JSS 2, I indicated my love for music and in 2004, I took the bold step and I thank God today for my decision. The content and my sense of uniqueness in my debut album have taken me to the level I am today and I give a lot of respect to my fans because they are the ones that made me what I am today. I am trying to make ‘Mr. Wonder’, a more anticipated album so as to appreciate the love they have for me.
On the other hand, I was working on re-packaging myself, changing from W4 to W4 (Mr. Wonder) and when you are talking about wonder, you talk about change in everything, because wonder is what everybody wishes and desires. I am really transforming myself to Mr. Wonder.
I am transforming myself from W4 to W4 Mr. Wonder, ‘Mr. Wonder’ is the title of my next album. I have now standardized myself, I am just trying to exhibit it in this new album (Mr. Wonder), my next album will be showing the unique part of me, replicating some cultures from Fela Anikulapo Kuti (The Great One); it’s a different thing entirely, Mr. Wonder is made up of vocal, lyrics, rhymes, new messages and good music. In the album, I have J-Sleek, Filso production, Spanky, Jiggy Jag and a whole lot of young talented producers.
Yes, the album would be released after my new video, Kontrol. I recently dropped new three singles- ‘Kontrol’,’ Do Something’ and ‘Sexy Swagger’, they are all great tracks, these tracks will be a preface for the album.
Firstly, God Almighty, and also to my former label record (Hypodrum music); when I recorded my debut album, ‘Temperature’, they stood solidly behind me. My story will not be complete without Hypertek Music, Baron squad (Basket Mouth), Naija Ninja (Sound Sultan), OJB, My Tunes from Brooklyn, Kennis Music and most importantly, my fans. It’s been wonderful having great people behind me
