Kenny Wonder Releases a 3 in 1 EP/Album
by Alewa House, published 1 year, 4 months ago
Kenny Wonder is one of the music industry’s most significant unsung heroes. During a career that spanned more than twenty years, he changed the lives of many artists, engineers, mixers, producers, and music lovers in general. Without him, the music industry today would look very different.
He is the most consistent artist and producer and one of the most influential talents in the last two decades. Average fans know him for his greatness as an artist, but he is just as skilled as a music producer.
His musical contributions can be traced back to "Telli Person" for Timaya, and "Cinderela" for Olu maintain. He released his first album "One by One Hit" in 2006, and a jazz compilation, "Saxo-Vaccination" in 2020. These projects were widely accepted with positive reviews all over the world.
In 2022, he released several singles, which included "Smoothie", "Action" featuring Mai Zhafi, and "Hot Inside" featuring Orion.
He has worked with the likes of 2face aka 2Baba, Timaya, Olamide, Phyno, Victoria Kimani, Cecile, Olumaintain, Emma Nyra, Oritsefemi, CDQ, to mention just a few.
He places a strong value on the art of collaboration, which allows him to create entirely different sonic moods for each of his projects.
His latest project, "3in1" is a compilation of three new singles, which he is releasing on the same day. This project contains songs like "Yaro", "Mi Amor", and "Hustling & Balling" featuring KODii S.O.G.
The 3 In 1 project is officially released on the 2nd of December 2022.
