About The Artist

Wale's commercial presence remained at a high level during the latter half of the 2010s. He received a boost as one of the several artists on "Ride Out," recorded for the Furious 7 soundtrack. Influenced by the TV sitcom Seinfeld but hardly lightweight in much of its subject matter, The Album About Nothing landed in March 2015 and became Wale's second number one album. Usher, Jeremih, and J. Cole were among the guests, while Jerry Seinfeld himself acted as narrator. A series of singles that began near the end of 2016 -- including "My PYT," Wale's seventh Top 20 R&B/hip-hop single -- led to Shine, issued in May 2017. After parting ways with Atlantic, Wale signed with Warner and returned in 2018 with a trio of EPs: It's Complicated, Self Promotion, and Free Lunch. The next year, he scored a number 22 pop hit with the Jeremih collaboration "On Chill," and followed it that October with Wow...That's Crazy, an album that entered the Billboard 200 at number seven. Along with collaborations like "Won Le Ba" with Davido and Shizzi, 2020 brought a new Wale EP called The Imperfect Storm. He teamed up with Westside Gunn and Smoke DZA in early 2021 for the wrestling-themed Griselda release "The Hurt Business." Later in the year, Wale issued "Angles" featuring Chris Brown and "Down South" with Maxo Kream and Yella Beezy. Those two singles appeared on Folarin II, an October arrival that hit the Billboard 200 at number 22.
