WONTEN Set to Drop Emotional New Single “IF HEAVEN WAS A PLACE” on February 4
US-Based Liberian Artist Builds Momentum After Years of Steady Global Growth

Liberian-born, U.S.-based artist WONTEN is preparing to captivate listeners once again with the release of his upcoming single, “IF HEAVEN WAS A PLACE,” scheduled to drop on February 4.
Known for blending heartfelt storytelling with smooth contemporary sounds, WONTEN continues to carve a unique lane for himself in the global music space while proudly representing his Liberian roots.

The new track follows a wave of growing momentum for the singer. Last year, WONTEN saw a major surge in listenership across all major streaming platforms, signaling a widening international audience and a deepening connection with fans. His previous release, “Leave” featuring MC Caro, performed strongly and helped introduce his sound to new markets, further cementing his place among emerging African diaspora voices in modern music.
WONTEN’s career trajectory has been marked by notable chart success. His 2021 release “WHEN THE PARTY’S OVER” climbed to No. 11 on Apple Music Liberia, showcasing strong support from his home country. Even earlier, his 2019 single “OMARI” made an impact beyond West Africa, earning a chart position at No. 8 on iTunes South Africa — a milestone that highlighted his cross-regional appeal.
With “IF HEAVEN WAS A PLACE,” WONTEN is expected to deliver another emotionally resonant record that blends introspection with melodic depth. As anticipation builds, fans and new listeners alike are eager to see how this next chapter further elevates his growing international presence.
