Vinicius William Sales de Lima (born 16 February 2002), known as Wiu (stylized in all caps) is a Brazilian rapper and composer. He is recognized for his singles such as "Felina", "Horas Iguais", "Coração de Gelo" and the album Manual de Como Amar Errado, released in 2022.
Career
Born in Fortaleza, Ceará, Lima had a strong connection to hip-hop when he was a child, producing music at a young age, using the music production program FL Studio. At the age of 14, in 2017, he released his first song, "Trvpical Mixtape", as an independent singer through SoundCloud and YouTube under the name W$LL. In 2019, he was invited by Matuê to be part of the 30Praum record label. That same year, Lima released his first single "Sucrilhos". In 2021, he signed a contract with Sony Music under licence from 30Praum. Lima worked on the production of Máquina do Tempo, Matuê's debut album.
In 2022, he released his first album Manual de Como Amar Errado, with influences of trap, reggaeton and afro pop. Lima has received certifications from Pro-Música Brasil for the singles "Coração de Gelo", "Vampiro" and "Mantém", earning 3× diamond, 3× diamond and 2× platinum, respectively. In 2024, Lima released his second studio album, Vagabundo de Luxo, a trap album that incorporates experimental elements. The track "Rainha da Finesse" combines trap influences with jersey club, funk carioca and reggaeton. That same year, he collaborated with Teto on the song "Problemas de um Milionário".
