William Irvin Matthews III (WMIII) is an Artist x Advocate from Los Angeles California offering hope to anyone on the margins.
WMIII is a genre bending, boundary-pushing independent pop artist, bringing his clever lyricism, lush melodies, and genre-bending creativity to the forefront. The first single from his upcoming 6 song mixtape, “Oops!”—a bold, catchy exploration of joy and self-reclamation—releases June 13th.
THE PAST
From 2010 to 2016, he was the first solo artist signed to Bethel Music, helping shape a global sound that defined a generation of modern worship. His songwriting and voice were featured on multiple #1 Billboard albums and became a featured artist on their worldwide tours, garnering over 100 million streams. But his greatest legacy from that era may be the doors he opened—for Black & Brown artists within Christian Music.
In 2017, WMIII joined The Liturgists Podcast, becoming a powerful voice at the intersection of spirituality, justice, and identity. His work as an advocate for racial equity, queer liberation, and climate justice has been featured in documentaries, national platforms, and spaces often closed to people like him.
