Waje and Shoday have released “My Sunshine,” a heartfelt duet from the soundtrack of Funke Akindele’s upcoming film, The Four…no one fights alone!, set to hit cinemas on December 11, 2026. The song captures the deep emotional bond between a mother and her son, reflecting their on-screen characters—Esosa, played by Waje, and Obaloluwa, portrayed by Shoday. In the film, this relationship forms the core of a powerful narrative exploring how far a mother will go to protect and support her child.
“My Sunshine” is available for streaming on all major platforms, while the official music video can be viewed on FAAN_TV’s YouTube channel. The track blends Waje’s soulful vocals with Shoday’s melodic Afrobeats style, creating a harmonious blend that mirrors their characters’ connection. Both artists bring authenticity to their performances, enhancing the emotional weight of the story they are telling through music.
Set against the backdrop of Odu community and Lagos, The Four follows Esosa and three other women as they face challenges that test their courage, faith, and friendship. Motherhood and female resilience are central themes, giving the film’s tagline, “no one fights alone,” profound meaning. The movie stars an ensemble cast including Funke Akindele, Bisola Aiyeola, Chioma Akpotha, Richard Mofe-Damijo (RMD), Timini Egbuson, Lateef Adedimeji, Ali Nuhu, Uzor Arukwe, Ronke Oshodi Oke, Antar Laniyan, and Wunmi Toriola.
Directed and produced by Funke Akindele under her Funke Akindele Network, the film is distributed by FilmOne Entertainment. Akindele, known for hits like Omo Ghetto: The Saga, Battle on Buka Street, and A Tribe Called Judah, continues to champion Nigerian storytelling and nurture homegrown talent. Her work consistently highlights social issues and celebrates strong female characters, making The Four a natural extension of her artistic vision.
With its compelling music, powerful performances, and emotionally resonant storyline, The Four promises to be a landmark release in Nigerian cinema. As audiences prepare for its December 2026 premiere, “My Sunshine” serves as a touching preview of the love, sacrifice, and strength that define the film’s journey.
