Biography
Charlotte Adigéry, a Belgian-Caribbean vocalist and narrator, shapes electronic pop that fuses styles while toggling between playful, reflective, and chic moods. Output under the WWWater alias arrives raw and punk-driven, yet her solo material—such as the 2019 Zandoli EP—presents multilingual dance-pop numbers that honor individuality and imaginative escape. Frequent collaborator Bolis Pupul joined her for the 2022 debut album Topical Dancer, whose incisive lyrics examine racism, sexism, and xenophobia.
Born in France to parents from Martinique and Guadeloupe, she spent her childhood in Ghent, Belgium. At 18 she supplied backing vocals for several Ghent-area groups, then began composing her own songs during a music course at a Hasselt college. Mutual acquaintances connected her with Belgian indie dance outfit Soulwax, which recruited her to perform on the early-2016 film soundtrack Belgica. Working next with producer Bolis Pupul, she delivered the self-titled Charlotte Adigéry EP—co-produced and mixed by Soulwax’s David & Stephen Dewaele—on the brothers’ Deewee label in 2017. Later that year her WWWater alter ego issued the five-song EP La Falaise. She appeared on Soulwax’s 2018 album Essential, after which her second Deewee release, Zandoli, surfaced in 2019. Before serving as opener for Neneh Cherry on a European tour, she issued the 17-minute spoken-word piece Yin Yang Self-Meditation, an ambient meditation in which she confronts insecurities and practices breathing exercises. Singles co-credited with longtime producer Pupul began appearing in 2021. Their 2022 full-length Topical Dancer offered a sharp, witty electropop set addressing cultural appropriation and political correctness.
