Background

[edit]

Wilson co-wrote "4x4xU" with Jon Decious and Aaron Raitiere. Described as a soulful mid-tempo ballad, Wilson said the song is "about finding that someone that gives you the comfort and peace of home anywhere in the world as long as you're by their side".[2] She cited boyfriend, Devlin "Duck" Hodges, as inspiration for the love song: "The truth is, I write what I know, and I finally found a man worth writing about. So you know it's a love song because y'all probably thought, dang, she ain't got it in her, she ain't got it in her... but I do. I got me a cheerleader".[3]

Live performances

[edit]

Wilson performed the song on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on September 11, 2024.[4]

Wilson performed the song during her time co-hosting the 58th Annual Country Music Association Awards on November 20, 2024.[5] She was joined on stage by her full band and a string ensemble that included all three members of The Accidentals.[6] This version was released as its own live performance single on November 22, 2024.[7]

Music video

[edit]

The music video for "4x4xU" premiered on July 4, 2024.[8] It was directed by Dano Cerny,[3] and serves as a continuation to Wilson's music video for "Hang Tight Honey".[9] In it, Wilson trades out the tour bus from "Honey" for the shotgun seat of an old pickup truck, with her leaning out the window and counting her gig money as her male co-star drives, focusing on the aftermath of being on tour and home life.[10]
