Kenji Wu Ke Qun (Simplified Chinese: 吳克群; pinyin: Wú Kèqún, born 18 October 1979) is a singer-actor from Taiwan. He made his debut in 2000 with his sophomore album Tomorrow, Alone. Despite the involvement of top producers, the album only received lukewarm response. This gave him opportunities to act in idol dramas such as Peach Girl and Moonlight Forest.
However, with an intense passion for music, Kenji made a comeback to the music industry in November 2004 with a self-titled album, released by Seed Music. All ten songs in the album were written by him. Critics around Asia gave highly positive reviews. The hit song Wu Ke Qun cleverly incorporated the impersonations of well-known singers such as A-do, Lee-Hom Wang and The Shins.
He returned in October 2005 with a new album titled The Kenji Show, also released by Seed Music. Working on a theme of having fun, the album comprises of songs with his style of simple yet intrigueing lyrics. He has nominated for the best Chinese male singer in Taiwan of the 2006 Golden Music Awards, but the award went to Lee-Hom Wang at last.
He recently released a new album entitled "A General Order" and again, all songs were written by Kenji himself showing his creativity. This time he experimented with the Chinese music style, therefore the title song was written in that way. Other chinese style songs including "Peaked You And Me" and "Champion" as well as the hit ballad "Cripple" are featured on his latest album.
