Akuvi (born Akuvi Kumoji) is a Norwegian-Ghanaian artist from a musical family in Ghana's Volta Region — her father Kofi Kumoji and sister Anna-Lisa Kumoji are also musicians. She began her music career while studying in Cape Town, South Africa, and now moves between Norway and Ghana, blending Afro-fusion, soulful R&B, Afrobeats and hip-hop into a genre-crossing sound.
She placed in the Top 3 of Norway's 'Battle of the Stars' and reached the final of Norway's Eurovision pre-selection, Melodi Grand Prix. Beyond music, she voices Dolores in the Norwegian dub of Disney's Oscar-winning 'Encanto' and Karma in Ludacris's Netflix series 'Karma's World'. She has opened for artists including Stonebwoy and Shenseea, performed at AfroFuture Festival, and released the Stonebwoy-featuring single 'Dream Big' in early 2026.
