Who is Akash?

“Growing up, I moved all up and down the East Coast. From living in New Jersey, Delaware, Tennessee, and Alabama, I finally claim Birmingham as my home.”

Akash’s electric stage presence and fun wordplay energizes audiences and gets the heads bobbin’. His music and production ushers a sense of nostalgia of true hip-hop melodies while still keeping it fresh. Pulling from his life experiences, Akash’s discography ranges from relatable break-up ballads, to braggadocios bangers, to strip club anthems.

Akash grew up listening to predominately hip-hop. As he matured, as did his artistic taste. Primarily influenced by Lil’ Wayne & Drake, Akash also loves artists such as Glass Animals, The Black Keys, TheWeeknd, and George Ezra.
