## Caption

Genre-bending rapper and singer Akriila's catalogue is breathlessly eclectic and digital. The Chilean artist broke out in 2023 with a trap mixtape, then followed up with 'Epistolares', a debut album that was a noise-perreo-grunge-drum’n’bass mesh. Now, she's lining up a new record with singles informed by bedroom alt-pop and indie rock. This elasticity and energy make her one of the most exciting emerging artists right now.⁣
⁣
Expectations for Akriila back home are especially high, but she's not fazed by the pressure – just grateful to see how her art is resonating globally. "There’s a coherence in the project, the visuals, the shows, that is going beyond Chile," she says. "That’s my favourite part: live it in different places, meet people, sing together." ⁣
