AKIA - DUMBCRAZY (EP)

AKIA Drops New EP 'DUMBCRAZY' as Buzz Builds Around Rising R&B Star.

Atlanta’s rising R&B powerhouse AKIA is back with CRAZY, her sophomore EP and the next chapter in her DUMB CRAZY STUPID series — a playful nod to TLC’s “CrazySexyCool”. Following the breakout success of “DND” and the viral momentum of “Pajamas,” CRAZY cements AKIA’s place as one of 2025’s most exciting new voices.

Released as part of Apple Music’s Black Music Month campaign, the three-track project blends vulnerability, sensuality, and sharp production — from the dreamy “BACK IN BED WITH YOU” to the slow-burning “LOVE SOMEBODY.” AKIA describes it as her “favourite EP out of all three,” promising fans a showcase of her versatility.

With early support from Billboard, VIBE, COLORS Berlin, and a standout Dreamville Fest performance, the Forrest City native is clearly in ascendance. Having already earned co-signs from Jermaine Dupri and GloRilla, and with a possible London date on the horizon, AKIA’s star is only getting brighter.
