AKRIILA

AKRIILA, born Fernanda Sepúlveda Tapia on October 17, 2004, in Maipú, Santiago, Chile, is quickly becoming one of the most exciting voices in Latin urban music. Emerging during the pandemic in 2020, she carved out a space of her own with a hypnotic blend of trap, reggaeton, and progressive pop. Her sound is marked by dreamy synths, honest lyrics, and an emotional rawness that resonates with a generation seeking both vulnerability and edge.

Her debut album Epistolares, released in 2024, pushed boundaries by weaving in elements of drum & bass and progressive electronica. Praised by critics for its innovation and emotional depth, the album solidified AKRIILA’s position as a leading figure in the evolving Latin music landscape.

A true genre-bender, she’s collaborated with notable Chilean artists like Young Cister, SOULFIA, and Gianluca, further showcasing her versatility. Her electrifying live shows—especially at major festivals like Lollapalooza Chile and Primavera Sound—have only amplified her growing influence.

But AKRIILA isn’t just about sound. She’s also built a striking personal aesthetic, which she humorously describes as “cute and horny”—a reflection of her fearless embrace of both softness and power. This blend of style and substance has made her a queer icon in South America, with fans proudly declaring, “Hot gays listen to AKRIILA!”
