Biography
Gyakie, born Jackline Acheampong, is a Ghanaian singer and songwriter recognised for her soulful vocals and distinctive blend of Afro-fusion, R&B and Highlife. Drawing from her musical upbringing as the daughter of legendary Highlife musician Nana Acheampong, she has developed a sound that bridges contemporary African music with classic influences.
She gained international recognition with her 2020 breakout single Forever, which became a continental hit and received an international boost through its remix featuring Nigerian singer Omah Lay. Following her debut EP, Seed (2020), and sophomore project, My Diary (2022), Gyakie released her debut studio album, After Midnight, in August 2025.
