About NUKU:

Michael Nuku, a.k.a NUKU, is a Ghanaian artist who was raised in Tema. He started writing songs when he was 14 years old. However, he began his career in the showbiz industry as a small screen actor.

NUKU is known for his smooth vocals, amazing dance moves, boy-next-door charm and got his first role as an inspector named CID TED on Ghanaian drama TV series "THE UNIT – SPECIAL CRIMES". As the years went by, he got more roles on a variety of TV series and movies.

Growing up in Tema, NUKU enjoyed singing in his church choir. He has cited a number of artists as his inspiration, predominantly Michael Jackson. NUKU emphasizes "Michael Jackson is the reason why I do music and why I am an entertainer". Like MJ, NUKU also shows off his dance prowess by imitating the choreography of another one of his idols, Usher. Gaining popularity as small screen actor, NUKU couldn't resist trying his hand at the music industry and has released a couple of indie songs including, "Backa Bombay", "Vibely" and "Hacienda".

NUKU developed a close relationship with REKX BEATZ who became his protege after making songs with the beat moguls. Under the assistance of the REKX BEATZ founders, he worked on an EP titled "RED" and dropped the effort in October, 2016. In the set, he joined forces with other Tema artists including Kelvin Black, Kay So, Robby Adams and a few more.
