As the vibrant and dynamic world of the Karaoke World Championship (KWC) gears up for its highly anticipated 2025 World Finals in Thailand, Kazakhstan’s beloved songstress Akerke, alumna of KWC 2024, stands proudly as an inspiring figure in this global celebration of music. At just 22 years old, Akerke embodies the spirit of passion, resilience, and creativity that defines KWC’s international platform—now preparing to unite champions from around the globe on one extraordinary stage.
Last year, Akerke captivated audiences in Kazakhstan’s capital, elevating the nation’s presence within this prestigious music showdown that celebrates vocal talent and cultural diversity worldwide. Now, with the 2024 championship behind her, the young artist transitions gracefully from competitor to mentor and champion of her fellow singers. “It was a dream come true to compete in KWC last year,” Akerke reflects. “And this year, I’m cheering for every country’s champion. May the best voices shine and inspire.”
Her words resonate deeply with a community built on shared passion, cultural exchange, and artistic excellence. KWC, which began in 2003, has grown into a global phenomenon where amateurs and professionals alike discover new friendships, challenge themselves, and showcase unique musical identities. Akerke’s journey from a self-taught instrumentalist in Kazakhstan to an international ambassador for music embodies these ideals.
While she eagerly watches the unfolding of KWC 2025 in Thailand, Akerke herself is on the precipice of unveiling her debut single, “Fit No More,” later this year. This track promises to be a fresh, bold statement from the singer who combines heartfelt lyrics with an infectious contemporary sound. With this release, Akerke isn’t just sharing a song—she’s sharing a movement of youthful empowerment, independence, and fearless artistic expression.
Known for her versatility—balancing her love for high-heeled dance, competitive sports like basketball and track and field, and mastery over multiple instruments—Akerke brings to her music a unique energy that fuses athletic determination with artistic flair. Her journey of self-taught musicianship, juxtaposed against a family steeped in medicine, tells a story of courage and authenticity, inspiring many young creatives in Kazakhstan and beyond.
The 2025 KWC World Finals in Thailand represent not only a contest of voices but a gathering of cultures, stories, and dreams. Akerke’s warm wishes to this year’s competitors underscore the camaraderie that thrives within KWC’s framework: “Every champion has poured their heart and soul into their journey. I wish them all the best, and I’m so excited to see the magic that will unfold.”
As KWC continues to provide a platform where these voices break through boundaries and create lasting connections, singers like Akerke highlight how music transcends language and geography to unite us all. Her own natural fluency in English thanks to travel and passion illustrates the power of music as a universal language.
