Akuvi’s Let Me Know, dropped November 2025, lives in that uncomfortable space between wanting someone and wondering if they’ll wreck you.
The Norwegian-Ghanaian artist captures paranoia set to an Afro-fusion groove. The production moves slowly, almost cautiously. Percussion rolls underneath like a heartbeat that won’t quite settle.
Her raspy vocals glide across it in English and Ewe, switching languages mid-thought the way you do when one tongue can’t quite capture what you mean.
There’s a dreamy quality to the soundscape, but it’s the anxious kind of dream where you’re waiting for something to go wrong.
“Baby you should let me know / What’s your intention” sounds simple until you remember how exhausting it is to ask that question.
Akuvi wrote the track about returning to dating after getting hurt, and that shows. The chorus doesn’t build to some triumphant moment, it just circles back to the same question because that’s what anxiety does.
The second verse gets more specific: “Mind is fixed but my body feels heavy.” That’s the disconnect, isn’t it?
Your brain’s made a decision but your gut’s still stuck in fight-or-flight mode. She admits “my own mind’s got me paranoid,” which feels more honest than pretending confidence she doesn’t have.
The song doesn’t end with her figuring it out or choosing to trust. She’s still asking. Still uncertain.
The Ewe sections, “Na Manya, wotame susuo kataa na manya,” add texture without feeling like decoration.
The production stays safe when a sharper edge might match the lyrical tension better. And while the vulnerability lands, there are moments where the melody gets a bit too comfortable in its loop.
Still, Akuvi’s carved out something specific here. Between opening for Shenseea and preparing for a December slot with Stonebwoy, she’s proving she can hold space for messy feelings without turning them into easy anthems.
“Let Me Know” won’t fix your trust issues, but it’ll sit with you while you work through them.
