Aklesso Joins Alienz Alive Roster

Aklesso has officially joined Alienz Alive, the faith-driven imprint led by Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins. The Miami-based Haitian-American rapper’s signing marks a pivotal moment in his career and signals an exciting new season for the label. Jerkins, a Songwriters Hall of Fame inductee, has shaped the sound of modern music, and his decision to invest in Aklesso highlights the artist’s rising influence.

To celebrate the announcement, Aklesso released “Prodigal!”, a raw and introspective single that previews his forthcoming album Still Lonely. The project follows last year’s Lonely, continuing his exploration of struggle, redemption, and resilience. His star has also risen through a standout feature on Lecrae’s Reconstruction album, where his verse on “Too Much” underscored both his lyrical depth and his authenticity as an artist.

On streaming platforms, Aklesso has built an impressive catalog that resonates deeply with listeners. Songs like “Climate Change,” “Wodie,” “Get Em,” “Worst Year,” and “Baker Act” stand among his most popular, each blending sharp lyricism with heartfelt storytelling. His collaborations have also been widely celebrated, including the impactful “Climate Change” with Wordsplayed and Gawvi, as well as multiple projects alongside Gawvi that showcase his creative versatility.

With momentum building behind his new single, a highly anticipated album on the way, and the legendary Darkchild providing label support, Aklesso is poised to expand his reach beyond music. He is stepping forward as a cultural voice, merging faith, authenticity, and artistry to inspire audiences around the world.
