Kachi Annuncia is a Nigerian gospel singer-songwriter who has caught the attention of many with his exceptional songwriting and storytelling. Known for his profound lyrics, soulful vocals, and stellar melodies, Kachi began his music career with the 2022 single “The Gratitude." He became widely recognized with the release of "GOTC (God of The Calm)," which went viral on social media, raking over a million views on TikTok. He describes his music as personal and vulnerable.

Born Onyekachi Annuncia Chukwumah, Kachi inherited his love for music from his father, who constantly played classics from Dolly Parton, Michael Jackson, R. Kelly, Brenda Fassie, Bob Marley, and others. Having nurtured a deep passion for music, the Afro-Gospel artist joined the children's choir at his church. There, he also showcased his talent by playing the drums. He also got inspired to write songs after listening to the child group Destiny Kids. He describes those days as his earliest memory of wanting to be a songwriter.

Kachi Annuncia decided to make music professionally in 2015 as an alternative to not being able to further his education. He cites artists such as Michael Jackson, Chris Brown, and Justin Bieber as influences. In the Christian music scene, he looks up to various artists, including Travis Greene, Todd Dulaney, Blessing Offor, Marizu, Jonathan McReynolds, Mail Music, Terrain, and Madison Ryann Ward. His dream collaboration is with Zimbabwe-born R&B gospel diva Annatoria.
Since his official debut in 2022, he has dropped uplifting singles such as "Holy Water," "fightin' demons," "Not Alone," and "Promises." Kachi Annuncia has also worked with Nigerian gospel musician Peterson Okopi as a background vocalist on recordings and stage. He further lent his pen to co-write his hit song, "Victory Dance." Kachi Annuncia seeks to share real-life experiences on the Christian faith through his music and correct misconceptions concerning one's walk with God. Away from writing and co-producing songs, Kachi Annuncia enjoys indulging in video games, swimming, football matches, culinary adventures, and traveling.
