Akolor was born Kodjo Akolor on June 15th, 1981, in Danderyd, Stockholm and was raised in the small community of Vallentuna, right outside of Stockholm. He is the son of Grace Mahama and Say Akolor, both of Ghanaian descent.

His parents came to Sweden from Ghana in 1980 and shortly after Kodjo Akolor was born.Growing up as the only black kid in the neighborhood, Akolor often had to stand up for himself. He was never into sports but instead developed an interest for comedy growing up watching amongst many other shows Raw and Delirious by Eddy Murphy.

And it was his love for film and movies during his younger years that later on drove him to pursue a career in entertainment.Akolor attended the Södertörn University in Stockholm, where he majored in Business and Economics.

It was there that he with the help of his then girlfriend and later on wife decided to give stand-up comedy a shot and went to attend a comedy course in Svalöv the summer of 2005. And his journey begun.

He started out as a stand up comedian on August 23th, 2005, at a small underground club in Stockholm called Ove med Skägget. After about 6 months performing at similar clubs (Big Ben, Syster & Bror etc) he got discovered by Marcus Palm and Mårten Andersson and asked to perform at a more regular basis at their clubs.

He was still studying at the University and took a break from comedy when he went on a study abroad semester in Paris. On his return to Sweden he was even more determined to pursue his career as a comedian and was shortly after that (2008) asked to be the side kick on Swedens got talent - the Swedish version of America's Got Talent.

In the fall of 2009 he was asked to be one of the hosts of Morgonpasset i P3 - a morning show on the Swedish radio. Morgonpasset helped establish his appeal as one of the voices of Swedish radio and was later on followed by his role as one of the hosts of Musikhjälpen (Music Aid) - collaboration between Swedish radio and television aimed at raising money for various causes such as poverty and HIV.

He was asked to come back 4 years in a row.In 2014, Akolor was the main host for P3 Guldgalan - Sweden's most viewed music award show broadcast on Swedish radio and television and was the co-host for the same show in 2015.
