Davaagiin Ulambayar (Mongolian: Даваагийн Уламбаяр; born 6 November 1982), known professionally as Uka (Mongolian: Ука), is a Mongolian singer, actress, and TV personality. Born into a family of eight, she first gained attention as a member of a girl group "Kiwi" in 2004.[1] With her trademark blonde hair, and unorthodox dance moves, she was often the face of the group. After her band went inactive in 2014, she pursued a solo career. She has since released four studio albums, "I am in love" (2015), "11.06" (2015), "Hug-Jim" (2017), and "Don't Stop" (2018).[2]
Uka was one of the four judges in the first season of a Mongolian talent show, "The Voice of Mongolia", alongside Otgonbayar, Bold, and Ononbat. The eventual winner, Enguun Tseyendash, was selected from her team, "Team Uka".[3]
Her single, "Don't Stop", was included in the "Asian Top Hip Hop" album in 2018.[4] Uka is considered to be one of the most innovative modern artist in Mongolia.[5][6]
