Ukendt Kunstner (English: "Unknown Artist") were an Copenhagen-based Danish urban duo with R&B influences and was made up of rapper Hans Philip and record producer Jens Ole Wowk McCoy.[1] They were signed to the label Sony Music Denmark.

The duo started under the name Skørmand before changing it to Ukendt Kunstner and gained their fame through their first album Neonlys and the title track from the album. In 2013, they were nominated for "Danish Urban Release" during the Danish Music Awards[2] and in 2014 nominations for P3 Guld for "P3 Talent" and "P3 listening hit".[3] In 2014, they released their follow-up album Forbandede Ungdom. At Danish Music Awards 2014, they won the prize as "Årets Danske Gruppe", which translates to "Danish Group of the Year".[4] In December 2016, they announced that they had decided to stop making music together.
