DL: Celebration Remix (Feat. Akon) Timbaland is back with a new single, which is the lead in for up-coming LP “Shock Value 2″. This cut features long-time collaborator Nelly Furtado, and newcomer SoShy. Pretty much your typical Timbo club song.

Akon admits he didn't try too hard to not be disrespectful in latest hit

10 Nov 2009 14:08:54 PST

Written by histriomatrix
Akon admits there are probably more ways of describing a woman being attractive rather than simply saying “Damn girl” or calling her a sexy “whatever.” He claims that when he began attempting to think of different descriptions, he drew a blank. So, he turned to other modern hip hop music.

No. 47: Akon, “Sorry, Blame It On Me”

20 Oct 2009 12:00:16 PDT

Written by Maura
Yes, that’s right: Everything that happened on that stage is the fault of bad parenting and even worse bouncing, and also Akon apparently didn’t have the Internet while he was on tour with Gwen Stefani. Also, dude, Verizon dumped you and you’re still going to name-drop the brand in your son...

Written by cfroeverywhere
Akon has been a fixture on the hip-hop scene since his collaboration with Styles P, “Locked Up.” Styles P is a beast on the microphone! Here’s another random thought: I think Akons current single “I’m So Paid” was a bad song to release during a recession. I don’t doubt that “Freedom” will sell...

Kardinal Offishall ft. Akon - 'Dangerous'

03 Nov 2008 04:41:35 PST

Written by Fraser McAlpine
But we're not here to talk about squeaky old Akon, are we? Even if he does represent about 65% of all the vocalising contained within this song. His isn't the face on the packaging after all. That would be Kardinal Offishall (of the province of Dyslexia, presumably).

Music Review: Akon - Konvicted

22 Mar 2007 06:22:22 PDT

Written by Thomas Rodriguez
Like any modern R&B/Rap album, there has to be a club joint or two. Akon covers that beautifully with the Eminem feature "Smack That." The lyrics are typically booty, but for what it is, it’s as enjoyable as anything else on the record. Eminem, however poor his rhymes have been as of late, a...
