I'm not a fan of Akon, but this song is amazing.

There was a period of time he was constantly coming with some amazing stuff... he kinda took a long switch off with his solo stuff though.

"Ghetto" is a great song.
"So fly" too.
Also "Don't matter".

I'm gonna listen to The Rain and Tired of Runnin' and others pointed.

I used to dowload everything from him, but most of the songs turned out to be weak features with stupid beats, so I stopped.

I haven't checked him for a while, but for me he's got classic songs.

I listened to Freedom ALOT. Went to his concert too!! Loved it. Akon was coming with the hits. I feel like his categorization as a rapper held him back but he makes some pretty nice tracks man.

I was a fan back in the days. Guess I can't get into any of his new stuff. But that's not important now.

He's a good singer and quite a famous Artist here. He did a song for a Bollywood movie which was kinda irky....

I'll post my Favs:

Mr. Lonely
Sorry, Blame It On Me(His best)
Ghetto
Smack That feat Eminem
I Wanna Love/Fuck You feat Snoop
Belly Dancer
[Rollefsen] - SajN retired, bitch got old, unlike Sams "ladies".

Locked up put him on... it was fire. Styles P straight murdered it too! I liked his collaborations & him been hook artist for other artist more than his solo songs to be honest though.
