SOULNATION - A Glimpse into.... Akon


Born in Dakar, Senegal, Akon rose to fame in 2004 following the release of single “Locked Up” from debut album “Trouble”. His second album, “Konvicted”, even went so well to earn him a Grammy Award nomination for the single “Smack That”. He is the founder of Konvict Muzik and Kon Live Distribution. In 2005, he released the single "Lonely" (which samples Bobby Vinton's "Mr. Lonely"). Akon's "Lonely" became the longest running single on the top of the chart, spanning over fifteen weeks. The song reached the top five on the Billboard Hot 100, and topped the charts in Australia, the UK and Germany. He is the only artist to ever hold both the number one and two spots at the same time on the Billboard Hot 100 charts twice.
