Konvicted

UK pressing of the 2006 offering from Rap superstar Akon features one bonus track: 'Gringo'. Multi-Platinum singer/songwriter, producer and international phenomenon Akon returns with his sophomore album. Akon released his debut album Trouble in 2004, which included the singles 'Locked Up (Remix)' (featuring Styles P), 'Lonely', 'Bananza (Belly Dancer)', 'Pot Of Gold' and 'Ghetto'. 'Locked Up' reached the Top 10 in the U. S. and the Top 5 in the UK, and was written after Akon was jailed for three years for armed robbery. Recently, he gained more popularity after being featured in the song 'Soul Survivor' with rapper Young Jeezy and then with his own artist, T-Pain. Akon also has his own record label, called Konvict Muzik. Konvicted features Eminem, Snoop Dogg, Styles P and T-Pain. Debut ''Smack That'' video is directed by Benny Boom. Primarily self-produced by Akon, Konvicted challenges all previous assumptions. Akon's writing is prolific and the tracks are beautiful. Konvicted is an album full of smash, classic hits. Island.
