Akon just came back here and talked our ears off. Where have I been? What am I doing backstage at the American Music Awards? I have never heard of Akon. But I kept listening to him talk hoping that the more he talked, something would click. But, nope. No idea.
But, as a working journalist with a press badge around his neck, I took some notes and this is what I know: He has the number one and two top selling CDs on the Billboard charts, he has produced for Gwen Stefani and scores of others. He started talking about Michael Jackson and I think he’s gonna work with the former King of Pop on something.
Anyway, Akon told us about the inspiration for his songs: “I was incarcerated and I write a lot, a lot of records. All the experiences I went through in my life, I wrote about them so when I got out, I’d start with a clean slate. Part of that slate includes a movie ab about his life he’d like to produce and direct and call “Illegal Alien.”
Very good written story. It will be supportive to everyone who utilizes it, as well as me. Keep doing what you are doing – looking forward to more posts.
