No sense Sensation

Suddenly everyone in town or rather music lovers all over the world are "Konvicted". Yes, its AKON everwhere!! Be it headphones while jogging or a cool party with friends-if its Akon your sure to have everyone grooving. Msn,yahoo or orkut,nicknames or personal messages are sure to have Konvict with all the extra $*$#!ss
Me being a self confessed 'serious' music listener (the ones with good beats and extra good lyrics) find myself tapping my feet to everything playing under the title 'Akon'. At a recent party I actually saw the DJ asking people if they wanted to hear something besides Akon as every second song requested was... you know what!!
A Senegalese African, AKON moved to the United States when he was seven. His family is headed by legendary percussionist and jazz musician Mor Thiam, whose expertise for playing the Djembe, a traditional African drum, has been touted as "unrivaled".
Whatever it is,but one things for sure, this dynamic singer/songwriter/producer's music (nonsense though it may be) is simply just lovable! AKON's personal appeal and ability to reach a listener with his distinctive vocals and a relaxed singing style is whats taking him places.
And now I'm off for a drive with friends and its sure to be Akon all the way:)
