The story of Senegal born soul singer

After winning music fans over with his 2003 multi-platinum debut Trouble, Senegalese singer Akon returns with more stories from his personal journey via his sophomore CD Konvicted. If Trouble was Akon's ode to redemption (before his music career took off he served time for car theft), Konvicted picks up at rebirth. His mission now is to reinvent himself through his salvation - music.

"The son of accomplished jazz musician Mor Thiam, Akon was introduced to varied musical styles early on. I grew-up listening to all kinds of music. Obviously I love soul songs, but I also like mixing in other types of music, Akon confesses. For every Stevie Wonder track I've listened to, there is another by Steely Dan that helped shape me as an artist.

Although the hit single Locked Up earned him street credibility, the artists multifaceted sensibilities are evident on his second album. Akon produced and wrote all but one song on Konvicted.
