NwaAmaikpe:

Contemporary music history is incomplete without Akon.
Dude killed autotune and brought the crispy twing factor to R&B; a style that will be echoed on by Tpain.

There was nothing stopping him, he had conquered America; had the globe eating out his palms and even superstars became his fans that looked up to him like groupies.
Then it stopped.

Akon's biggest undoing was to start collaborating with Nigerian musicians.
An act he did solely to help their career and introduce them to the world.
But it backfired.

That was the beginning of the global music industry's classification of him as a joke.
No matter how good Tuface is, Paul McCartney will never agree for a feature.
Or Bono with Davido.
That is real class.

He doesn't even make the cut of most influential Blacks anymore.
Even Diddy left him out of his own list of influential blacks.

Now dude is trying to use philanthropy to regain the relevance music gave him that he lost .

Moral of the story.
Lions don't roll with swines.
It is not arrogance,
It is not pride.

Some people are better off helped from afar.

A true reflection of the their sorry state

I actually think it's a blessed state.....

It strengthens the African identity and I feel it's actually the reason why most Of these foreign attention is coming to us now, revenue is increasing, production quality would automatically follow, then we can stake a claim in the international markets backed by robust local support.

This is a strategy that has some hope and we are glad that this progress is happening now.

Your analogy is all wrong. While I am not an ardent fan of Akon I am aware that the "Afrobeat" genre he helped support is booming in America and even Europe. I have heard American youths listening to Davido or Wizkid music on the streets. Akon understand America. Unlike a typical African-America he is connected to Africa and this adds to opportunities on his table. He said America was not created for black people. I felt he has more he want to do beyond music which he can never achieve in the USA. There is a story of a black man that invented a machine that create water from air (yes, air). He transported the machine to a neighbourhood that had water supply issue. Someone that was not happy with the man and his machine vandalized it overnight. In Anerica, for you to succeed and do really big thing you need a white person or a jew pulling the strings from behind. This apply to almost all the wealthy black Americans. If you dont want to play that game, then you need a different territory to conquer on your own. I'll rather have Akon running a company that install solar powered electricity across Africa than have a Chinese, Indian or a Caucasian do the same thing.
