Hey, who hates Akon?

Post by Captin Planit »

Hand raised.

I understand we just went through a thread comparing Akon and Pharrell. If you sided with Akon, this thread is not for you.

I understand people are impressed by his musical versatility. Again, this thread is not for you.

I don't wanna talk about his production. I like a lot of it.

But every time I hear his voice on a track, I've gotta change the station or skip the song. If I don't have that option, best believe I'm not enjoying a single moment of that dude's hoarse voice.

Who's staying on the hate train?

He has had his turn, and had his place when he first started out, but then he just saturated everything you know...and that song with Eminem is pretty lame if you ask me.

"Smack That" is dope for what it is and he gets props for making that video for "Ghetto." That's the closest a video on MTV has come to being socialist in a while.

There's a lot of other people to get pissed off about being famous, namely Tyrese and Usher.

this guy is the worst. i work with mentally ill adolescents and they all love this guy. i hear smack that 30 x a day when i'm at work. his voice sounds like it is run thru mad filters. like they're fixing his shit in the studio.

he does have three wives. i can support that.
