Smack That

After generating a string of hits with his debut, Akon is back with a new, star-studded album, likely to match his former success. He is still showing his trademark African influenced vocal style, closer in tone to the serious but infectious repetition of “Locked Up”, than to the novelty record trickery of “Lonely”. The song’s biggest selling point is Eminem’s guest appearance, proving again that he hasn’t lost his Midas touch. Together they made quite a powerful act, irresistible for any fan of urban music.  shazam
