Akon - Muzik of a Convict

Release Date: 5/13/2008

This documentary follows the life of hip hop star Akon. It was in the USA that he discovered hip hop for the first time, as well as crime. He was eventually jailed, but he used the time to work on his musical ideas. Upon release, Akon began writing and recording tracks in a home studio. The tapes found their way to SRC/Universal, which eventually released Trouble, Akon's debut LP, in June 2004, churning out numerous successful hits. Over the years, he has collaborated, recorded or toured with high-flying artists such as Eminem, Gwen Stefani, Rihanna, Chamillionaire and Michael Jackson, as well as Smack That being nominated for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration at the Grammy Awards in 2006. Watch as we see how the only thing Akon is guilty of being Konvicted of is talented.
