Oct 22, 2010Yikes! Akon was always good, but this album is pretty awesome even for him. Almost every song is well writen and runs to a catchy tune. Keep it up, Kon!

RodericRAug 22, 2009Very solid album, worth many listens, and a couple gems on here. Between Akon, Lil Wayne, T-Pain, and Timbaland we've gotten some great music.

JeyCDec 22, 2008This record entails some of the best work akon has ever done. Mixture of melodious tones, catchy words and phrases, explains why the man is in demand.

RobbieDDec 3, 2008I honestly rate this a 7.5 good album but I dont see any club hits on here. Where's the party music that we know akon for (other then right na na na).

Akon sounds more comfortable than expected, and he reduces the lechery in favor of longing ("I wanna make up right now") and awe ("When I see you, I run out of words to say"). At times, the tensionless backdrops don't inspire Akon to do much with his pen.
-
This tuneful, seemingly effortless set of sun-kissed pop reminds you why he's in so much demand.
-
Akon's philosophy of liberty also includes the freedom to reuse nearly identical hooks for 13 songs straight. That approach may bring him plenty money, but it yields only a few legitimately fun tracks, buried beneath a pile of boring retreads.
