【§Konvict→Muzik】访谈:Estelle因Akon而感动 Estelle Talks Being Brought to Tears by Akon (Estelle因Akon而感动) While she was in town for the ESPY Awards, Estelle chatted with Rap-Up TV about her third album All of Me. The disc, due later this year, features contributions from Common (“Victorious”), Ne-Yo, Janelle Monáe, No I.D., and Jerry “Wonder” Duplessis, among others. The first single, “Break My Heart” featuring Rick Ross, is off to a great start. When it came to shooting the video, the British songbird said the Miami rapper was the perfect gentleman. “He was so sweet. He was such a gentleman and a really nice guy,” she revealed. “We had to stand behind the infinity pool and the first thing he said was, ‘Baby I got you.’ He was so nice and such a sweetheart about everything.” Before her album arrives, Estelle plans to release another song called “Thank You,” produced by Jerry Wonder and written by Akon. While she prefers to sing her own songs, she fell in love with the track the moment she heard it. “By the time it got to the chorus I was damn near crying,” shared Estelle. “It just resonated so much with me. I play it to my guy friends and they cry.” The next time she saw Akon at Kardinal Offishall’s birthday she told him just how impressed she was. “I hugged him. I said, ‘You sir are incredible.’ For a guy to write from a woman’s perspective and it be that real… You made my life right this second, thank you.”
【§Konvict→Muzik】Akon与Usher演唱会2011.5.1 Usher and Akon performed at the Colonial Life Arena in a high-energy night of pop and R&B Sunday. Akon, dressed in all white, took the stage to his customary beat drop and "Konvict" label shout-out, and immediately launched into his chorus on the well-known DJ Kahled track "We Takin' Over." The South Carolina fans — obviously excited for T.I.'s rap, which mentions their home state in the first verse — were left somewhat disappointed, as Akon delivered the song's hook and quickly moved on. Minutes later, he performed his Young Jeezy collaboration "Soul Survivor," substituting "Sou'Car'lina" for "Young Jeezy," in his introduction to the delight of the crowd. But this too was short-lived, as he merely sang the song's chorus and bridge before the music stopped abruptly and he stood smiling at the fans packing the arena. This proved to be indicative of Akon's performance. The strength of his act was also its weakness: he managed to fit almost every one of his hits into the brief opening performance by singing only the choruses of the majority of the tracks. This meant everyone got to hear their favorite songs, but only snippets of them. It was quickly clear just how much the singer has made his name by collaboration rather than recording songs of his own. He did sing a few songs all the way through, including a high-energy version of "Don't Matter" in which he played conga drums and invited the crowd to sing the melodic "oh-oh's" along with him. Akon's stage presence was notable. He engaged the crowd throughout, and women screamed as he peeled off his jacket and shirt and poured water on his bare chest. "Columbia, you got me feeling good up here tonight," Akon told the crowd. "Know why I feel so good?" he asked. Answering the question, he launched into his collaboration with comedy group The Lonely Island: "I Just Had Sex." Usher followed Akon minutes later with an electrifying set that started with a stage suspended in the air flying high over the crowd and eventually placing him with his dancers on the front stage.
