Akon Collaborates With the King of Pop

Uncategorised

Michael wants to return to the top of the United States’ best song charts, and for this purpose he has asked Akon, the Black singer who currently has the number one song “Don’t Matter,” to collaborate with him.

The two were supposed to meet in Las Vegas last week, but that meeting was canceled due to Akon’s prior obligations. However, he hopes to meet the King of Pop by the end of April.

Akon told Rolling Stone magazine: “I’m excited because I think we’ll make a great duo.”

“All the things Michael is going through right now, all the things he’s been through over these two years, the things the media has said about him, the things that haven’t been said… I think he just needs to take all of this and put it into his songs. It’s an incredible story.”

“No one has really heard Michael’s story until now. If he uses these things and accepts what has become public and shares his own opinion, expresses his feelings, and tells what he has felt in his songs, I think it will bring his entire album to another level— because now the album becomes his life story, and that’s what people will want to know about.”
