By: Prime Media+
Akon is taking an unexpected turn with his music, re-recording this entire catalogue as country music
In an interview with the Recording Academy, the Lonely and Locked Up singer, now fully independent, said it is a passion project with a honky tonk twist.
“It’s an opportunity for me to actually do what I always wanted to do. Now that I’m fully independent and own my master recordings, I’m free to do what I need to do and put my money where I want to put it,” he says.
Akon is keeping things tight-lipped on the project, but hinted that it will be released by the end of the year.
In an interview shared on Instagram, Akon says, while it is what people expected, he can’t wait to see people enjoy it.
