小簡介
Akon是穆斯林人,出生自非洲西部的陌生國度塞內(nèi)加爾的Akon,七歲時隨父親舉家搬到美國的紐澤西,從第三世界進入水泥叢林,akon始終郁郁寡歡,好在他運動神經(jīng)發(fā)達的本錢讓他拿到籃球獎學(xué)金,順利進入大學(xué),無奈就當他意氣風發(fā)、立志成為職業(yè)球員時,不幸摔壞了膝蓋。天生反骨的akon開始在街頭討生活,甚至還因為偷車被逮入獄,三年的苦牢讓他徹底洗心革面,決心走上正途,于是akon透過音樂、用音樂紀錄生活,一人身兼詞曲創(chuàng)作/制作編曲,推出首張大碟《愛情煩惱trouble》。好歌不寂寞,專輯一推出就連坐英國金榜2周冠軍和R&B榜6周冠軍,首支單曲"Lonely"也空降英國金榜冠軍蟬連2周。被紐約時報譽為“塞內(nèi)加爾的驚喜”,寂寞先生akon特有的騷靈嗓音讓每首歌都充滿全新生命,不論是輕柔饒舌的歌曲、還是派對勁歌都有自己的風格,就像聽到一個最原始的非洲靈魂對你親聲吟誦一段段街頭故事。未來還可能會參選塞內(nèi)加爾總統(tǒng)的阿肯,就要走出寂寞,為你歌唱。(不過前一陣 akon對記者說,看了電視劇《24小時》,他覺得作總統(tǒng)是很可怕的事,他放棄了。呵呵,當然 ,這只是個玩笑)
【音樂之路】
源于對父親的崇拜,akon對音樂的熱愛是根深蒂固的,最終他還是走上了音樂的路。akon一開始投入數(shù)種打擊樂器的演奏,隨后還是愛上了嘻哈音樂,雖然起初他對此頗不以為然,“我第一次聽到嘻哈音樂的時候,我覺得那真是垃圾~~,只因為我不了解人們?yōu)槭裁匆谜f的方式來詮釋音樂。但當我開始長大,有了點生活體驗、再仔細聽那些歌詞之后,我發(fā)現(xiàn)我的生活與那些饒舌者所唱念的歌詞有了印證,我可以感同身受!
嘻哈進入了他的生命,akon的音樂之途從此不可限量,他開始專注于創(chuàng)作、制作他自己的音樂!癝how Out”就是一首關(guān)于嘻哈如何影響他的歌曲,在疏落卻重拍的節(jié)奏里唱著"Don't tempt me/'Cuz I'm close to the edge/I'm trying not to lose my head,",巧妙地融合了原始的歌詞,這首歌在保留原味的同時也向過往的嘻哈先鋒表達敬意。
Although he was born in St. Louis, Aliaune Thiam — aka Akon — grew up in Senegal before he and his family (including his father, jazz percussionist Mor Thiam) returned to the United States and settled in New Jersey when he was seven. There 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. The album was an interesting hybrid of Akon's raps and silky, West African-styled vocals with East Coast- and Southern-styled beats. The success of the song "Locked Up" raised Akon's profile, and he followed up in the fall of 2006 with Konvicted. Soon enough, two of the album's singles, "I Wanna Love You" and "Smack That," had made their way to the upper regions of the Billboard charts.
