Someone in Vibe tried to explain it but I didn't get it. Said his voice was Africa and we all could feel the soul in it.
I think that if vocalist has a distinctive sound and it is paired up with the right music... it will naturally blow up. Gwen Stefani, ODB, Fifty, Banks, Wezzy, Fall Out Boy... etc.
Remember James Blount our whatever his name is. Mr. "You're Beautiful?" I didn't think he could sing at all. but he had a unique voice an used it right.
Ohh, here's another one, T-PAIN. He's no Luther Vandross but his shit is all over the radio right now....

people like the dichotomy of someone who's been to jail (read "hard") and sings whilst expressing his softer side. sorry though...he's no nate dogg.

yeah....he gets on my nerves because he's all over the place. it's a good thing for him though. I dig his sound but it does get annoying after awhile. As does Nate Dog...luckily for us, Nate aint as hot as Akon right now.

james blunt* is a pimp though man..listen to what he sings about besides that your beatiful shit.
he didint pick that last name for anything....
as far as akon goes. its mainly that shit that is the "if he has the right music to sing on" type
such as pharrells non singing ass
or lil waynes voice.

1 word Fury........ NSYNC!
now keep quiet when grown folk is talkin.
Yeah Stress....I really don't think he's that bad on a few songs...mainly that "Soldier" shit by Papoose. Tell me that shit aint hot.
man i can smell the Hate in this thread......lol...
Though Akon doesn't have a soulful singing voice......he can write catchy ass hooks, and hold a note....That song he did with BoneThugs was dope, and the hook he sings for that "We takin Over" song wasn't bad either....he has had his fair share of wack shit like the 'Smack that" song, but even though I don't like it, you can't deny that its catchy. He's the hit maker at the moment, the guy you want singing your hook if you want your song to get a shitload of radio play.....but like many other "hook" writers he will go away after awhile...

I agree with you there, take pharell....he is another off key singing, hit maker.....every song with him gets play....but he can't sing for shit......I still like the music, it doesn't sound bad to me......but these guys are no Anthony Hamilton....that boy can Sang...

word...anthony hamilton is savage with the vocals.
now for the akon/lil wayne hate-on-athon
holding a note consists of pitch correct...a plugin available for all major digital audio workstations.
lil wayne's voice sounds like prince rapping during a colonoscopy.
although i do agree akon's voice is kind of catchy, catchiness only goes so far. i could think of other shit in history that was catchy that was not necessaruly the best thing.
