Konvicted

If R&B has been drifting lately, Konvicted proves Akon's ready to take the wheel: His reedy voice encapsulates Jersey, Jamaica, and continents beyond (Africa, most notably); his wait-a-beat delivery enhances his high-flying hooks; and his attitude mulches thuggery and womanizing into something worth spreading around. If that's not indication enough he's on a roll, consider the accolades Konvicted is racking up--a Grammy nod for "Smack That" (featuring Eminem), a No. 1 single with "I Wanna Love You" (featuring Snoop Dogg), sales in the millions. To count Akon a musical groundbreaker, though, you have to be ready to embrace a new genre that might take Brian McKnight and Usher fans a little getting used to: hardcore R&B. Both "I Wanna Love You" and "Smack That" don't shy away from raunch, and tracks like "Tired of Runnin'" and "Shake Down" bring on an MC edge that belongs more to the street than to the bedroom. Still, count on Akon to convince holdouts he's worth hearing; both his message and his manner bear the marks of the unstoppable. --Tammy La Gorce

Let me preface this by saying that I do not believe Michael Jackson is guilty of child molestation. I have written in support of his innocence on this site several times over the past few years. I think Michael Jackson is a good person who has been tragically altered over the years by fame and having enough money to remove any semblance of boundaries or personal responsibility. _________________________________ Michael Jackson is arguably one of the greatest entertainers that has ever graced • From Friend To Friend
?Ain?t Nothing Like The Love Shared Between 2 Friends? It was funny how we met, but then again, maybe not. Am used to talking to strangers. I just never saw things going the way they did between us. I peeped you ?jocking? my style, like you rightfully should, but I passed you by. I thought your body was iight but you wasn?t really attractive In all honesty, I spoke to you because you were conveniently positioned on my second time running into you, while I was exiting the subway terminal.

With his continued fuckery, am I the only one who privately (well, I guess not so private now) wouldn?t be mad if Earl got locked up for a little while? He?s second to A.Winehouse right now in celebrities to let their habit get the best of them, headed straight downhill with no brakes. At least he could go to jail and do what every other aggin does - become a religious zealot. Then he could easily follow thru with those previous thoughts of becoming a preacherman.
