and songs where he is featured are eligible (he's done a lot of hooks).

Of course it always depends on the mood, but I'd say Keep You Much Longer LINK is towards the top at any given time.

I also like his hook on Dangerous LINK (Kardinal Offishall)

Also like Beautiful, No More You, Mr. Lonely, Sexy Bitch, Troublemaker, I'm So Paid, Clap Again, On Da Corner.

Not many songs of his I don't like. His breakout song with Snoop Dogg might be one.

What does everyone else like with him?

And yes, I know a good bit of people likely hate him. Please refrain from trashing him

What about Akon do you like? Dude is hot garbage. He just gets on everyone's song and autotunes ridiculous bullshite. I don't really blame him or T-Pain for mainstreaming autotune to the masses. But where does it stop? All of his shite sounds the same. I realize he has produced a bunch of stuff for a lot of big time artists. I think he was sent by Senegalese militants to autotune subliminal messages into the minds of top 40 radio listeners.

He doesn't autotune nearly as much as you make it sound. He has a very uniquely consistant voice.

I said it in the first post I am not interested in the negativity, so I won't get long-winded defending him, but he has a very naturally tuned voice and I think it fits a lot of different moods.

Don't disagree with that at all. Akon is just sooo forgettable.

I used to bang that song. I'm not that big of an Akon fan but I do like some of his shite, I guess it brings me back to high school.

This was actually his first song, not the one with Snoop. He tried to come out as a gangster before he got all catchy. My favorite song from him:

Locked Up

Everyone used to like this song too

I knew there'd be some punk like you in this thread.

The title is "Akon Fans:" Not "Anti-Akon Douchebags:"

i don't actually own any Akon, but for pop music on the radio, it's a hell of alot better than most the music out there.
