Akon: 'I'll never regret my wildly sexual 00s lyrics'

Mr Lonely is officially back!

Speaking to Metro about his new song, aptly titled Akon’s Beautiful Day, the music icon revealed that he noticed that the vibes in the world have been ‘so low’ recently, so he tasked himself with improving the mood. Ahead of an album launch in February, which we cannot wait for, the superstar shed light on how music has changed since he first burst onto the scene, and how this inspired him to get back into the studio to fix issues.
