Soul - Vibing AKON

Been listening to AKON.
He does soul like I just want it. And with the contemporary fusion of a substantial dose of hip-hop from a guy who initially detested the genre.
The delivery on "Ghetto" is simply splendid. The rootiness in the swinging vocals and the lyrics is just perfect. Atimes there is so much of it that I think the song is a rehash of some ol' tune a la Wyclef style.
Yet to lay my hands on the CD though. Just snippets here and there for now. So once it hits this shores, my collection swells.
