Akon's Dizzee duet
Friday, 3 October 2008
Akon wants to duet with Dizzee Rascal.
The 'Lonely' singer says he is a massive fan of the British rapper and would love to work with him on a new project in order to popularise the 'Dance Wiv Me' star's sound in America.
Akon said: "Dizzee is dope. I really like him. I think that whole sound, if it ever breaks outside the UK, is going to be huge, it's so new and fresh. I want to be the one to bring it over to the US and one way would be to get Dizzee on my album."
Dizzee is not the only British star Akon is a fan of.
He recently signed rapper Sway to his own record label, Kon Live.
Under the terms of the deal, Sway is to release his new album, 'The Signature LP' through Kon Live, except in the UK where he will continue to release through his own Dcypha Productions outlet.
