Is Akon the new Eastcoast Nate Dogg?
« on: May 18, 2006, 10:49:38 PM »
It seems like every time he is on a hook he just makes it a hot track.

I am bumping this "ride out" - TruLife and Akon from DJ_Green_Lantern_And_DJ_Kay_Slay-On_My_New_York_Shit

This shit is fire!

Well the fact he is from Senegal kind of dis-proves his east coast status .........

uh yea I know he isnt from the East coast but he fucks with a lot of NY rappers it seems

has a nice flow, different which is why it reminds me of nate's (not that they sound alike)

the difference between them is that Nate doesn't sound like nails on a chalkboard

yeah butch and nate are the only 2 who can make songs a succes with just a single hook, nobody touching them, and certainly not akon, his voice is irritating... :-X

The whole "ft. Akon" is quickly getting played out.  I'll listen to him, it just seems redundant hearing him on all these songs. Rap niggas are so desperate for hits that if somebody blows up, everybody and their fuckin dog has to quickly do a track with that person to try to milk it for all its worth.  The result is oversaturation and it becomes ordinary. 

As for your comparison, he has been the go to guy for hooks lately.  But he's not touching Nate.

I hope not, because Akon has the most annoying voice I've ever heard.  Jeezy's "Soul Survivor" would have been an excellent song if not for that muh'fucka.  How this cat blew up is still beyond me.

Nate, on the other hand, has been falling off for years.
