The Day Akon has half the collaborations, Hooks, Classics features as Nate Dogg, Then well have a discussion!!! Aight!! Nate Dogg is a Legend!! Akon is a rookie!!

Akon's a decent artist, but he's no where in the league of hooks as Nate.  Nate has found his niche as that guy for hooks in rap songs.  Akon's never gonna take the crown, people are just using him now because he's not afraid to say "fuck" like most of these other gay R&B singers.  Notice how the ones who actually say raw, explicit shit (Nate, R Kelly, TQ, Butch Cassidy, Joe sometimes, and now Akon) get hired for hooks on already dirty rap songs.  It only makes sense.  Also, Akon has the added benefit of being a producer, so people will go to him for a snog, and he can jump on the hook just as easily.

real talk!

Akon is for the bitches.

I've been listening to Akon a lot the past few days. I'm starting to like this guy.

likewise. i agree with everyone that more time is needed to tell whether akon will stand the test of time. however, one thing akon has on nate, is that he can successfully release a solo album that actually sells copies. platinum copies at that. i have no doubt in my mind that konvited will go platinum as well. nate is the king of hooks, and always will be. but...when it comes to an all around artist, i think akon is slowly creeping up on nates spot. only time will tell.

ok first and foremost, akon sux dick. i cant beleive people are even comparing him to nate.
nate is my fav artist and always will be.
i think nate doesnt sell as much akon because nate isnt on a major label.
put him up on shady records or aftermath, and i bet he will sell more than that little whiny akon bitch
i still wonder why nate was never signed to either of those labels...  :-\

^Nate never made it big because he lacks good looks, charisma, producer-skills.

See what happens when you make threads like this? Your account disappears.

I dunno about good looks. No homo, but Akon looks like Starvin' Marvin. That ain't a good look.
