On August 9, 2025, a concert by rapper Akon will take place on the stage of the CSKA Arena

Alian Damala Badara Akon Thiam, better known as Akon, gained recognition in the music world in the early 2000s. His unique voice and original combination of hip-hop, R&B and African rhythms quickly found a response among listeners. He first introduced his full name to the general public on the Ellen Degeneres show in 2009, offering a thousand dollars to anyone who could repeat his name without hesitation the first time, but no one dared to accept the challenge.

Akon's music is distinguished by its cultural diversity, which has become his hallmark. His first album, Trouble (2004), included such hits as "Locked Up" and "Lonely", made him a worldwide star. The album reflects the artist's personal experiences and his time in prison. In addition, the songs touch on themes of childhood ("Ghetto") and the desire to escape problems ("Show Out"). Akon speaks English, French, and Wolof, the language of his native people, allowing him to delve deeper into African culture and music.

He has quickly become not only a successful artist, but also a talented producer and businessman. Akon founded two music labels, Konvict Muzik and KonLive Distribution, which brought artists such as Lady Gaga and T-Pain to the world. His ability to anticipate trends and discover new talent makes him one of the most influential figures in modern music.

Akon was one of the first artists to actively use a vocoder to create a futuristic sound. His songs often focus on struggle, hope, and love, making them relatable to many listeners around the world. In recent years, he has been experimenting with electronic dance music (EDM), adding synthesizers and electronic beats. In his lyrics, he raises issues of poverty, inequality, and the importance of education. His collaborations include work with such stars as Eminem, Gwen Stefani and Michael Jackson.

In addition to his music career, Akon is actively involved in charity and business. He initiated the project "Akon Lighting Africa", aimed at providing electricity to African countries through solar technology. This project began in 2014 and is an inspiring example of how to change the world for the better. He also launched a streetwear line "Konvict Clothing", offering quality clothing for men, women and children under the brand "Aliaune".

In 2015, Akon introduced his energy drink "Konvict Kola", which is distinguished by a sweet taste with fruity notes without the use of preservatives or artificial additives. In 2018, he opened a diamond mine near Antwerp to extract precious stones from Sierra Leone and Liberia. In addition, his $6 billion innovation city, Akon City, is being built in Senegal.
