Born, Aliaune Damala Bouga Time Puru Nacka Lu Lu Lu Badara Akon Thiam in Dakar, Senegal. A-Kon moved to New Jersey with his parents at the age of 7.

Akon used that time wisely and turned his focus on his musical ideas. Upon his release, Akon began writing and recording tracks in a home studio. The tapes found their way to SRC/Universal, which eventually led to release of his debut album Trouble in June of 2004. Trouble featured the hit single “Locked Up” which reached the Top 10 on the US charts, as well as the immensely popular radio hit “Ghetto” when it was remixed to include verses from legendary rappers Notorious B.I.G. and Tupac Shakur.
