Akon announces his first single in a decade entitled “Akon’s Beautiful Day,” due out on October 4, 2024 via Konvict Kulture Records.
Known for his uplifting music and impactful global initiatives, “Akon’s Beautiful Day” represents the Akon we all know. This powerful track speaks to resilience, hope, the light and sunshine in life’s darkness.
The song’s message resonates with Akon’s broader mission to inspire millions through his work in Africa, where he continues to champion access to energy and digital transformation.
“Akon’s Beautiful Day” features an interpolation of the viral hook sung by 10-year-old Jamaican student Jermaine Edwards, whose heartwarming performance at school captivated audiences around the globe as well as Akon. This record beautifully wraps his smooth vocals around this melody, transforming it into a stadium-style anthem with the support of a choir of children’s voices, echoing the message that no matter what you are going through, you can always find light and beauty in life.
Collaborating with Jkash, JR Rotem, and Phillip Phever, Akon has crafted a song that reminds us music has the power to heal and unite. The track blends Akon’s unique sound with a powerful acoustic guitar arrangement, building to a feel good beat and chorus that invites the world to sing along.
The release of the new single coincides with the 20th anniversary of Akon’s debut album, “Trouble,” which first launched him into global superstardom with hits like “Locked Up.”
