Akon said further, “My first experience as a musician was with percussions. I’m a percussionist first as a musician. In Africa, the drum is very important and that is why drums are always very important in my songs.”

Talking about his India tour, the singing sensation said, “Yes, I have wanted to give all my fans in India a gift for a while now. They have been so great and so supportive of my music I thought I’d spend my birthday weekend here.”

He said further, “The fans are going to get to party and dance to some of the great older songs as well as get to listen to some of the upcoming tracks from my new album, Stadium, which should be out in August.”
