LiraThe 2009 MTV Africa Music Awards with Zain which took place at the Indoor Arena, Moi International Sports Centre, Nairobi, Kenya were dominated by Nigerian artists while Nameless from Kenyan scooped two awards: the Best Male award and the Listeners choice award. The show which was hosted by Wyclef Jean showed the other side of Akon when both of them stripped to their boxers and Akon sticking a microphone in his boxers! Whatever that was all about, Akon will tell us some day. Otherwise all we can do is to ask why Akon needs a microphone supplement?

By: Cindy Tshola When Mick Jagger sang about sex, drugs and rock and roll, nobody doubted his credibility. When Johnny Cash sang “Walk The Line,” people knew he’d had trouble walkin’ one. And when Emmylou Harris sang about heartbreak, audiences felt her ache. Authentic artists share a gift for communicating truth; truth mined from their own life experiences and expertly spun into three-minute, melodic vignettes (Source: http://www.myspace.com/joeyandrory). When Bebe Cool sang “Agenze”, a song about his marital troubles when Zuena left him, some artists whose names I hesitate to mention attacked him for putting his “private matters” in music.
