R&B titan Akon has already heard Lady Gaga’s next album, and he’s excited!
Her follow-up to the megahit album of 2008, The Fame, will be called Born This Way and will be released on Akon’s Kon Live label.
Therefore he might just be a little biased, but he told Rolling Stone in the US that he’s very impressed.
He said, “What I can really tell you about it is the fact that I’m excited — and I'm hard to excite.”
But Born This Way has worked its magic on him already.
He continued, “If I was going to compare it to her previous work, I would definitely say it’s a notch up.”
“It’s like she’s slowly taking you on to this journey down this road. If she were to just drastically do it, she probably would have lost everybody from the first album, but once the sound was created and established, now we can use that as a tool to grab all the monsters and walk them down this graveyard. It’s crazy. It’s amazing.”
The album is scheduled for release next year.
