When I first heard "Locked Up", I have been impressed by Akon. The voice, the lyrics and the flow ... incredible. When I heard the rest of the album, I was really surprised: Akon can keep the level of the whole plate over! Respect! It's hard to find a weak point! Each track suit beats, which are, incidentally, consistently excellent, and Akon's flow along like the ying yang system. Anspieltips are: Actually the whole album, special highlights are but the track "Ghetto", "Easy Road", the title track "Trouble" and "Do not let up" (which somehow reminiscent of a Kanye West-beat, because he, similar to Kanye's "Through the Wire," a distorted voice Samplet Girls, but which exactly fits into the atmosphere of the track!) Finally, the album has its 5 stars more than deserved! Akon is the newcomer for me! Everyone should keep an eye on him once! For many he now's a tip! Akon, do your thang, man!
