“I know this sounds unbelievable, but did you know that in my whole career as Akon, I only won just one award in the United States? Yes, I only won the ‘People’s Choice Award’. And I was cool with that because it showed me that I was really the people’s choice. It showed me too that I was relevant.
On the other hand, winning just one award in the US showed me that award shows are more about politics than an artiste’s talent.” — AKON
