  • Shannon Sharpe sits down with Akon to discuss the inside and out of the music business. Akon describes his Artist development process and how he signed Grammy Award winning artists Lady Gaga and T-Pain: “I was just a platform for T-Pain to get him where he needed to be…Gaga was already on Interscope when I signed my label deal there and I said: ‘Jimmy, I need her for my label.’ It’s the greatest gift he’s ever given me.”

    Akon didn't just let Gaga out her contact without getting the bag. He helped make her into an Artist. She was a songwriter at first label. Lady Gaga outgrew Akon so he let her out the contract but the new label paid him well.

    A lot of these labels try to hold on to their artists because they only view them as cash cows. Whether they’re happy, or not, and have grown as artists. So it’s refreshing to to hear Akon’s take on the issue.

    Akon has a great network and connections. Even more impressive is he knows he has a limit to where he can manage and maintain up and coming artists so he has someone else take these artists to the next level. That is tough to do because he could have easily make them stay, but staying with him TPain and Lady Gaga wouldn't be able to get more exposure and to where they are now.
