Damn that's awesome! I used to be so anxious for this album to come out in like 2012-13, but then I got over it since I felt like it will never come out. Awesome to hear that 5 will come out.

The cover looks cheap. Euro - World - Pop could be one album (?) i mean the genres are all about the same.

5 albums?! Ambitious of him, but do people really care about Akon anymore?

What an overindulgent mess. So these 5 albums will all have different songs on them? Not just different versions of the same songs? Who is going to be buying $50 (or more) worth of Akon music in one week? Say one of his songs actually catches, how are people supposed to know which album its on? This is going to work great for him I'm sure...

This is going to work great for him I'm sure... It's more of a thank you to his fans for staying with him through each delay. He had problems with his label which is the reason it wasn't coming out. Not sure if he is still apart of Republic anymore. It'd be smart to have a discount on each album, or do like a 5 CD compilation with an overall discount.

Songs Akon released since 2015:
Comentale with Ozuna
Till The Sun Rise Up with Bob Sinclar
Inolvidable with Farruko, Daddy Yankee, and Sean Paul
Heatwave with Robin Schulz
Konvict Kartel 1 and 2
Akon the GOAT for releasing lots of good music. You asking why Stadium was delayed heavily, it is because he is trying to make a very good album. (I know I said it before in 2018 PMAs discussion for best stan but it needs to be said again)

My family and I were HUGE Akon fans back in 2007-2011 and we were so excited for Stadium but it never dropped. Every time there was a teased release date we were all so excited, only for it to not be released. He has been a pretty busy man lately. Spends lots of his time doing charity in Africa.
