Release Notes:

Upfront Konvict/SRC/Universal Motown multi-platinum recording star and much
sought after producer and songwriter, Akon, makes history with his new single
“Smack That” featuring Eminem jumping 88 spots, from #95 to #7 on Billboard’s
Hot 100 chart this week.  “Smack That” is also one of the top 10 fastest growing
songs at Top 40 radio. The monstrous leap is fueled by the single’s #6 debut on
Billboard’s “Hot Digital Songs” chart with 67,000 downloads sold in its first
week.

“Smack That” is one of two lead singles from Akon’s forthcoming sophomore disc,
Konvicted, due out November 14, 2006.  The single has already been the #1 most
added song at rhythmic and crossover radio and has been listened to more than
three million times in one month on Akon’s MySpace page (www.myspace.com/akon).
Akon’s other lead single, “I Wanna Love You” features Snoop Dogg is seeing a
considerable amount of attention as well.

Akon scored unprecedented success, both here and abroad, with his multi-format
smash hit singles “Locked Up” and “Lonely” from his multi-platinum debut
release, Trouble.  He’s produced hit songs for hot rapper Young Jeezy and his
own top-selling R&B artist T- Pain.  He has recently worked in the studio with
Elton John and Gwen Stefani and will be debuting several breakout artists on his
newly developed label, Konlive.
