    41:50 - The part about why Akon's presence was held back during Gaga's initial push: he references Pink's struggle in being labeled "urban" and doing lower numbers than she should have simply through association. That acknowledgement reinforces his business savvy and an earlier comment he made about how he develops artists to be "free;" that is an approach I can respect, since it shows care for the art AND the money.

    Akon is one of the most featured artists in world music in the last 15 years - he has done collaborations in R&B, hip-hop, house, Latin music, Afropop, and the list goes on. In working with so many artists around the globe, Akon has adopted the naughty habit of either exaggerating the extent of his collaborations with the artists or making announcements about them signing with him before the ink is dry, and that’s how the legend of the phantom Konvict record deal was born.

    Big up to Akon, doing a great job in Africa. Just a few points of correction though. Spanish is not spoken throughout Africa, only Equatorial Guinea speaks Spanish. I doubt if Spain actually colonised a single African country. He probably meant to say Portuguese. Congo is a central African country not west.
    Love and respect to Akon and all the brothers and sisters investing in their own.
