Akon Thiam, Studio Executive,record producer,singer/songwriter, is one of the founders of Konvict Muzik and Konlive. Recently, he has been scouting the globe for talent, signing acts such as Sway, a British rapper, as officially revealed recently. Above all, the most fascinating fact is that although Mr. Thiam is already established in the US, he has a profound interest in African talent, as rumors of the signing of and interest in various African acts have spread all over the African continent.
So if you are an artist and you want to make it one day, just work hard and advertise yourself on sites such as Africanhiphop.com and developers like Mr. Thiam might just come knocking on your door.
If you're doubting the possibility, take the story of one of Africa's Daughters (Name withheld) , who recently signed a lucrative contract with one of America's most loved music groups (ID withheld), just by passing on a demo CD to one of the label's founders at a gig organized by the label here in Africa.
