Akon is already raving about his megastar protégé, Lady Gaga’s, next album. Gaga, who is traveling with a mini recording studio.
On her international “Monster Ball” tour, has reportedly written the majority of her next LP while on tour.
“She records while she’s on the road. I’m flying out to Europe to work on some new records with her,” Akon told Vibe magazine.
“Gaga’s just like me. She has a tour bus with a studio in it. Some of the songs I’ve heard are going to be crazy.
She’s getting bigger and better.”The hip-hop artist also admitted that he finds it easy to work with the “Telephone” singer, because she is extremely focused.
“All I’m doing at the end of the day is listening to the tracks Gaga has written and approving then for her album.
She has producers that she works with outside of myself and they are coming up with some incredible records,” he said. “But the beauty of it is she knows exactly what she wants. So it just makes it easier for me.” Gaga recently posted a message on her official website claiming her forthcoming third album will be “the greatest of my career.”
The pop star recently spoke to 2DayFM, proclaiming: “It’s certainly my best work to date.”
The follow-up to Gaga’s albums The Fame and The Fame Monster is expected to be released at the end of this year, of which she has previously vowed to embrace “new ideas” on the record.
