A log of people has been wondering what is Akon's real name? Akon is an American rapper and singer who became famous after releasing a song about his jail experience. Akon was sent to jail for breaking the law, he came out and released a song titled Locked up. Watch the Locked up music video below.


The song was 11 years ago and Akon made a lot of money from it. It's part of the reason he was able to change his life and become a millionaire. Akon's real name is Aliaume Damala Badara Akon Thiam. His name is really long, but he doesn’t go by his government name. He is known as Akon on stage and he loves his stage name more than his real name.

What country is Akon from? Akon is an American.

What is Akon's Networth? According to what's public, Akon's net worth is $80 million. However, we believe that he is worth way more than that.

Well, Akon's name is a sure mouthful and this is very long lol. Imagine one person has about 5 names so what exactly do people call him? Akon will always stick, maybe his mom calls him Aliaume lol. Funny stuff. These American rappers have some funny names but their state names usually take all the attention.

He is lucky that Rappers like nicknames or stage names. It would have been hard for him to become famous.
