Akon Writes Leona Lewis a Song

Leona Lewis

Akon is busy helping another singer represent! This time it is the X-Factor winner, Leona Lewis. She is making waves in the U.S. already and has made quite an impact on the UK crowd. X-Factor is a Simon Cowell production where talented singers vie for their chance to win the coveted title of best of the lot. She can sing! Her voice range is incredible and she actually sounds like Whitney Houston. Akon and Leona have recorded a new track, written and produced by Akon, titled Forgive Me, to help build her appeal for the American market. The X-Factor has spawned variations in different countries. Tunisia, Somalia, and Egypt are part of Arabia's spinoff, Xseer Al Najah, and Morocco has Le Factuer X. Leona Lewis performs Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You". Guess Akon has a great eye for talent...and Simon Cowell actually knows what he is talking about!!
