It's here, little monsters. On Friday morning (February 11), Lady Gaga debuted her highly anticipated new single, "Born This Way," a funky, fun dance tune about loving yourself for who you are. Akon, who signed Gaga to his Kon Live Distribution label in 2008, opened up about the pop star's latest dance opus, admitting that he thinks it will finally show off Gaga's full capacities as a musician and songwriter, and not just a pop ingenue.
"I think 'Born This Way' is the kind of record that if you are really paying attention you will get the full depth of Gaga as a songwriter. Sometimes the creative image hides the element of her lyrical content," he told PopEater.com. "That's why she wanted to give people a better idea of what she was saying outside of her image when she dropped those lyrics."
The track has a clear message: Everyone should be treated equally no matter who they are or what they believe in. "Gaga says a lot of stuff in her records," Akon added. "But I know these parents and critics are not really listening to her lyrics. I know that for a fact. She's singing about a lot of adult subject matter. She's not just making dance records. Unfortunately, people pay more attention to what she is wearing."
The song is the lead single off the album of the same name, which will drop in May. Akon revealed that there are a few more touches that need to be added before they reach their deadline. "We are finishing up the album now," he said. "She's about to go back on tour later this year. There's a lot going on."
