Hey if people in Tijuana want to listen to bad rap that is their business!

Check out Akon. His voice is extremely melodic. His style is transforming rap music at the moment.

I thought the article painted the REAL picture for the REAL people. And coming from Rick Steves, this little piece could give TJ a shot in the arm
