If ever in the future I have a chance to perform on stage with BoA again, it would be nice." Additionally, BoA expressed, "I was very happy to work together with world popstar Akon. And because I personally like the song "Beautiful", the recording was enjoyable. In the future, I will work hard to show my good side." The album is expected to release on August 5th, so Akon fans and BoA fans, unite and make sure to get a hold of that album! Akon's 3rd album "Freedom" from 2008.
