Konvict Muzik is a record label founded by Melvin Brown[1] and R&B singer Akon. Other than Akon, there are popular artists such as T-Pain, Kardinal Offishall, Colby O'Donis, Rock City, and Brick & Lace signed to the label. At the beginning of most Konvict Muzik artists' songs there is the sound of the clank of a jail cell, followed by Akon uttering "Konvict". Akon started his own label after the success of his debut album. T-Pain released two albums under the label, achieving gold status on both.
