Sunday with Akon: "I have a bowling alley in my basement"

Sunday morning? In recent years, I never know where I will wake up. The last Sundays also took place in Australia, Dubai, Abu Dhabi and London. Wherever I am, Sunday is often a day off. I spend most of my time under the duvet in a hotel room, watching Netflix and drinking peppermint tea.

And at home? Sleep, especially. And hanging out with the kids in Atlanta. There's always a schedule if they're around: movies, sports, bowling… I have an alley in my basement, that helps. Even then, I'm not in the kitchen. Sundays are for ordering junk food: wings, burgers, that sort of thing.

Do you work? Occasionally. The music I do on Sundays is more family-oriented… You don't want too much “shake-your-ass” on the Lord's Day. If not, maybe I'll play a birthday or a barmitzvah.

What's playing? Sunday is calm – peace makes me feel good. Silence is the soundtrack to a day off in the music industry.

A religious day? Every day is spiritual; I am not a religious person. Religious knowledge is transmitted according to who knows what; that's not always accurate.

Sundays are growing? They were for the family. Mom cooked huge meals and picnics in the garden - the community gathered. Most of the time, I was playing hide and seek – or fighting – with my cousins. Sometimes we would go fishing for catfish in the lake behind the garden.

Do you train? It depends on how I feel. I only exercise when I feel the need. I don't have a workout schedule: my body tells me when to hit the gym.

A perfect Sunday in Atlanta? A few rounds at the TopGolf driving range, then at the Avalon center for soul food and shopping.
