Akon, the R&B singer best known for his songs "Smack That" and "I Wanna F*ck You," and for an unfortunate incident in which he simulated sex with a 15-year-old girl during a concert in Trinidad and Tobago in 2007, is coming to Iraq.

Erbil, the capital of semiautonomous Iraqi Kurdistan and a staging ground for the Kurd's fight against the Islamic State (IS), will host Akon's sexy antics and bubble-encased crowd-surfing at the Franso Hariri Stadium in March.

Akon has performed in several cities in the Middle East, including Cairo, Beirut, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Doha.
