Akon is set to take over the airwaves in London - he's landed a job presenting a weekly radio show in the British capital.

The Smack That hitmaker has signed up to host a two-hour programme every Saturday night on London's Capital FM.

The station's group programme director, Paul Jackson, says in a statement, "We are delighted to welcome one of the world's greatest R+B artists to 95.8 Capital FM. Akon has worked with legendary performers such as Lady Gaga, Whitney Houston and Eminem and his brand-new show on Capital will be awesome."

Akon's radio show kicks off on 13 February (10).
