World cup 2010 anthem

Rumour has it here that American R&B singer/songwriter/producer Akon has been hired to produce the 2010 World Cup theme song.Why Akon?The same source says "A quick look at Akon’s Wikipedia page reveals that he’s of Senegalese origin and his real full name is Aliaune Damala Bouga Time Puru Nacka Lu Lu Lu Badara Akon Thiam"
While that may very well explain why Akon has been selected for the task it still is a bit much to expect anyone to read that name in a "quick look"
