Trouble is the debut studio album by Senegalese-American singer-songwriter Akon, released on June 29, 2004. The album contains Akon's worldwide hit single, "Lonely", which was his commercial breakthrough. However, the release of "Locked Up" propelled Akon to sign a record deal. "Gunshot (Fiesta Riddim)" was released as promotional single on May 11, 2004. The album achieved significant success in the United Kingdom, topping the UK Albums Chart. Trouble sold 25,000 copies in its first week and was later certified double platinum by the RIAA in the United States, with overall sales reaching 1.6 million copies.
