I didn't even understand why he had to be featured on the song to begin with... Just Dance, as much as I love it, is a bit of a mess because Akon provides background vocals so it'd be fitting to have HIM deliver the rap verse, but instead Interscope picked some random dude that hasn't had a hit song since.

Akon put Colby on it cuz he was pushing them both at the time 

Akon knew having him on the song would push Gaga but he contractually couldnt be featured or something like that so he has uncredited backing vocals 

“AKON: I featured on the song originally, but Universal didn’t clear my vocals. [Several contacts at Universal and Interscope did not respond to EW’s request for comment.] It was a crazy moment…so I got Colby O’Donis to feature on it and do my verse. But, I kept my background vocals on the song, because background vocals aren’t considered a “feature.” There was a lot of politics going on, a huge competition between Interscope and [parent company] Universal, and I like to think that because I claimed my record deal at Interscope instead of [directly with] Universal, where I was actually signed as an artist, they were kind of getting me back for that. It was so political that I didn’t want to fight it. The song was done, finished, ready to go all the way until two days before we shot the video, and that’s when we got the notice that we couldn’t get clearance. It was a huge shock to Gaga [because] this was her first megaproject and her first real moment! [O’Donis did not respond to requests for comment.]”

please enlighten me to death
