What Happened to Colby O’Donis?

Colby O'Donis hit the music scene circa 2008 with his hit single, "What You Got," featuring Akon, as well as a feature spot on Akon's "Beautiful," which hit the Top 20 on Billboard's Hot 100 chart.

His debut album, Colby O, was released via Akon's Kon Live label in 2008. O'Donis wrote or co-wrote 14 of the 15 tracks, while Akon co-wrote 10 tracks. The album peaked at No. 14 on the Billboard 200 chart, but it nabbed the 14th spot on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.

However, O'Donis is perhaps best remembered for his collaboration with a young Lady Gaga on her breakout hit single, "Just Dance," which he was featured on.

The two often performed the song at clubs before it skyrocketed to success and went 11x Platinum in the U.S.
