Akon on Defending Tekashi, T-Pain Never Leaving the Hood, Not Signing Drake, Eminem (Full Interview)

AKON, always looking clean and humble. He likes expensive, but he keeps it on a scale that always looks professional and on point. He's got words of wisdom no doubt.

[@treygreene2546]

[@ricardocasimir8097]

Yeah kon is a real one! I’ve been of fan of his since he first came out

[@bdubz_det]

The T pain thing is so bizarre because he clearly crossed over to top 40 with literally every single hit record he had..

[@robertbellardine6298]

What he did in Africa is one of the most respectable things I’ve seen. Hats off to a real boss 🙏!!

[@EuricoThrasher]

Im from Angola and i assure Half of África is controlled by chinese corps, cheap labor etc ,Akon has nothing to do with this.... its the old communist vs U.S. war of influence

[@robertbellardine6298]

Wow I had no idea. The news here tells us he gave electricity to half of Africa. Just more fake news I guess

[@EuricoThrasher]

@Brandon Nihher boi johnson you dont even know if im white or not and im the idiot, assuming things is usually the first thing idiots do ... you are partially right ,but you dont know how things work here,its really easy to say akon sold out , but try understanding the concept of having to choose the lesser of two evils, you dont get anything done here without somebody takin something, and im from Angola ,you probably have no idea where tf it is , to clarify to you we are also “owned” by China most of our infraesctructure was and is being built by them, we choose them as allies , we are literally getting ouserlves in massive debt and they of course take advantage of that , Thats why they are doing in the first place !! You dont get shit done here freely , so when you say akon sold Out and thinking he is a massive fraudster or shit like that you are being ingenous, Thats the only way those people would be able to see electricity in Their life

[@robertbellardine6298]

Akon is still a boss then. I don’t see any other celebrities trying to make a difference with their money. All I see on Instagram is who has what and who can make the most money, but most people don’t give a f**k about helping other countries. They would rather waste their money on diamonds that someone died for. It’s a joke and now there’s a whole generation of people with the same ideology. It’s 2021 there should be no person in this world without electricity or water. It makes me sick to my stomach to watch and do nothing we have all this technology to help change the world but instead what’re we doing? Fu****g tiktok dance moves. I’m done.

You can most definitely HEAR the difference in Vlad’s voice, when he’s doing an interview that he actually wants to do/is excited for/has a like for the person he’s interviewing/is mostly talking about positive things, lessons, etc. Versus when he does interviews that mostly recollect darker things, beefs, or other things that aren’t necessarily super positive or powerful. He lit up nearly every time he replied to Akon throughout the duration of this

What Akon is doing with Akoin is exactly what Ghaddafi tried to do with Africa as a whole. Create a central African currency so we can be independent of other nations. And that's why they killed him, not because he was a ruthless dictator, they didn't care nothing about that.

[@darkerdaemon7794]

@@setaBC I wouldn't say that, everyone is entitled to have their own opinions, I just find it a little irksome when these opinions are all formulated upon emotional feedback and not rooted in real history... There does seem to be a trend where if you're black you have to have a negative disposition toward slavery, though.. I mean, I get it, but slavery was never focused on one race. There is no mutual inclusiveness / exclusivity when it comes to slavery, as, thinking that that is a case is just a highlighter upon ones bias.
