Akon Addresses His Prison Record

Akon chats about the discrepancies in his thug history and jail time:

In an interview with Access Atlanta, the singer clarified his previous statements that he was incarcerated for three years.

“I got caught up in cars and this and that. Kept going in and out of jail. Three months here, six months there, two weeks here,” Akon explained. “And it was to a point where I was like, ‘This really doesn’t make any sense. What am I doing?’ And the last stretch I did was six months in Dekalb County (Georgia) after I was pulled over in a stolen car.”

According to the multi-talented artist, his previous statements of doing a three year bid in prison represented the accumulation of all of his run-ins with the law, not one stretch.

“So I guess when I was being interviewed, and I would say, ‘Yeah I did about three years,’ I wasn’t saying I did a three year stretch, I was calculating the time from when I started to get in trouble to the time when I said, ‘Enough is enough.’ And I think that was mistranslated in the Smoking Gun article and other stories.”

Akon also dismissed the story of him being jailed for being a leader of a car theft ring, revealing his time in prison was always for receiving stolen goods.

“The majority of the time I was in jail was for theft by receiving. I was always receiving stolen cars,” Akon states. “I mean, honestly, if I was, they would have had enough to make it stick. They tried to convict me as (a) ringleader and they didn’t have enough evidence.”

Doesn’t this fool sound like a pretend gangster trying to validate his thug mentality? It’s a damn shame we have to say this, but f*ck a thug, gangster, robber, thief, goon, and all affiliates and variations thereof. Please include any other terminology we may have missed in the comments section. SMH

AKon is an ignorant Buffoon. I heard him bragging on the radio last week about how he has many “friends”. He recanted his story of having many wives. He said he lied and they are friends who know about one another.

I don’t promote promiscuity and I don’t like this dude at all.
