Kontrived: The Akon Files

April 18th, 2008

Akon you ought to be ashamed of yourself!! The Smoking Gun and their relentless pursuit in revealing true facts have done it again. It appears that Akonhas been embellishing his criminal past, and might be, to SOME, considered a FRAUD (Delete’s “Locked Up” from computer).

In an extensive feature, TSG not only addresses the crooners numerous fraudulent claims, but exposes what REALLY happened during the specific time periods he claimed to be incarcerated. According to the piece, Akon was never on the verge of facing a 75-year prison term, as reported, and he was never locked up between the years of 1999 and 2002, in which his smash hit “Locked Up” was supposedly written!

Apparently, TSG became curious about the singer’s troubled past when Akon decided to hurl a 15-year old boy off the stage at one of his shows last June.

“TSG began examining Akon’s criminal record after he was arraigned last December on criminal charges stemming from an incident during a June 2007 concert at Dutchess Stadium in Fishkill, N.Y.. During that show, Akon, whose given name is Aliaune Thiam, lifted a 15-year-old boy over his head and tossed the child into the crowd. As seen on a popular video uploaded to Youtube, Akon dispatched a security guard to bring the young fan, Anthony Smith, on stage after a pretzel had been thrown at him from the audience (fellow concertgoers apparently fingered the teenager as the culprit). “He made a big mistake today, boy,” Akon announced before flinging Smith several rows into the crowd.

With the incident on tape, the singer was charged with harassment and endangering the welfare of a child. Following a December 3 court appearance, Akon was released without bail after a computer check turned up no outstanding warrants or, for that matter, any prior criminal history. This seemed peculiar considering the singer’s frequent mentions of his prison time and assorted arrests.

A second check was performed, with investigators submitting Akon’s fingerprints to the FBI for a more thorough search for warrants and priors. This time, bureau records turned up six arrests for Akon, who previously used several aliases and birthdates when being processed by law enforcement agencies in New Jersey and Georgia. In light of the discovery of the previous arrest history, prosecutors asked a town judge to set Akon’s bail at a nominal $5000, a request the jurist denied.”

Sorry to say, but you sir have been exposed. And seeing how TSG exposed L.A. Times writer, Chuck Phillips, I’m placing every penny I possess on them. TSG 2, Akon 0!!!

Alright, the groundwork is laid. Make LowKey proud and SoundOff, I know you guys have A LOT to say about this!

We as african americans need to seriously get a life who cares when I saw the video It didn’t seem real anywayz so whats yall point we need to stop tearing down one another and lift each other up. Look at the Indians and china men they are united thats why they own everything and a few of us are trying to own something before we are bought out. Take it from them stop being jealous of one another and stabing each other in the back if we were united no one could stop us.
