Video: Akon Responds To “I’m So Paid” Controversy

October 24th, 2008


So what it’s a recession, Akon is STILL PAID!
Ok, so here’s the deal….Akon released a song called, “I’m So Paid”, featuring Young Jeezy and Lil Wayne. As we all know, the U.S. economy isn’t on its strongest leg right now, so of course, materialistc glorification probably wouldn’t be the best topic to rap about. As a result, Akon has been receiveing a ALOT of flack and criticism for releasing the tune.

Since I was called in to for an interview with the Konvict, as a journalist, I wouldn’t be doing my job if I didn’t ask him about the track and the flack it’s received. So, without further ado, here’s Akon’s PERSONAL response to the sensitive topic….

I luv your music Akon. Keep doing your thang and get paid. You can only look out for yourself and not worry about what everybody else is saying or doing. But my thang is why do u gotta have wack ass lil wayne on your song. He is so overrated and non lyrical. I love your songs because it stimulate my mind and everytime lil wayne features on somebody else song, he just mess it up for me and makes it wack. But anyway I love you and stay beautiful.

Akon need not explain himself. he worked hard for his money, he has the right do as he please, even wipe his azz with C notes. haters always trying to bring everyone around them down, and feel miserable like them, all because of jealousy……. so sad



cil Said on

Akon, you don’t need to apologize about anything!! You’re just doing your work and it’s an amazing work. Keep getting paid, you deserve it! I can’t understand why people like to pick at Akon, it can only be jealousy. Keep on doing your thing, Akon. We love you.



melissa Said on

Let’s not forget that this is an entertainment business, so the man gota do wat he gota do to amuse peeps and make his money. he been pretty descent in his career, so plz allow the man to free himself and be who he is today. And i believe that music is the most powerful way to make peeps forget their problems and step back in life to jump better (hope).

AKON I ALWAYS RESPECT U,

So We, the black people in America have to open our doors a little bit because he’s already getting money from Africa Europe Asia but the man was raise in New Jersy. So USA is his home, we are not more American than he is, come on give the man a chance BET come on, help a brother out, we want to see more Akon.
