Akon Defends Kanye West After Hitler Comments

Akon remains to be backing Kanye West, even after the man proclaimed his love for Hitler and Nazis — going as far as to say, he is not offended … ‘trigger the remarks aren’t aimed toward him.

The singer sat for an interview with Sky News this week … throughout which he mentioned he helps Ye’s proper to talk his thoughts and say no matter he desires to say, no matter how a lot it would piss off society — which is seemingly how he is framed this saga in his thoughts.

While Akon says he would be certain that to provide KW his personal POV towards Ye’s argument about liking Hitler — in a debate, it appears — he nonetheless would not like the thought of shutting the dude down and smothering out his speech simply because what he is saying is objectionable to some.

That final half is extremely telling, and one thing the journo caught onto — asking Akon if it troubles him that Kanye makes objectively horrid feedback, interval … with Akon responding, “Not really, because those comments don’t really affect me personally.”

In different phrases … not my group, not my combat. That actually appears to be the vibe Akon is projecting right here — and, as you possibly can think about, he is getting torn to shreds on Twitter over it.
