Akon says he’s not turning his back on Kanye West even though the rapper praised Adolf Hitler in public last week.
“I show support for opinion and I think people will always have a specific opinion and I think the moment we get to the place where we close our minds up to other people’s opinion, it kind of doesn’t allow us to get to better know each other better know our mindsets and more than anything better know our movements. I think sometimes we should open up our minds and let things play all the way out and better understand the situation so we have a better solution for it.”
Akon says Ye’s marks didn’t bother him ” because those comments don’t really affect me personally…and if it does affect you personally then find a way to actually respond in a way to where that conversation can be reciprocated.”
“Because I think sometimes when someone is offended they just lash out in defense or lash out to make that person feel that same offense that they felt,” he continued. “I think when you take negative and you applied the response negatively back, you only get negative back.”
Is he right to be unbothered?
