Akon continues 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 stated he helps Ye’s proper to talk his thoughts and say no matter he needs to say, no matter how a lot it would piss off society — which is outwardly how he is framed this saga in his thoughts.
“I’m a backer of the proper to consider what you wish to consider” says Akon, talking on Kanye West’s anti-Semitic feedback – including that if he spoke with Kanye he’d “give him my standpoint on why I disagree” as a result of ‘communication is vital’.https://t.co/PAiZ4D1jU3

While Akon says he would ensure to present KW his personal POV in opposition to 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 actually, as a result of these feedback do not actually have an effect on me personally.”

In different phrases … not my group, not my struggle. 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.
Now, Akon is defending himself. He wrote, “I clearly don’t agree with  Kanye’s remarksI about Hitler. I’m merely saying that everybody ought to have the proper to their very own opinion. Doesn’t imply we are going to at all times agree.” Sounds like Ye nonetheless has one one who’ll tolerate him.
