Don't Get Called Out by The Smoking Gun

The Smoking Gun recently released a pretty lengthy expose on Akon, pictured here with 14 year-old girl. Basically, the article lists numerous claims/ boasts Akon has made in interviews and then presents facts that disprove those claims. The most damaging evidence is probably that despite basing pretty much his entire persona around his years spent in the pen in Georgia, Akon has only one felony on his record (he was convicted in Jersey and got probation) and his longest jail term was about 3 months locked up in DeKalb County Georgia before prosecutors dropped all charges. I highly recommend reading the entire article, and definitely watching the video they've spliced together of Akon repeating his blatant lies. We've never really been a fan of Akon, so we'll be the first to admit we're hating pretty hard here. [via Nah Right]
