Although currently incarcerated, Suge Knight still finds a way to generate headlines from behind bars. The former Death Row Records CEO recently launched his Collect Call podcast and he used the program to make some serious accusations against Akon.
“I wasn’t going to bring it up,” Knight stated. “One of my homegirls, she was a hustler. She had a little sister, 13 years old. Her best friend was 12 years old. She’s in the car with him. You and Detail call her. And she said, ‘I got my little sister and her best friend with me.’ I said, ‘Well, then stop by for a second.’”
According to Knight, Akon told the woman she could leave her little sister and her friend in a hotel room with him and Grammy-winning record producer Detail. Multiple women have accused Detail of sexual assault beginning in 2018.
“Akon, you f###ed a little girl, 13,” Knight said. “Detail, you f###ed a little girl, 12 years old. Y’all basically raped them.”
Akon pushed back on Knight’s accusatory comments. The “Locked Up” hitmaker addressed those allegations by responding to a Collect Call clip on the X platform.
“The world knows a lie when they hear it,” Akon tweeted. “It’s unfortunate that this man is going out like this. It’s sad and seriously embarrassing. Regardless of our history, I’m still going to be praying for him.”
