Managing Kanye West and dating Future's ex-girlfriend

In October 2020, a story made headlines. It was stated that Abou was dating Lori Harvey. Lori is a model and social media influencer. 

Lori was having an affair with Future before this. 

His brother Akon left the audience speechless. Why?

Akon is recognized as the first solo artist to continuously hold the number one and number two on the Billboard Hot 100. 

He said one would not expect the same person to have come out of prison. 

Akon explains the main reason was having more drive and continuously recording, just constantly working to the plan to one-day work with the legend Michael Jackson and be the biggest. 

Akon revealed that even though he didn’t know Michael Jackson but wanted to work with him. He claimed it to be at the top of his goal. 

He even told himself he could shoot for the sky, at least. Akon always sets his goals high. 

Later, he revealed that his big break was indeed getting locked up, believe it or not, Akon added. 

Well, for Akon, his major concept was always thinking big. The artist mentioned that before getting locked up in prison, his target was to be rich by any means necessary. 

The host then added up that’s why Akon robbed the bank. Akon laughed and replied that the scariest part was that thought had crossed his mind numerous times before, and ultimately he was like, how does he do it and get away with it. 

Akon confronted that thought that had led him to make many bad decisions. He believes that one should get to find their advantage, which he refers to as the key. 

Elaborating, he continued by saying that we all human beings belong to different places and backgrounds, which means we all have different ways of how we want to get to where we are going, Akon added. 

The artist continued and said that the foremost thing one should do is to know where you are actually going in all processes. 

So, you also compulsory need to know how to get there. He says he tends to say what he likes to do and what his dream is. 

However, everybody has their own dream to fulfill. 

And no doubt, there are always several ways to get there; one thing you always have to do is pay attention to your surroundings and find the best possible way to get there, Akon shared.
