Akon Faces Backlash After He Supports Nick Cannon’s Decision to Have Multiple Children With Different Women
4 min readNick Cannon’s ever-growing family tree recently made Akon under fire after he expressed his thoughts on family life. According to the musician, “1000 percent” agrees with the idea that Cannon should have 12 children with different women: “That’s how life should be.”. What’s wrong with that? He’s rich…and he’s responsible. All of those children are taken care of by him, as well as the baby mothers. They live comfortably and they don’t hurt for anything. When Zeze Millz argued that men often assume children need only financial support from their fathers, Akon responded that this wasn’t the case with him and Nick Cannon.
He’s there for them all. All of those kids have him by their side. “I’m here for every one of my nine children,” said the record producer, who also noted that one cannot expect a man to “conquer the world” if he has children. According to him, men such as himself cannot spend a lot of time with their children because the mother is supposed to be the one who looks after them. Nick Cannon announced a week ago that he was expecting his 12th child with Abby De La Rosa, just one week after He announced he was expecting his 11th child with Alyssa Scott.
Akon defends Nick Cannon for having numerous kids with multiple women:

Yuck. When my son has any school event where parents are invited. The first thing he does (he’s 3) is scan the entire room until he sees us. And he says to himself “my mommy and daddy are here!” with the biggest smile. Akon’s a loser https://t.co/6BUYP7pez4
