The controversy surrounding the number of kids Nick Cannon has with different women, and his ability to equally care for them has remained a hot topic in 2022.
Now, Akon has weighed in on the issue during an appearance on The Zeze Millz Show. He was asked to share his thoughts on Cannon’s multiplying children and the ongoing debate on his unconventional family style.
Cannon has had 11 children with multiple women since 2011 and recently announced he is expecting his 12th with Alyssa Scott. While many frown upon Nick’s way of living, Akon says he’s living life as it should.
“Do you agree with Nick Cannon and his spreading of his seed?” Millz asked.
“I agree with him 1,000 percent. That’s how life is supposed to be,” Akon replied. “Why not? He’s rich. He’s responsible. He takes care of every one of those children. And the baby mothers are with it. And they hurt for nothing. And they live comfortably.”
While it’s a fact the Wild-N-Out host is financially well off, many argue money isn’t enough when it comes to raising children. Even Millz raised the point.
“He’s there for every one of them,” he fired back. “He’s there for every single one of those kids. I got nine [kids], and I’m there for every one of mine.”
“So every single time, you’re at every single recital?” Millz questioned.
“No, that’s a white man’s thing. Who gives a fuck about a recital?” he asked. “No, seriously. Listen, my job is to raise my kids, to be responsible, to be understanding, to protect their mother, to give a hand with their father, and to assist with family planning, and to be responsible adults … Now, guess what? While I’m taking care of my responsibility to make sure the family has a roof over their head and food, if I have the time to do that and show love, yes, I will do that. But my responsibility is to make sure they grow up responsible and strong.”
After downplaying the importance of being there in the physical sense to “white dad” stuff, Akon said communication is important.
In fact, he believes it’s actually the mother’s job to be with the children, while fathers provide their comfort.
“You can’t expect a man to conquer the world, if he’s there with his children,” he continued.
If that wasn’t enough, when Millz asked Akon why he couldn’t have fewer children, which could have made it easier for them to travel around the world with him, Akon questioned back, “Who does that?”
“Why would you wanna take children all around the world with a man?” he asked. “That’s so womanistic. What man do you know is gonna run around with his children? You know how weak that looks? Who does that?”
