In the latest clip, Akon responded to grossing tens of millions during the latter half of the 2000s. On making the Forbes list multiple times, Akon said he never reported his earnings to the publication and preferred to stay under the $15 million range. When asked why he wanted to stay under that threshold, he replied that it's easier to manage when dealing with the government.
Akon also addressed working on Dr. Dre's Detox and being part of the single, "Kush."

Akon also gives his thoughts on Dr. Dre's Compton album and signing transgender entrepreneur, Jeffree Star.
