In this flashback, Akon spoke about growing up in Senegal with his father’s five wives, one being his mother, which was normal for him. Akon then revealed that his father has 19 kids, and he went on to speak about his father being an artist and professor. Akon explained that family isn’t as valued in America like it is in Africa, where Akon says that everyone in the large family contributes to household expenses. When Vlad asked about the wives ganging up on his father, Akon explained that it’s all about protecting their environment.
