Bone Thugs n Harmony ft Akon _i tried so hard It's like am taking 5 steps forward and 10 steps back 😔😭life is really hard on me. Am happy for macg and sol because they are big inspiration to me,how their life turned around. Hoping and believing that mine too will change when I find a job. Big up guys for this interview, Akon is a good guy, I hope I can meet him one day.
This was beautiful 😊 Africans are moving strongly together in the ryt direction.
Mac no doubt has to be one of the best interviewers of all time 😂.
One thing about Mac,he'll pull up wearing crocs 😂😂
You can deny Akon is one of us.The energy and vibe😂🔥🔥🔥
As Africans this was one of those reminders that as much as we look towards Black Americans, we should be wise enough to know what to leave behind and not take seeing how it’s not working even for them. The slay queen, champagne poppin, stripper, equality between men and woman culture. Too many single parents in Southa hopefully kuzovukwa emaqandeni before it’s too late 🤟
Yooh Akon Explained Women so very well and spot on...
Yooh This platform is growing stronger by the Day
Lol Akon cutting Mac to answer his questions before he even finishes lol
I don’t know why I so resistant to watch this episode I almost missed a lot,Akon is a free spirit man may God help & strengthen what he has started 🙏🏾
We gotta admit, Macg and the podcast are big now. They're international 🏌♂️
You guys are what the next generation must study. Against all adversity, Mac , you soldiered on and gave us a place to congregate in twice a week. Your passion has taken you to places you didn’t think you’d be in such a short time, yes eventually you would have been, but in God speed it happened. Keep keeping on my brother, you are truly inspirational. I single you out because of what you endured and openly put others on. Sol would have made it, but you played a huge part in helping his renaissance and that’s a fact. Ghostie is your day 1 and a true believer. Stay blessed with the whole team. Hendaaa 🙌🏽
