    This is exactly whats wrong with this generation and society today. This man sat down and for over an hour spoke about large impactful issues. Love, cultural balances, mental health, physical health, self-love/help. True and deep down emotional things. He spent 5 mins on jada and thats the only thing ppl are talking about. Fuck the positive things but let's focus on the gossip. Its crazy how that works.

      He knew what he was doing. He knew that would get people's attention. After all he has an album out so what better way to get traction. I never followed, never listened to Alstina's music but thanks to Jada I and millions of others know who he is so he knew what he was doing. Here he's playing victim. Please. Hope his album sales go well. Hate when men kiss n tell. It's distasteful. If he needed healing, he needed a therapist not a journalist.

      @@breadbutter4221 no disrespect, but I feel I should defend my boy. I'm not sure that was his intent. He didn't randomly plug her name into the discussion,the question was asked of him... Interviews with August are always minimal on specific discussion of another, but HONEST. He "respectfully" never name-dropped or exposed her even though people have asked questions about his love life and they were in a relationship and interacting in public. I think he described regression and emotional weight here to provide the lay of the land relative to reasoning and motive. Truthfully I believe he WAS a victim of that circumstance but I only hesitate to argue that perspective because I believe HE would probably say something like, "I'm a grown man. I made my own choices and I stand on them with no regret". His truth (and the telling of it) heals and will probably save/change the trajectory of lives. He wasn't malicious, insulting, or even specific. This was something that happened, that was not a secret to all parties involved or directly effected, and was real for him. I believe he spoke on it in the same manner he would if Jada was an unknown woman he had an "entanglement " with. More than all of that, the man has a fan base that supercedes some of the world's most beloved "mega-stars". I only KNOW my own heart, mind and intentions, but I have a great deal of faith that his was just breathing the same level of emotion and truth that it always has.

      So I have been watching his past interviews and videos, I didnt follow him as an artist because when he came out the industry was over saturated with his style, tempo, music and so on. So I just stayed with chris brown for the time. What I discovered with him in particular is he came off cocky, confident, and about self... He continued to talk about how he dosen't have a problem gettin a chick or having sex for that matter , I mean he is handsome. He refers to being a side dude that come through lay pipe and keep it moving. He's not the loving type and so on. Well well well have karma caught up with him. He could never be so sure. The one he least expect sad to say someone else's woman has shown him who he really is. The sad part is he gave his all to a woman that could not be his . Another is he will NEVER love another woman who is deserving of his complete love becaus he gave it all away. It will take maybe 6years for him to feel that. Let's be honest were talking about a broken man here, and we as women knows how this goes. The fact that he made up his mind about never being with someone else if he was to die tomorrow, means he won't move on. If he's really woke he would see that this is a soul tie and not LOVE🤦‍♀️. Won't have to hide love or even have an exposure interview. Most people that need fixing that have money goes to Iyanla Vanzant 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Knowing his mother never really showed him the type of love she should have so he never really know what love is so it had to happen the way it did for him. It was no mistake.

I actually had him pegged as an a**hole for messing with Jada. I read some of these ladies comments and I start cringing. But when I see sisters holding other sisters accountable for their messed up behaviors, I gotta say that there just might be hope for our people after all.....even if it's just a little bit at a time.

    They were both grown, willingly participants. However, by Jada's own admission, "the boy needed help" and "she was hurting". And her solution was to screw him? Shes not a doctor. Does anyone see a problem here? She wasnt apologetic. That is predatory behavior and she only tried to justify it on her show. That's where she went wrong. If it was a man who took advantage of a female, it wont go over this well.

      Heidi Caine I had heard they were in an open marriage but I tried not to assume. No, I hear ya and agree 100 %! I am sure Will has had his own escapades. They said that show had the most people tuned in...who knows why they would do these things on her podcast? I am certainly not trying to judge them, no one is perfect. I guess if anything I am trying to understand! That song is what hit me so hard! They make it sound like it is still going on...I guess that would be on a different show maybe something like divorce court. LOL But I hope not. I heard August say that he is from New Orleans and that he isn’t some simple street n***o from NO. If you know anything about New Orleans especially Mardi Gras then you know we are forgiving people.

Jada said years ago in a few interviews divorce was not an option for her will so there it is. He needs to move on and focus on his health and family and stop wishing and hoping for a relationship that wasn't meant to in the first place.

    This man is speaking from his higher self. This is a man who is really in tune with his higher consciousness (that we all have by the way) and that’s why so many people are touched by the truth that he is expressing in this interview. The way he speaks about love, forgiveness, being in touch with his feelings, and so much more shows that he understands the laws of this universe. Not many people have this level of higher consciousness and for him to be so young and so transformed, I’m literally in awe. You have to go within yourself and expose what no longer serves you to become physically, spiritually, mentally, and emotionally liberated but what a lot of people don’t know is that is not easy at all. Especially being in the public, to keep know how to cleanse and protect your energy...I am honestly speechless and proud of him. August you are brilliant, everything you are speaking about was and will continue to be divinely orchestrated. Your story is beautiful because it shows a literal rebirth. I pray for you and your spiritual journey. As long as you continue to look within, you will be just fine. You are truly an example for mankind. Keep shining.

    August is the definition of a man... It is amazing to see that even as he has completely evolved, his change and growth are clear but the consistency of his core (his spirit... his heart) remains. Telling his truth to liberate not denigrate has been apparent throughout the years no matter what the background noise consisted of. I don't know that I have ever admired a man other than my father with this level of intesity. His genuine nature along with the fight he possesses even when he may feel taken aback in some way is inspiring. His nature gives me peace. Thank you August.

      That the number 1 thing that stood out for me in this interview! He seems like he's on spiritual journey and when you get to know God and he shows you who you are you have to break down and die to your former self to become the person he created you to be. We can't skip the process and people that have been through that process are able to understand others more.
      We'll want certain people to be accountable for the things they did to you or the role they played in your life but that requires them digging into their past that made them the way they and not everyone is ready to unload that baggage. I pray that everyone will get to know our heavenly father and know that he already paid the ultimate sacrifice and wants us to lay our burdens down so he can begin our healing! 💜💜 this interview was Deep!!

With that I started looking up information about Mr. Alsina & I came across this interview. This young man is deep! He’s so real! He’s a conqueror! He really just bless my soul with this interview. He’s so pure to who he is. I really enjoyed listening to him and this brother can singggggggggg! God bless you Mr. Alsina. Keep being true to who you are & raise those beautiful girls! I love your song “Sincerely “!

      This interview he is waay too peaceful,at ease,and comfort to be LYING..i always believed him as well..you cant mask,fake nor "clout chase" that kind of pain and truth..Jada is the liar and phony one,sitting up at that RTT like she really healing and helping people when she just as screwed up(if not more)than anybody else...than August said he lost buisness,money etc because of their relationship..so that means they didnt care to defend him in private either,before everything came out...🥺🥺🥺which is so wrong since they claimed to love him so much...they sat up there laughed and joked at this man pain,than tried to paint him liar and clout chaser..good thing it back fired..😂🤷‍♀️
      Im SOOOOO happy he walking in his truth and living FREE..and im so glad he didnt let their "status" bully him or silence him either...GOD HAS BEEN GOOD TO THIS BEAUTIFUL MAN and SOUL..im sooo rooting for his success!!!🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿😇😇😇😇😘😘😘😘😘😘

      @@koya1220 you are so right. And well said... The good thing about this is people got to know August a little bit more....and Although Will and Jada didn't acknowledge August that much I believe August has gained more from that whole situation....meaning all the stuff that he lost, he got back 10x..👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

    This man’s soul is so beYOUtiful! His life has not been easy, but he feels blessed by the pain he has endured and is currently enduring. He is such an inspiration and I’m proud of this young BLACK man!

    The way the media twist things and made it seem as though this entire interview was about him and Jada is annoying. This man spoke about so much more then that I loved this interview because it allowed us to see August for who he truly is and what he has been through and seeing him overcome is the most beautiful thing #IstandwithAugust

      i truly agree! i searched this up because i haven’t really heard of august since one of his songs ( i love this shit or some shit) and i wanted to see what the hype was about. he spoke on soooo much more and here is my dumbass coming straight with negative perceptions of this man when that was just a TINY portion in the interview 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

    I think I totally fell in love with this dude. He is so empathetic, he’s Demi- sexual like me, I swear this dude my twin flame. I felt every word he spoke literally in my soul. Alot of ppl don’t understand this type of energy and finding a mate to match this type of energy is so hard.
