--------
In this clip, Akon detailed how he got introduced to engaging in crime. Akon started off selling drugs but said the money wasn't worth the risk of prison time that was sure to follow. He then began stealing cars in and around Jersey City before taking his operation to Atlanta. While in Atlanta, Akon started making tons of money from stolen cars to the point that he opened a few chop shops and laundered the money through his three recording studios.
“We go test drive a car and never come back“ 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
** what were the requirements for taking a car on a test drive in the 80’s?
@Jdjdj smith- That sounds like insurance fraud. If a dealership actually reported 2 stolen cars, it would have had a police cruiser sitting in it’s parking lot for a week.
@@l00pdigga42 nothing u would just ask
Dot Hollo I test drove a truck at the Chevy dealership twice first time they got my license second time they didn’t even ask me for it
Adrian Arellano cause they already scanned it the first time
The next GTA should have Akon as the main character, 😂
🤣
Or maybe a king pin in a gone for 60 secs vibe
Yeah, and the crooked cop should be Vlad in Groove St. making money off of the urban community 😂!
Love Vlad's interviews though. as contradicting as!that sounds.
GTA SA was basically him. Coming from Liberty City to Los Santos to jack cars and get locked up.
Sick thoughts
" My car is stolen, no registration, cops patrollin now they dun stopped me and I get locked up"
ahhh... and here's the story behind that verse
djvlad even hit em with the “ahhh” in the comments😂😂
@@vladtv Oh SHIT 😳 GLAD responded to Someone......Thats dope! Aye VLAD, Youre alright with me bro, Jews and Us Blacks are SUPER POWERFUL when we're a TEAM 💪💪💪
I was going to write this but yes
Vlad finally got you akon....
Imagine someone watching this and thinking: "I got jacked by Akon!"
😂😂😂😂😂
Pause
@@FailedNoob this guy didn't read the comment over 😂😂😂😂
Atleast It’s probably all rich ass people that don’t get on UA-cam though
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 especially the one he took back to the crib
This guy is a genius. He really built a bunch of peoples careers for free then got the money as they became famous. Man is brilliant. Financed his future gave some kids their dream and came out a genuine hood hero. I love it.
The American dream for sure 💯
This need to be a movie fr a “hood” gone in 60 secs
No lie let's spam it till Akon sees it he got the money to do it
“New Jersey Drive”
Anthony Sandoval it’s on UA-cam aswell
It was made in 1993
In the hood in 60 seconds lol 😆
Akon had the mind of a mobster, not a gangsta. Evil, but brilliant.
Michael Rodriguez fr most mobsters were just like gangster today. but back den they used to follow orders from higher ups so they weren’t wilding out as much but they were still catching bodies. Two mafia beef had like over 200 deaths.
They the same thing. You just mean the mind of a non black gangster because you associate black with less.
@@studentoflife3501 I just meant that his scheme to make money illegally was more complex than your average street dude. He wasn't just out on the corner selling dope and risking getting killed or put in jail for chump change. He had an elaborate plan. It takes intelligence to do that.
Those the real ones with the street credentials never said a thing till many years past
He IS LYING brotha!. The narrative has to fit with his songs, but he comes from a wealthy, higher-middle class family.
That is a smart individual
It’s all fake. He was exposed and admitted that he’s made up “gangsta life” in previous interviews.
He “didn’t even know it was a crime at the time”. A regular Issac Newton. Truthfully this man is just another scumbag.
@@italiancapo7 Where. Cant find nothin ?
Afrikaaaa
@Andrew Bell wait till you hear about people in power...boy are in for a ride!
“ I actually had a friend who used to steal cars too “ - Vlad
😂😂😂.... You funny
Lmaooooo 😂😩
He would likely say "homie" instead
"I'm not gonna give you his name but he's well known"

I was on a flight with Akon from Dubai to NYC last year. We were the first 2 people off the plane and the only 2 in customs for a while so I talked to him and we took a picture. He was super cool, even after a 14 hour flight.
Akon and Young Jeezy tryin to take it EZ
Cause im a rider

Ayyyyy
IF YOU LOOKING FOR ME I’LL BE ON THE BLOCK WITH MY THANG COCKED

"I taught Akon how to flirt with DMV girls" - TK Kirkland
The song "Sweetest Girl" By Wyclef and Akon was about the heavy insecure DMV Girl 🤣🤣
😭😂😭😂😭😂
🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂 been there done that. I had one of those back in the day who worked for bestbuy where idk if it's like this now, but they were getting 50% off for their employee discount. I had all of the latest systems in my ride and for sale 😁😁😁. Ahh the good ol days.
D Raines I missed the part where someone asked

You drawnnnn😩😂😩😂😩😂😩😂😩😂😩😂😩😂😩😂😩😂😩😂😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 part two coming soon😭😭😭
Oh we at the door with it . 😏
Statute of limitations been over. He already served time on most of these, plus he been told these stores before now
Lmaooooooo no lies
This was the real reason Vlad wanted to this interview 😭
Nah the cryptocurrency shit and him building a his own city were probably the main reasons outside of his successful music career
🚔
His name is GLad
@@Dreaaddy **k*k
REAL SHIT LMAOOO
Sometimes crime pays.. how you think “they” got this old money
No gta pays
how do you think the Italians got rich.
It's kinda rude to be talking about "they". Especially on THIS channel.
Exactly how do you think the Jews in Nyc got rich?
Akon in the cut is a scary sight
If u a pussy...
Won't see shit but teeth and eyes lol
I can’t see em
Im crying hahahahahahahahaahahah
Akon is definitely the ultimate jack boy .get away every time 😂😂😂😂especially in Atlanta
SCENARIO:
You're you. Sitting in your whip, in a dark empty KFC parking lot, bumping "Mr. Lonely" by Akon because yo gurl just dumped you, when suddenly, you get car-jacked by Akon.
1 week later...
Your car is back in your driveway, receipts all over the floor, along with a stack of signed Akon CD's.
Those hits were released after he served time for car theft lol
Akon probably has millions buried somewhere.
Well he is a billionaire....
Yeah, it’s in his bank account, he can launder his own dirty money now. He made legit millions after becoming a musician.
Mike Gamebred he has a billion dollar credit with and electric company
MrSPIDEY21 electric company from China at that.
@@waxfifty400 as if it would have been any better if it was from the US
Remember guys... Akon learned all this from being in Jersey. They don’t call it Dirty Jersey for no reason. 😂
That’s a fact bro, they have a documentary on Vice about it. I believe it
Facts they just stole my rims yesterday smh
Johnny Calderon Sorry to hear that bro, gotta go to autozone and get a rim lock
@@LowKeyPorter I sure did after that
@@johnnycalderon9951 😂😂sorry bro, the correlation is crazy.
So Akon was stealing cars, cutting hair, and in the studio with Wyclef?
The male "Baby D"
THANK YOU DUDES IN JERSEY SAYS THIS IS ONE BIG LIE HE DIDNT HAVE NO MFING CAR RING HAHAHAHA
BRUMSEYBOYS he says the car ring was in ATL
Legendary nigga
polymath lol
"We'll go to dealerships, testdrive a car and never come back" 🤣🤣🤣
😆😆😆
“I’m the one who told Akon to come to Atlanta” -TK Kirkland
lol....why was I waiting to see a comment like this!!! hilarious!!!
🤣
🤣🤣🤣
😂😂
Your lier lol
The way I remember this story is.... He was 15 or 16 years old and him and his friend stole one car and got caught in Georgia. The judge initially gave him 5 years in jail but the judge didn't want to keep him locked up for 5 years away from his family in New Jersey so after one year he let him go free thinking that he would return to New Jersey and his family but he didn't want to go back. Akon stayed in Georgia with his friends family and started committing bigger crimes.... He was the youngest kid to be placed in an adult jail for Grand theft auto in Georgia, hence the nickname "convict" was bestowed by other inmates...
At that time while he was in jersey, most notably Newark, it was right before it became basically the car theft capital of The US. So 100% cars were getting jacked left and right. It reminds me of the movie New Jersey drive
"I didnt even know it was a crime at that time." This dude funny as hell cap ass
Nah he from Africa he prolly really ain’t know back then
That's bullshit . Playing the dumb foreigner role.
Shayne Douglass lmao nah I’ve seen a few African niggas legit trynna eat a crack rock no BS
Big. Cap😂😂😂
@Obinna Anyanwu He was straight from St Louis
Knowledge and understanding the situation and weighing the ups and downs is key to staying out of prison.
Akon just made me the next Akon with this video
🤣🤣🤣
6:25 🤣
Lmao I use to work for nvm...thanks Akon
Days are over can t steal like that knowmore
Plz dont get indicted
Akon has balls and is a genius that’s a formula for success if I’ve ever heard one
What is about Vlad that everyone feels the need to confess all their crimes, in detail too. looool. i didnt expect this much detail from Mr Akon.
because to a lot of black people put a white person in front of them they confess the truth. Deep down they literally worship white people.
Whoopi🤫👀👀
bonifidehustla what?? Chill the fuck out, these are crimes they all got caught with and they are so old and common crimes the police can't track them back to you. I have not seen one black person here confese or talk about a crime that they have not done time for or are known to the public, not once. Ive watched alot off these inteviews and not seen it but since you seem to know wtf you are talking about, then give me a example off such a confesson??
Nigga lying he said gps nigga ain’t no gps 20 years ago. Fake ass story. Also if the cops build a good case on you you could get 20 plus years. RICO law
@C. L. Park No but pointing guns at people and jacking their cars for a career is pretty bad, Long time ago but thats not a good past to have.
Having intelligence using it for bad intent is one thing. Having a heart behind it stops it! Glad to know you changed. 🙏🏽🙌🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Damn Vlad TV must be therapy for these celebs because they sit down and let it all out.
They love the attention
I swear
Law Enforcement is listening too!
Chill homie he been talked about his car theft ring. That's what inspired the song Locked up. He's just telling more of the story now.
Facts, i be telling niggas
So Akon was a criminal genius before the music. I don't know why people are hatin...half of all of these rich people started off doing illegal sh!t before they had a legitimate business. Hell, in Trump's case he's been doing illegal sh!t concurrently while having a legitimate business for decades lol
By he wasn't in the criminal life.
donald trump prime example..
King Ramesez vids amazing
Trap Lore Ross did a video about how Akon lied
@@jahsireadams7341 Thanx...I didn't know that so many people still liked 90s hip hop these days😊
I can never understand while they continue to tell this man about the work they put in.
Akon was Talking bout this in the Locked Up song he got.
My car is stolen
No registration
Akon has been rich for a while then. $700,000 per month is paid in full.
Facts. That’s a lot of money son. Plenty for me and the fam for real.
Yep Akon was no stranger to money
Tk Kirkland: I taught Akon how to build Wakanda
TK🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol
I grew up in the same city as Akon. I looked up to him as a teenager. I am now a high school teacher in New York City. I am appalled by the glamorization and normalization of these crimes. Imagine taking a vehicle away from a mother who has a child with an emergency. The real man is the man who works hard and wakes up everyday to provide for his family. We need to condemn this shit. Not cool.
No doubt. It's embarrassing the way people talk about it like it's nothing.
Bro you make it seem like he was stealing mini vans or some ish, that’s not the case, I’m sure he was stealing foreign or sports/exotic cars because those are the cars that make the most money, if it don’t make money it don’t make sense, but I understand what you mean you just brought the worst case scenario that probably hardly happened.
Ya what single mother goes to t fantasy place and pays 20 buck to park her 98 honda 😂
@@gskebkright lol people like that always bring up the worst case scenario when trying to make their life look better than someone that's bringing in 40 grand a week from stealing cars. Plus the average person with a nice vehicle has full coverage insurance which means they get a brand new car for just $500 down if their car is stolen. My step dad's 2022 Dodge ram just got stolen and he got an upgrade for just $500
Lmfaooo he made it look easy 😂 Flirt with the insecure heavier DMV girl, take her out to eat 🤣
😂
He made sure not to mention taking one for the team 🤣
Y'all acting like y'all never needed a favor.😂
“We’ll just go to the dealship , test drive a car and never come back” LMAO man wtf , how the hell they even get away with that shit in the first place
😂🤣😂🤣😂
I’ve never been this interested to a vlad interview my whole life
SAY MORE:
Just this part alone could've been an hour long.
It's nice to see a successful artist dropping jewels for the youth...
Imagine you get ran up on and get your car taken, then a couple years later you're watching MTV and that guy is singing Lonely. 🤣🤣
xDDDDDDDDD
No registration car stolen 😂
If yall think Akon lying, yall would definitely not believe Jeezy and Jay Z if they told their stories...
This is bullshit
@AlreadyWon but they are not tho, PLENTY ppl have vouched for Jay and I personally seen Jeezy in 2000/2001 as a kid in Atlanta in Rolls Royces during the BMF era. Clearly it wasn't rap money if he hadn't popped musically. Those guys lived their raps.
@@kadams857 Nah
@@hmosesmamulu6491 dude this story has proven to be a lie he manufactured this stop it
Henry Mamulu jeezy just a rapper and Akon a culture vulture
Akon life is interesting so far, this part right here was a movie
Exactly. This sounds too unreal to be true
The smoking gun investigated this and said Akon lied about this
What you talking about?
Pretty sure it would’ve been under the instructions of his lawyer.
Issa nigga watching this interview right now saying "Akon da nigga dat stole my shit from Houston's that night"???😂😂😂
So wyclef just out the blue told him to come to the studio
I was thinking the same thing 😂😂 like no demo or nothing.
Maybe a Jerzey thing they both from there other than that I don't know it is pretty random
@@High2GetBy I thought that too at first
He was writing and producing at that time too. He even had a cool little song out in the middle of the 90's
Akon is on one of the fugee albums or features UA-cam it, so I doubt he made that part up
I think Vlad is a hypnotist. People get on his couch and can't stop talking about crimes they've committed. It's like they can't stop themselves.
Akon is a true business man and hustla!
Is he the CEO of his label, Konvict Muzik?
@@d-staxworldwidestax7112 yes
I don't care what nobody says Vladimir is a Sorcerer in the way he makes people indict themselves. "Flirt With The Insecure Heavy Set Girls" 😁😆😂🤣😭☠️
☝🏾☝🏾
Why is this mane lying 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Straight 🧢
Dude is lieing
I dont get why people keep acting like this man didn't just getting busted for lying about his stint prison entirely, he never even been to prison as he said. So why tf would people believe his crime stories of all people..
@@edwardlee1841 Bruh dude was always getting locked up he said jus not 3 yrs straight he was getting locked up few weeks their 2 months here 4 months their.
@@controversialmann5345 ...Bruh has never even been to prison, not for a day...he lied. He's been to jail a few times but that's it...its not the same as what he claimed..He named his label convict music. He's a fraud in that aspect no matter how you try to clean up his lie my boy.
Shoutout to all my African niggas watching this. Akon a legend
Damn he was gettin real money.....Natural hustler
But he really wasn't though.
One of the best interviews in a while
They’re about to be playing this in court...🤦🏽♂️
he's dropping a lot of gems in this one if you listen carefully
Akon is very smart and deserves all the accolades he has received.
It’s all fake. Akon was exposed and admitted that he’s made up his “gangsta life” in previous interviews.
@@italiancapo7 👌🏻
@@italiancapo7 link please
No matter what Akon has done he’s always giving major opportunities to the people who need it lol what a boss and now he’s about to build a 6 billion dollar crypto city in Africa
Heads up that city ended up being a scam you can look it up
@@vaporware666 really?
@@vaporware666Exactly Akon is a criminal. Nobody should ever trust his business ventures, it's the same as emptying a bank account and throwing it into an open fire. He's a scammer not someone that actually contributed to society or would ever do so.
@@Ajaxx47 yup lol Google it
@@erictaylor3897 honestly can't believe people would have even believed this nonsense he pushed
Yeah, I think I would’ve kept that information to myself.
Statue of limitations bruh
Yeah, if you (Akon) are a front (for China) bringing public utilities (electricity) to cities & countries in Africa, it would be in your best interest not to laughingly retell stories of fraud in an interview....Because that tends to scare off potential investors and partners.
@@eliminator173 That didn't work out for Bill Cosby. If these white folks want to take a nigga down they use any mean necessary.
After you did time for the crime they cant arrest you again . double jeopardy
eliminator173 on armed robbery and gta? Lol doesn’t work like that lol
👌💯 Deserves a movie or docu-series
How ironic considering his car was just stolen
Moral of the story: Grandma Betty’s VW Beetle financed Akon success....
Akon a real Hustler ... no wonder he made so much in the music industry.
Hunnish Runnish- He’s a front for China. A black face to get them in the door further for their One Belt, One Road initiative.
Hunnish Runnish- Yep, that’s exactly what the European countries did back then. And now it’s China in Africa building roads, adding electricity, BUT REALLY plundering the “rare earth materials” that fuel all the smart electronics we use right now & going forward (that are manufactured in China).
Hunnish Runnish- The long money is in electronics. China only needs to extract the natural resources from Africa and get it back to China to use their own low cost labor to build the iPhones etc. Slaves from Africa were the old natural resource, Rare Earth Metals (cobalt, lithium, coltan, tantalum etc) from Africa are the new natural resource. And instead of giving Africans guns & textiles (like the Europeans did) for slaves; the Chinese are installing electricity & roads (which can provide recurring revenue) for access to the Rare Earth Metals.

Akon: Ummm
THIS NEEDS TO BE A MOVIE!!!
Vlad, be glad because you have hit the lottery with this one! Akon been hanging around with Tekashi too much, he really shouldn't of divulged all this tho. He might get someone other than himself caught up.
this shit is from the 90's long and gone so why not tell it
That stuff was almost 20 years ago. Nothing is the same with any of that.
I think he might be over exaggerating some parts.
The statues of limitations is long gone
“Freedom ain’t getting no closer, no matter how far I drove, my car is STOLEN no registration!” Hahaha
AKON IS A GENIUS,

“Flirt with them a lil bit, take em out to eat”
I knew him in atl in 96/97 he lived in stone mountain. I had ZERO idea. He actually had a deal back then. Had a song called 'crack rock'.
