The “Locked Up” singer says Michael’s dedication lead him to indulge in pills.
Akon also shared that the Thriller star wanted to give fans the experience of a lifetime with his final show, adding, “He would be up for weeks at a time thinking about how he wanted everybody to have the most amazing experience, he wanted to create something that was going to be talked about for centuries.” The Grammy Award winning singer added that when you love your craft like Michael did, it’s hard to get any rest. “You are going to need help to get sleep,” he shared. “Because your mind is constantly moving and your energy and your flow [are] electric to the point where you cannot turn it off.”
This isn’t the first time Akon spoke out in defense of his peers. Last month, he defended Kanye West after he received backlash for selling Yeezy clothes in trash bags. “personally, I would tell those same people to take the clothes they’re not wearing, and go give it to the homeless,” he shared. You do something.”
