Akon has been sued for $39,000 for breach of contract by lawyers that he hired last year.
According to TMZ, the Senegalese singer hired the firm Yoss last year, but then balked on paying $39,363.74 for legal services. The firm is now suing him for failing to fork over the money.
In response to the lawsuit, Akon has filed a counterclaim, stating that there is no basis for the suit. He is asking the judge to dismiss the case.

I don’t understand why all these rich men always fucking people over and not paying them thinking they can get away with it and this time it was a lawyer
Well obviously there’s enough of a basis for them to file the suit. Funny how all of these supposed “rich” artists are really struggling with money. In Akon’s case, his new album never came out.
his new album is the future detox
Haven’t heard shit from Akon in a while. Thought he might’ve died or something.

Akon supposedly “rich”? He discovered Lady Gaga and got her signed, he basically finacially retired his worries at that very moment.
Exactly. But not basically, he can retire off that GAGA money.
