Suge Knight claims that Akon and his longtime producer, Detail, once raped a 13-year-old girl, who was the sister of one of Knight’s associates. He recalled the alleged incident during an interview with Source magazine co-founder Dave Mays on his new podcast, Collect Call.
“I wasn’t going to bring it up,” Suge began while addressing Akon directly. “[But] one of my homegirls, she was a hustler. She had a little sister — 13 years old. And her best friend was 12 years old. She’s in the car with him. You and Detail call her [Suge’s homegirl]. And she said, ‘I got my little sister and her best friend with me.’ I said, ‘Well, then stop by for a second.’ She go by y’all hotel, in y’all room, and she gets a call. It was the dudes she met at the hotel when she was coming to see you muthaf*ckas."
From there, Knight explained that Akon allegedly offered to watch the sister and her 12-year-old friend and ordered them food. Knight continued: “She goes to the next room … she says she comes back in about 35 minutes. When she gets back in the room, her little sister and that other little girl don’t wanna eat. They look scared. And they’re crying. When she gets back in the car with them, they tell her, ‘Akon, you fucked the little girl, 13 — Detail fucked the little girl, 12 years old. Y’all raped them.'”
“So when she told me, I pulled up on her, and she said she’s going to the police to put you muthaf*ckas in jail for rape,” he concluded. “I said, ‘Nah, we don’t do that, telling to the police. I’ll deal with it. I promise you that.’ So I was trying to catch you muthaf*ckas about that situation.” Neither Akon nor Detail have responded to Knight's allegation.

Killer Mike has inserted himself into Lil Yachty‘s controversial fashion debate with a reminder about Big Boi‘s history as a trendsetter.
After Yachty ruffled feathers by claiming that Atlanta is responsible for starting all of the current fashion trends and that New York has been biting the city’s style, Mike somewhat defended him by highlighting the A’s long-running sartorial influence.
Crediting the OutKast legend with pioneering one of Hip Hop’s most iconic looks, he wrote on X: “I have Zero Interest in this lame ass debate BUT, Big Boi Started the Throw Back Jersey Trend with that cold ass Houston Astro’s Jersey.”
He added: “Kanye (Atlanta Born) set the record straight on that, God Bless Him. Honorable Mention the ‘Flip Flop’s and Sox’ look was Some shit from the Dungeon Family.”
The Run The Jewels lyricist also shared a screenshot of Big Boi rocking said Astros jersey in Goodie Mob’s “Black Ice (Sky High)” music video in 1998.
After a user pointed out that Phife Dawg from A Tribe Called Quest would often wear sports jerseys before that video came out, Killer Mike clarified: “RIP OG Phife. He was a sports fan and inspired us all[.] with that said the Throw back Era is Something Big Boi who is also like us a Tribe Fan Started in 98 with that Black Ice Vid Houston Jersey. Long Live Tribe and Kast.”
Someone else pointed out that flip flops and socks had been prevelant in L.A. for years, to which Mike replied: “Cannot deny that BUT the Adidas Flop and Sox is what i am referring to not the OG Croaker Flops and House shoes. Adidas Flops and Soccer sox is some Rico Wade (RIP) shit.”
The debate began earlier this week after Lil Yachty said on his A Safe Place Podcast with special guest Cash Cobain: “I feel like New York didn’t have this — I don’t want to say identity — but everyone used to just kinda copy Atlanta. You said it yourself.
“Even, like, the influence was extremely heavy from Atlanta […] As far as style goes, I don’t think it’s shit going on when it comes to New York fashion.”
Lil Boat also took particular aim at people from the Bronx and Queens: “I feel just people on those outskirts — Queens, Bronx — do they even come to [Manhattan to shop]?”
His comments quickly caused a stir among New Yorkers, including fellow rappers Juelz Santana and Fivio Foreign.
“WE all Love Atl But did @lilyachty SAY say the flyes [ninja emoji] N the Most TRENDSETTERS Came from ALT WOW Much love bro,” Juelz wrote on Instagram.
He also highlighted the fashion imprint that both himself and fellow Dipset star Jim Jones have had on Hip Hop culture, as well as the impact of other fashion-forward NYC figures like A$AP Rocky and Fabolous.
Fivio, meanwhile, hit back on X: “How Yatchy say ATL dress better then ny w a whole NY fit.”
