this song is really good! perez not everyone likes the same type of music. just cause u dont like it doesnt mean its the worst video ever! u fucking plunker! MORON!
ID LIKE TO C U TRY AT A MUSIC CAREER!
OK PEREZ….. THIS IS NOT A BAD VIDEO OR SONG AND I'M NOT AN AKON FAN.
I love people who appologize or the things they haven't yet done. Why don't they just decide to not be an ass and then they won't to say they're sorry?
he may be an asshole but i feel bad for the whole 14 year girl thing…really how was he supposed to know??
this video does suck….
that was so boring!!!!!!!!!!!!
couldnt agree more
holy shit! this is like the best thing ever.
…
…
…
NOT!
Such a douche.. He's just blaming others and playing the victim here. No Akon, we won't feel sorry for you. Act your age thank you very much
Akon freakin' blows
So how does he regard the whole scandal on stage?
"I’m sorry for the hand that she was dealt
For the embarrassment that she felt
Just a little young girl trying to have fun
Her daddy should never let her out that young
I’m sorry for Club Zen getting shut down
I hope they manage better next time around
How was I to know she was underage
In a 21 and older club they say
Why doesn’t anybody wanna take blame
Verizon backed out disgracing my name
I’m just a singer trying to entertain"
dont forget to apologize to tara reid, oh yea and also that kid you threw off the stage.
watch out for put the blame on me PART II!
pathetic..
I like it… At least he is saying Sorry…
I thought it was good. Besides he has a really great voice.
I'm sorry P but I have to differ with you on this one. I am not an expert judge on Vid's but it and the song (esp combined) say/send out some pretty powerful/good/ and very needed messages at this time….song is prob not gonna be a HUGE hit but it is NICE non the less and video is a slow but POWERFUL non the less
WOW what a terrible vid, Decent message and no big fat euro transgender. Gets my vote for worse. Where you not able to hold him hostage with you blog Perez
(Although your not the one writing anymore) your too buisy doing all the things you condem the celebs or doing.
Perez, did you notice that the ultimate point of Akon's song is to say to that young girl he dry humped on stage, that even though the blame is on her and her and her father, he'll take that blame away….. He is so full of shit and ultimately still not taking responsibility. its not just that she was underage, it was also his disrespect for women and lewd behavior- Not to mention how f#%&ed up it was when he threw the kid off the stage at another concert. This song is not redeeming at all. He is a slime ball. I hope he reads this. PLEASE POST SOMETHING ON HOW UN-APOLOGETIC HIS SONG IS AND WHAT HE SHOULD BE SORRY FOR.
Whatever, Akon has an amazing voice and is totally hot. All you haters only wish you could be half of what he is.
Ahhh, note the line where he tries to place blame on others as well? This guy couldn't spell responsibility if if it was burnt into his hand.
Its not that bad…
Apecoon sucks
I DONT THINK ITS ALL THAT BAD, I FEEL BAD FOR HIM… I LIKE HIS MUSIC
It was 100% the clubs fault, as well as the girls and the parents. That girl shouldn't have even been there. I love this song and I'm glad he didn't bend over and take it up the a$$. He's right and he's put it out there.
he's got more talent in his pinky finger then you do in your whole fat ass body pick on someone else who has no talent
This song is CRAP! It sounds like it took 2 seconds to write.
I Like It
This is the first song that I LIKE. It's better than those whiney-ass "woe is me" songs.
PEOPLE- you act like everything is PERSONAL and he's done something to you! Get a grip.
FIRST, SECOND and THIRD WTF!?!?!?….elementary school didn't leave you lacking did it? First just means you have NO LIFE…go get one. Perez even has a life beyond the board.
Ummm LEROY….Watch yourself…FOR REAL. Leave that racist shit in the trailer park by the TV sitting on the couch beside the rusted out car in your front yard.
good for him. every one's fucked up, at least he can admit it.
what a good song.
he has so much talent when it comes to writing lyrics
AKON IS A CUNT AND HE GIVES BLACK PEOPLE A BAD NAME.
PEOPLE SHOULD STOP BYING THIS CAPOLA, HIT HIM WHERE IT HURTS, THE POCKET.
He still doesn't get it does he. It's not about the age of the girl but about the VIOLENCE of the way he treated her. Noone should be dry humped on a stage like this, regardless of their age. And the fact that she had accepted to get onstage to *dance* (to dance yes , to get assaulted no) is totally irrelevant. It's similar to saying that a rape is not a rape if the girl had a short skirt or had been making out with the guy before. Total nonsense.
This guy has no respect for women. Nor for kids for that matter. Remember how he threw a kid in the audience just because he had thrown a paper cup at him? Get over yourself you punk!!
If you guys want to listen to good Senegalese hip-hop, listen to Daara J or Positive Black Soul instead, Akon does not deserve to have fans.
Akon sucks.
if the same exact situation applied to any other singer, do u think he would have made a song about it? NO WAY. Akon is showing that he dosnt have a problem with drawing attention to mistakes he's made…
OMG, that was soo fkn SHIT!!
RNB IS DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Its all about House & Electro Peoples!!!!!!
WHen will the rest of america follow the path the rest of the world is setting. New York is definately on the ball! COME ON AMERICA!! WAKE UP!!
i think dis video is great nd perez shld stop hating
Don't be mad at him. Damn. No wonder all the celebretards are cracked out freaks. One glance at what Perez says…one of the most inlfuential people in the media…and then they feed off THAT attn. So it's no wonder you'd actually talk shit about the stars that are trying to do GOOD things. You only like the news about who sucking who's dick and smoking that crack pipe. I WAS almost interested in watching you on VH1 perez.. until I realized. I don't like being pursuaded by bad media. You should get some class. I'd never see YOU take blame for shit you didnt do. Precious perez taint his already bad name?? Of course not!
Akon is so lame - issuing an apology does not mean saying "even if the blame's on you, you can put the blame back on me" - he is so dumb he doesn't even know how to say sorry or look like he has any remorse for trying to hump some girl. Even if she wasn't underage that is still bad what's his problem - sexual assault is bad even if you are more than 15 years old!
First btw
I think it's nice that he is trying to show kids to take resposibilty
This guy is a TOOL!
SPONSERS have pulled out of the concert? as i always say, if you are going to rant in any way, please make sure all the words are spelled correctly. geesh.
i like the video.
people who apologize for "things that haven't occurred yet" are retards
Lame and contrived. The 'apology' concept completely constructed and put together by Akon's management & record label to appeal to the mass victim mentality of so many young people of colour. "Hey if I was white you wouldn't have attacked me for fondling that 14 year old girl AND for throwing that child concert goer into the audience". YES WE WOULD HAVE!! Child abuse is child abuse, no matter what colour, creed or gender you are!! Please keep Akon away from the UK. He's not welcome over here!
I liked the video and I like the song
I think the video was good, he's not perfect nor are we.
People in glass house shouldn't through stones!
wat a load of crap!!!!!!!!!
god i hate that bloke such a perv
Oh yeah huh what about that poor kid he threw off the stage lmao Now that was funny. Fuck Tara Reid she wanted to be dry humped lmao But he could've done a way better casting job. That so-called gangsta was a straight lame. They should've used a hot ass thug. But instead they used a hot ass bald cop! God Damn! He easily could've been the thug! THUG LOVE, BABY!
This sucks the big elephant balls….
the bitch in the beginning on the phone is butt ugly. also, this video sucks and akon is an untalented asshole
*sigh* who cares…NEXT.
Why make a song to apologize for something you're really not sorry about? All he did was say he was sorry and then not take full responsibility (I'll take the blame, even though the blames on you). No one likes a half-assed apology, I'd respect him more if he didn't apologize at all. What a pig, even if the girl was over 18 he shouldn't go around humping people that he doesn't know. He's disgusting and his shirts are way way too tight. They're hurting me.
The song and video are not bad at all maybe if you listened to the words you would understand the point he is trying to make.
How is he saying sorry when at the end he; saying "even though the blames on you"? How is that an apology? And would his dry hump of the girl been okay if she win 22? It was still wrong ! This is so damn dumb!
Ugh. I love Akon, but this video= zzzzzzzzz……
Great video..i thought it was good!!
I'm not an Akon fan, BUT if he's at a club for people over the age of 21, he wouldn't really be thinking "geezz…I wonder if she's 14…"
"I’ll take the blame, even though the blames on you"
#55 is so right, he's such a effing douchebagl And he has no talent, and he was trying to make it a black thing, I'm black and there's no way you can blame your acting like a skanky animal on the white man. In fact he's only making black men look ten times worse because he such a perv. Quit humping women and girls you don't know and quit throwing kids off the stage. And next time you want to make an I'm sorry song, actually be genuinely sorry, because we know you're going to screw up again.
wow this vid is boring
his nose is soooooo wde and
a black mans voice should never be that high.
the end.
ok, the video isnt exactly amazing, but i love the song.
not bad at all
well i think ur wright about him taking himself a lil' bit to serious but i think its sweet that he DID accualy appolagize about everything, and he does have a really sexy voice
I'm sorry that this video is so dumb!!!!
how many times do you get to say.. sorry.. the girl and the kid thrown off stage? Gwen should have kicked him off tour- no more excuses. i don't buy his songs and don't buy his apology. DON'T support people who act irresponsibly.
I didn't think it was bad at all…. actually a pretty catchy song and not a horrible video
