Popular 27 year old singer, August Alsina, recently declared in an interview with rapper, Lil Wayne on the season finale of Young Money Radio, that the affair he had with 48 year old Jada Pinkett-Smith, wife of Hollywood star, Will Smith, had ‘transformed’ him thereby bringing out the ‘king’ in him.
The singer also made it known that he still has love for Jada even after she openly described their relationship as an ‘entanglement’.
When asked by Lil Wayne if he still loved Jada who tagged their affair as an ‘entanglement’ in her recently aired Red Table Talk show with Will Smith, her husband, he replied, “Absolutely”.
He said, ” I feel like when you experience a certain type of experience on this planet and you experience a certain type of love, you, I’ll always, I will always have love for her as a person..Real talk though, real talk.
“The experience really did help to transform me and really bring out the king in me. But as for what people may say or whatever, or if it’s looking like I might, I’m doing something for attention. Absolutely not..
“I mean, what’s perplexing to me is that I never think it’s anybody’s business to know my business. And my personal business. But, when my personal business starts to affect my lifestyle and my livelihood, like I lost partnerships and deals behind that situation.
“Because it looked to the world as if August Alsina was some reckless New Orleans ni**a that I’m just pushing up on somebody’s wife. And because they didn’t have the truth, those things happened and transpired.
“And then when the truth was revealed, so many of those same people came back around it and apologised to me like, ‘ I’m sorry, my bad. I didn’t know'”.

Insisting on his previous claims that Will gave him ‘his blessings’ to have an affair with his wife, Jada, August said;
“Everything that i’ve spoken on in my initial interview is and was, and still is, my exact truth. I sat and had a conversation. As two men, we had a conversation and that’s what it was.
“I think that people, because of the narrative that was painted, believed that oh, I’m speaking about this because I’m salty that they ended up getting back together when that’s never been the case.
“They weren’t seeing each other in that way, but still and respect each other as family. We sat down as two men, like, ‘Yo, boom. You have my love. You have my blessing’. And that’s the situation as a whole..
“It’s complicated because I don’t want to be the person to cause confusion in nobody’s world. But when something is coming down in my world and affecting my world, it’s like, look we got to – I’m ready to be honest. That’s really all it’s about.
“But nobody is a bad person here. Not him. Not her. Not anybody. I have love for everybody. The biggest love, dog. I really do. You know what i’m saying?”
The singer also recently released a new track titled ‘Entanglements’ featuring popular rapper, Rick Ross.
