Commenting on women in Africa, Akon said: “Women [there] treat you like a man, like a king. They don’t compete with you or fight for equality because they understand that men and women can never be the same. They understand their roles.
‘The roles there and very defined and very clean, here even if you say the word role to a woman. If I say, if you play your part and you play mine, they say, what the hell do you mean play my part? what paper?
“Everyone has a role that is the infrastructure of life and if your wife doesn’t understand her position in life, everyone is confused.”
He continued: ‘How can a man and a woman play exactly the same role, where is the balance? In Africa it is very clear, the woman plays the role of the woman.’

Akon went on to insist that women are uniquely made to endure the pain caused by men and remain loyal to them, something that comes “naturally”, he insisted.
He said: ‘God installed love, emotions and compassion in a woman because as a mother figure, those things have to be instilled. This is why women pick up on feelings so quickly and why they can endure so much pain, because that loyalty comes naturally.
‘As a woman, your role is to support the man. Men are the kings and the divine of this universe, a woman can never be compared to a man. They have to understand that here in the United States.

Akon, who recently surprised fans with his $7,500 hair transplant, went on to explain his views on procreation, insisting that men can have babies without the help of a woman.
He said: ‘Women don’t create life, they support the creation of life. We are gods, we are the ones who create life.
‘Let me tell you the science of this. A man right now can create life without a woman, but a woman cannot create life without a man.
‘If I wanted to do it right now, I would shoot my sperm and put it in an incubator and give it nine months, maybe even less with current science, and a baby would be born.
A woman can’t do that. So, men, we are the creators of life today.’
