August Alsina is standing firm in his truth about his alleged affair with Jada Pinkett Smith, despite the actress and her husband, Will Smith, denying everything. Earlier this week, August sat down with Angela Yee for a tell-all interview, in which he confirmed the longtime rumours that he and Jada had been romantically involved in the past. He even claimed that Will had given him his blessing, which Will has since denied. Jada's rep also refuted his claims about the affair, stating that they are "absolutely not true." Jada is planning on addressing the situation on Red Table Talk soon, but before she had the chance, August spoke out once more, insisting that he is speaking his truth but that there was no malice or ill intent in his confession.
"God said, We may grow weary and tired fighting in the fire, but we shall NOT be burned!" he begins the lengthy Instagram post. "The journey to freedom is a deeply complex, tricky, and turbulent road to tow; yet very necessary. Oppression comes in so many forms these days, beginning w/ physical slavery and bondage to the white man, then passed down generational programming that manifest into mental enslavement. Slaves to an idea, slaves to an image, slaves to a code of conduct, slaves to a picture you’ve created in your mind.. even if it contains many falsities.. & anything that differentiates from your 'idea' & 'image' feels like an attack. & I get it; not only do i get it but I’m also sorry you feel that way, BUT, The only attack here is against the invisible walls of silent societal construct and 'code' we place upon each other & upon ourselves hidden behind the desires of others approval & acceptance; another form of slavery & bondage that blocks one’s truest self from showing & spirit flow. Be blocked and stuck for what? Live silent, pressed down crippled in fear for who ? Adversary is but a gift given to you to flourish."
"We are surround by so much disharmony in this external world," he continues. "so it is my forever job to do whatever’s necessary to reach the gift of harmony within myself. Truth & Transparency makes us uncomfortable, yes, but i can’t apologize for that. A tower of truth can never fall, only a tower of lies can do that. My truth is MY truth, & its mine to own. There is no right or wrong here, it simply just IS. & I make room and have acceptance for your thoughts and opinions, regardless if I agree or not, you have that freedom to feel WHATEVER it is u feel because when you’re at TRUE peace, all of the noise and chatter becomes that of a whisper."
"My heart has no malice or hate toward anyone on this planet," he stresses. "I just simply want the chains off & I’m willing to DIE getting there. The gift of freedom is yours to have, God promises us that, but only if you’re willing. &God is not a man that HE should lie.. & I’m His SON, so neither would I. With that being said i should also say that, no one was side swiped by any conversation, everyone got courtesy calls time in advance. Wishing Everyone Big Love!"
