AKA confirms on Twitter that he’s broke #AKASanamali

AKA had previously opened about the shoddy deal that he had with the sports apparel brand, Reebok, to make his now iconic and now collector’s item sneaker, the SNEAKA. The series of tweets explaining how he was only signed on by Reebok as a brand ambassador, and didn’t receive royalties for his signature sneaker led to several stating that the rapper is broke.

As a sort of retaliation to the speculation that was running rampant on social media, AKA the rapper turned the joke it’s head when he began to ridicule at himself by saying that he’s actually broke and every one his bragging was a façade. AKA started the joke after being his partnership with Cruz Vodka is legit, unlike the Reebok deal he had. The F.R.E.E assured his fans that the deal was above board.

But while social media users speculated whether he was telling the reality the rapper used the speculations to plug his AKA TV and his Cruz Watermelon flavoured vodka. AKA started the trending hashtag #AKASanamali so as to prove how influential a brand he’s his, which topped the trends list.
