August Alsina Responds After Jada Pinkett Smith Denies Alleged Affair

August Alsina is standing by his “truth” when it comes to his relationship with Jada Pinkett Smith.

Earlier this week, Alsina disclosed intimate details about his alleged affair with the Girls Trip actress in a recent interview with The Breakfast Club’s Angela Yee, even going as far as to claim it was her husband, Will Smith, who supposedly greenlit their sexual rendezvous.

Jada has since denied these claims, with her team denouncing Alsina’s account as “absolutely not true!!” to Page Six. What’s more, she seemingly alluded to addressing the situation on an upcoming episode of her show, Red Table Talk, when she broke her silence on the matter this Thursday (July 13). “There's some healing that needs to happen…so I'm bringing myself to The Red Table,” Jada tweeted.

Despite the media storm his confession caused, Alsina doubled down on his truth in a lengthy Instagram post shared Friday (July 3). "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,” the “Nunya” crooner wrote.

“Truth & Transparency makes us uncomfortable, yes, but i can’t apologize for that,” the “Nunya” crooner added. “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.”

In so many words, Alsina stands firm on what he revealed in the interview, and concluded that “no one was side swiped by any conversation, everyone got courtesy calls time in advance.”

God said, We may grow weary and tired fighting in the fire, but we shall NOT be burned! 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, 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. 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. 🙏🏽 W/ 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!
