Eminem collaborator Akon has admitted his record company have put a gagging order on him after he admitted to having three wives.
The rapper, originally from Senegal, told radio interviewer Angie Martinez he was �a polygamist� who could �afford to have as many wives as I can afford to have�.
However, the unconventional comments didn�t go down well with Universal, who have now banned him from talking about it further � which Akon claims exposes the Land of the Free�s inherent hypocrisy.
He tells AllHipHop.com, �After me and Angie had that conversation, situations started getting heated. It started affecting other people that had nothing to do with us.
�Because of that, (the label) said they don't want me to promote that aspect, and I can't talk about that too much because it's destroying other people's families and other things. I said, 'Ok, no problem.'
"I gave them the word to where I won't promote it too much, to where it won't be a topic to where it starts getting tainted into those situations. Unfortunately, this is the world we live in, people do judge you by your beliefs and how you think. It's a free country, but it's really not free."
