In one of his last interviews with Slikour which came out about a month ago, AKA told Slikour that he had been nurturing his relationship with God.

He had been building a relationship with God over the last couple of years.

“I don’t want to sound like one of those Christians, but I definitely spent more time with God over the last year or two. As Kanye would say, you got to find God fam. So that’s what I did.”

The Supamega had been taking things one day at a time and appreciating life.

“God and family, just taking things in its stride because for me, any success right now I’ve already gone through the worst, so anything right now is kind of a bonus.

“I’m just happy to be alive, flourishing, and still having my family. I’m going to do it for them.”
