In 2015 Akon, an international artist, visited Hot 95.7, a local Hartford hip-hop radio station. During the interview Akon promised the produced Jenny BomBom that he would give her a Telsa, if she continued to play his music on the radio. Following the interview Jenny BomBom continued to play Akon's music.Like many artist Akon stopped making music and lost popularity. Jenny stopped playing Akon's music.Nevertheless, instead of becoming a one hit wonder Akon became a global businessman and philanthropist.Recently, Hot 95.7 announced that Akon would be making new music and would be returning to the Hot 97.5 station for an interview to promote his music. Jenny mentioned that she is still looking for her Telsa and will ask Akon for it when he comes back to the station. When Akon arrives, he gets served a summons from a local Hartford music artist saying that his new song sounds just like his YouTube/IG/Snapchat hit song. Annoyed Akon goes on the radio.Before Jenny BomBom can mention that Akon has not given her the Telsa, he announces that he is no longer partners with Telsa, because they failed to deliver electricity to Puerto Rico as they promised.Akon also states that Telsa has failed to recall thousands of vehicles, as a result of a recent whistle blower complaint that the vehicles can stop running if you do not charge every hour, even though they market that they only require one charge a week. Akon is furious, so when Jenny BomBom see him, she decides to have his lawyer serve a complaint for breach of contract regarding the Telsa.
