Another day, another blow up from Soulja Boy…but does he have a point? Why do the media blow up the things that they think will make me look stupid or ignorant. Why not publicize or put me in the spotlight when I do positive things? What about...

  • Im not going to even front! When Soulja Boy first came out I was not a fan of his music and still is not but on the aspect of this young blacc man is doing somthing constructive with his time and energy and Im not knocking his hustle! He is out here getting his money and Im not made @ this dude @ all! People fail to relize he his on 19 years old and has a his whole life ahead of him! He is making music for that young crowd his age but we have grown ass adults talking bad about him! Go sit your grown ass down and let these young n*ggas get they money!! When you make so much money you get people thats going to envy you for that but its sad when you have grown ass haters! Everyone who had a bad comment about this dude yall is some official HATERZ! Get your money up and stop hating on these lil n*gga thats out here getting it!!! Smh!!
  • STOP the presses !! This is a very young man stop hatting ! That is what is wrong with us black people always looking for the faults in some one else.Get your sh*t straight before you talk about someone else.He is doing what he's what people his age are doing.Let him grow up.
  • YOU ASKED TO BE IN THE SPOT LIGHT, THEN YOU GET MAD BECAUSE YOU ARE IN THE SPOT LIGHT. IF YOU DONT WANT THE MEDIA COMMENTING ON THE SILLY CHILDISH STUFF YOU DO, THEN DONT DO IT, OR BETTER YET, DONT PUT IT ON YOU TUBE AND TWITTER. IM SO TIRED OF PEOPLE HIDING BEHIND THEIR AGE. YOU 19 A GROWN ASS MAN. ALOT OF CATS YOUR AGE GOING TO SCHOOL FULL TIME, WORKING A FULL TIME JOB AND SUPPORTING A FAMILY. ALSO, OTHER PEOPLE SHOULD TOUT YOUR GOOD WORKS AND HOW GREAT A PERSON YOU ARE, NOT YOU !!! AND WHY DONT YOU WANT TO BE A ROLL MODEL ? IS IT BECAUSE ITS TO HARD OR THAT YOU ARE 19 AND THEIR ARENT ANY OTHER 19 YR OLD ROLE MODELS YOU KNOW OF ????
    • You sound dumb! I am 28 years old, a grown man that is still growing! I left home @ 17 and been on my own since! You are NOT grown 19!! You may be doing grown thing but metally you are not grown @ 19!! far from it!!

  • that's jes celebrity life..get used to it...nobody wants to see you honestly do good..duh..papparazzii [spell check] looks for the bad things..THAT'S WHY YOU HAFTA DO GOOD! KEEP THEM FOOLED DNT GIVE THEM SOMETHING TO LOOK AT.
  • But so much of what he does is so stupid, it's hard to look over that amount of silliness.

    This fool was on youtube the other night bragging out a 'remote control car' chain he has!

    It's a bejeweled pendant that is also a REMOTE CONTROLLED CAR!

    That alone is enough reason to clown this fool from now until the end of his career!
  • soulja boy just take sum time off and recap cant nobody tell you what u should do or should have done just do you only you know what steps to take your real fans will still be here thats all i gotta say!!!
  • I think it is what you do as a entertainer on your leisure time is what the the media focus on.

  • WHEN U PUT URSELF IN THE MUSIC OR ENTERTIANMENT INDUSTRY THEN THE MEDIA IS GOING TO BE ON YOU LIKE WHITE ON RICE.. U SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT THE MEDIA BEFORE U STARTED TO MAKE THE MUSIC OR YOU CAN ALWAYS BECOME A PRIVATE PERSON LIKE MICHAEL JORDAN!
  • WE need to stick together and support one another. All the other races do but we will tear a person down... Im glad the brother is trying to be honest and make money... Kudos to Soulja boy...
  • Hell YEAH!!! We as black people are always too hard on one another, crabs in a bucket. Here was a 16 year old boy to start, and we critiqued and allow him to be critiqued like he was a 30 year old man. How many of us have misspoke or said something that we pray everyday that we can take back ESPECIALLY when we were teenagers? I was 19 and thought filet migon was FISH! We all live and learn! People would say he should know better but why? Why should he know better, who's taught him better? Do we KNOW he should know better? He is a young MS boy, why should he know better? Why are we not mentoring him and encouraging him to continue to stay in the studio and make music instead of being on the street corner selling drugs, he is a motivation for some of us grown ass people to get off of our asses and have hustle like his! My heart bleeds for him being a mother myself to young black boys that really love his music and look at him as an inspiration to what they can accomplish no matter their age or race. How sad would it be if he ended his life because of the pressure? Then people would say he should have thicker skin, or they wish they had of said something different. PEOPLE; he's just a 19 year old KID!!!
  • No, the media is not too hard on Soulja Boy. If you are going to put yourself in the spotlight, you should be prepared to accept whatever comes with that position (i.e. the good, the bad and the ugly). Furthermore, those who do charity, shouldn't be so quick to throw their "good deeds" around so all know how "kind, generous and thoughtful they are," but rather do the good still and leave it alone. I know he's young and has a lot to learn but he doesn't seem to want to learn anything other than how to put together another grossly unnecessary piece of jewelry. And I personally don't care how he spends his money; it is his and he shall do whatever he pleases with it. But rest assured, if he hasn't invested wisely and hired a proper accountant, I look forward to laughing at him 10 years from now on PerezHilton.com when he is audited into oblivion. It is just unfortunate that he continues to not only profit off of being a fool but is the fool still. <sigh> Perhaps there will be some progress in another 25 years.

  • EVERYTHING BLACK STARTED IN THE SOUTH, KNOW WE GOT RAP MUSIC, ITS LAST FRONTIER, IS THE SOUTH. WHERE THERE IS SOME RAP CREATIVITY, BUT AT AN UNDER EDUCATED SLAVE PRICE. DUMBED DOWN KIDS HELPS THE SPREADS OF THIS INFECTION. STATE TO STATE, DESTROYING RAPPERS AT THERE PEAK POTENTIAL, AGAIN PLACING A LIMITATIONS TO WHAT CAN BE OPTAIN. A SALERY CAP IS WHATS HAPPENEN, BUT ITS THE ARTEST DUTY TO SELL HIS WORTH TO THE FAN. RAP MUSIC THE PAST 10 YEARS HAS BEEN SLOWLY SLIPPING IN TALENT AND POTENTIAL, AND PICKED APART FOR A QUICK PROFIT AND A GOOD LOOK, TO SELL sh*t. BY THE BIG CORP.MUSIC LOBBIEST, THE GAME IS OVER SOLD, LIKE THE STOCK MARKET AND BOUND FOR A RESTRUCTURING. ITS WEAK AND NEEDS DISRESPECTING, AND 97% OF THE RAPPERS NEEDS IT TOO. THEY DONT WASH THERE HANDS BEFORE THEY EAT, OUT FLOSSING, KNOWING THAT THEY ARE WEAK, MENTALLY, AND IT SHOWS THRU THERE MUSIC. THEY JUMP IN THE GAME HEAD FIRST, WITHOUT THINKING ABOUT THE PEOPLE BEFORE THEM OR EVEN THE PEOPLE WHO PUT THEM THERE. WHATS THE NEXT MOVE OR THERE NEXT THREE MOVES SHOULD BE THERE RAP TOPIC. THE BLIND LEADING THE BLIND, AND NOW THE GAME BEGINS, PLACE YOUR BETS THE MUSIC FORMALLY KNOWN AS HIPHOP IS DEAD...
