It’s just gonna give all the fans just that insight that they lookin’ for. They wanna know as much as they can about they favorite rapper, and that’s what this movie [is] here for.”

Soulja Boy Tell’em Why You Going to Jail!

Posted by Natalia Buia on October 18th, 2011

Oh boy! Soulja Boy better work that orange jumpsuit. He may be wearing it for a while.

The 21-year-old rapper whose real name is DeAndre Cortez Way, was arrested this morning in Temple, Georgia for weed possession.

TMZ reports cops say Soulja was in a car with four other men and a ton of marijuana. All five men were arrested on the spot.

It’s also alleged that there were guns in the car, but police have not confirmed this.

It sure is a coincidence he’s arrested a few days before the release of his Soulja Boy: The Movie DVD. Or is it?

A Soulja Boy Documentary Coming Out

Posted by andPOP Staff on September 28th, 2011

 

If you dislike Soulja Boy, perhaps you just don’t fully understand him. Well, you are in luck! There is a new Soulja Boy documentary coming out which should clear up misconceptions about the rapper.

Soulja Boy – The Movie will take an in-depth look at the artist, and discuss his power of social media and his musical talent. The film is directed by Peter Spirer, who has made films about Tupac Shakur, Notorious B.I.G. and the Beefseries.

Spirer says, “Soulja Boy is undoubtedly one of the most creative, entrepreneurial hip-hop artists I have ever dealt with. His ability to monetize the internet and his grasp of social media is unparalleled. I think sometimes the press, the public and his peers dismiss him due to lack of understanding or jealousy, and that’s where I hope my film comes in — a straight forward intimate look at a talented young man.”

Will you go see it?

Soulja Boy Apologizes To US Troops

Posted by andPOP Staff on September 6th, 2011

Soulja Boy has been getting some bad press after insulting U.S. Troops in his most recent song. Soulja says, ”F**k the FBI and the army troops … fighting for what? Be your own man …”

Now he is realizing the error in his ways. In a blog post, Soulja writes, “As an artist, I let my words get the best of me. Sometimes there are things that we feel, things that we want to express, and when we put them on paper and speak them out loud, they can come out wrong.”

“When I expressed my frustration with the US Army, not only did my words come out wrong, I was wrong to even speak them.”

He adds, “So, I write this to give my sincerest apology to all members of the United States military services, as well as their families that were offended by my most recent lyrics.”

Too late for sorries buddy. And could you pick a worse time? Right before the 9/11 Anniversary?

Soulja Boy Insults U.S. Armed Forces

Posted by andPOP Staff on September 5th, 2011

Soulja Boy has an uncanny ability to make enemies and make an ass out of himself. Earlier this summer it was revealed he was lying when he claimed to be buying a $55 Million private jet. Now he has insulted the armed forces, and they are pissed.

In his new song “Let’s Be Real” he says:

F**k the FBI and the army troops … fighting for what? Be your own man … 
… I’ll be flying through the clouds with green like I’m Peter Pan.

Now there are veterans demanding an apology, and claiming Soulja Boy is ungrateful. And especially with the 10th Anniversary for 9/11 quickly approaching, his timing couldn’t have been worse.

Soulja Boy Owes Uncle Sam Money

Posted by andPOP Staff on August 3rd, 2011

Soulja Boy is not starting his 21st year on a high note. First he was caught lying about buying a $55 Million jet, and now reports claim he owes money in back taxes.

Soulja Boy owes $26,805 in back taxes. He was also alleged to have owed the State of Mississippi $3,571 in back taxes, but settled that bill last month, reports RadarOnline.com.

However, even though he can’t pay his tax bill, he still threw a $300,000 birthday party for his friends in Miami.

Dude, stop lying about planes and start paying your bills.

Soulja Boy Lying About Buying $55 Million Plane

Posted by andPOP Staff on July 30th, 2011

And Soulja Boy gets us again. First with his dumb music, and now he and his entourage were lying about him buying a $55 Million private plane.

Soulja was interviewed by TMZ and other outlets about this extravagant purchase, and every time he verified that he bought the plane. This lie was also spread through Soulja’s management team.

Now Soulja’s publicist has come forward saying the story is bogus. Greg Miller said  the “elaborate rumors” are “not true.”

We are not sure what’s more of a douche move. Buying a $55 Million airplane in the first place, or lying about it and then getting caught. Unfortunately based on what we have seen with Soulja, we are not surprised about this elaborate lie.

Soulja BoySoulja Boy Tell’em is out of jail after spending the night behind bars on Wednesday, following his arrest on a charge of obstruction.

Soulja Boy Ready To Prove Doubters Wrong

Posted by Jeremy Singer on April 13th, 2009

Soulja BoySoulja Boy’s sophomore and latest album “iSouljaBoyTellem” was a test.

Would this second year Hip-Hop artist’s career be solely defined by his 2007 debut album’s hit party single “Crank That”- which propelled the Chicago native to instant fame?

Or would the 18-year-old be able to prove his consistency as an artist in the music industry , and once again punch out another club rocker.

Well initially, the second album released in September, didn’t get the love Soulja thought it deserved. But as time progressed, it’s sixth single “Kiss Me Thru The Phone” caught fire, taking the no. 3 spot on the Billboard US top 100 and luring over one million downloads in ring tone sales. It’s a buzz which Soulja believes is the beginning of a massive turn-around.

“I think my plan for my second album wasn’t perfect,” Soulja Boy tells andPOP. “It wasn’t 100% thought through. For the first album, I was the new artist- and everything just fell into place- but for the second album, the plan wasn’t really what I wanted it to be, but now it’s starting to turn around. ‘Kiss Me Thru The Phone’ is killing the billboard charts right now, and ‘Turn my Swag On’ is taking the streets.”
