Soulja Boy
Kanye:
Soulja boy is fresh ass hell and is actually the true meaning of what hip hop is sposed to be. He came from the hood, made his own beats, made up a new saying, new sound and a new dance with one song. He had all of America rapping this summer. If that ain't Hip Hop then what is? A bunch of wannabe keep it real rappers that ain't even relevant, recycling samples trying to act like it's 96 again and all they do is hate on new shit? Niggas always talk about the golden age but for a 13 year old kid, this is the golden age!!! That song was so dope cause everything he said had a hidden meaning... that's Nas level shit... he just put it over some steel drums which is also some Nas shit if you had the 2nd album cassette with the bonus track "Silent Murder" on it. In closing... new niggas get ya money$ Keep this shit fresh and original.... ain't no fuckin' rules to this shit and that's what real hip hop is to me.

I actually agree with Soulja boy, yeah he aint lyrical, but he's still doing his thing.. during the time of album sales being down for everyone.. this guy comes outta nowhere and almost goes platinum, im never gon buy his album, never gon listen to him... hell i wont ever do the dance... but he's right though.. and it is funny when he roasts Ice-T LOOOOOOL
ReplyDeleteHe handles the situation real maturly instead of going off and hating this dude, so Ice T is the one who makes himself look like a jackass
as for Kanye West, he lost cool points comparing Nas and soulja boy... although Soulja boy is very successful, Kanye lost major cool points for that comparison
KANYE HAS LOST HIS MIND. and what makes him think all 13 year old kids love this, i know tons of people who hate this pop music.
ReplyDeleteno Kanye is right actually and Ice does look like a jack ass. Half the kids singing the song didnt have a clue what they were sayin tho. Ive heard songs much worse than what soulja boy puts out and hes the worst? be serious. How strong was hip hop and how much credit are you giving all the other hip hop artist if he single handedly killed it?
ReplyDeleteNo one ever said it wasn't hip-hop... it's hip-hop... it's just shitty hip-hop... just because youre from the hood, make a beat and make up a "saying" and a dance doesn't make it good hip-hop... soulja boy is not good music and there is nothing in the world that can change my mind about that... congrats to him for getting money but there's things more important in the world... in ten years soulja boy will be back in the projects...

Its probably a 1 hit wonder, but then again if he markets himself right like he did teh first time, then he will easily sell again, CD Sales in Hip Hop aint down, promotions and marketing is down, for example Chamillionaire super marketed himself with Sound of Revenge and went plat, but he didnt on his 2nd album and sold shit... album sales aint down, people just stop marketing themselves because they assume they will super sell again... false.. Marketing is key in Hip Hop, look at consequence for example, spent NO time marketing himself and soldl ike 7000 albums first month... feel me?
ReplyDeletethats why with PropaYne, Im gon super market him every single time, every single song, every single album.. propayne will definitley sell, look at Kanye, he markets himself in everh album and look how good he sells.. prime example
i ride with soulja boy on this 1.
ReplyDeletehis song might not be the best or whateva u want to say but he's doin what he can to provide for his mum,sista,brother,himself and u cnt h8 on that. i admire that.
YAAAAAAAAAAA hahaa
and yes he handled it well i was surprised.
