Soulja Boy To Clean Up His Act, “I Need To Set A Positive Example For The Kids”

 •  XXL Magazine  •  by XXL Staff  •  24 Comments

During an interview with the Associated Press, Soulja Boy apologized for using vulgar language in his music and on his popular YouTube videos.

The Atlanta based rapper, whose album iSouljaboytellem dropped on Tuesday (12/16), said he was sorry to all the parents of his fans for cussing and talking about inappropriate situations.”Over the past few months, I’ve had a chance to meet a lot of my fans face to face and it made me realize that I got a large fan base of kids that look up to me,” he told the AP. “I have a greater responsibility to the kids that want to be like Soulja Boy (and) I need set a positive example for them.”

SB who is known for sparking a dance craze across young America with his hit “Crank That (Soulja Boy),” was criticized for the song’s line “Superman that hoe.”  The 18-year-old rapper has also been shown urinating off a balcony and blowing his nose into a hundred dollar bill on his popular YouTube channel.

In related news, along with releasing his sophomore album earlier this week, it was revealed that the teen sensation is getting into the videogame business. He is currently in the process of developing a game for the Xbox 360. –Elan Mancini

    Hi I’m G-UNOT KILLA!!
    Unlike Tony Yayo I really DO SMACK LITTLE BOYS WHEN I PLAY THEM IN NBA LIVE 95 (when they are preteen age). I’m a “KILLA” but the only thing I smack the shit out of is my child molesting lips when I chew bubblegum (Big League Chew)I like to fantasize about smacking old men, young men, and especially little boys like “Soulja Boy”
    As a G-Unot Killa I’m the expert on whose lips are ashy and who’s are not, especially young boys. I hope that by posting how I smack men and boys, and steal their girls, extort pocket change, and travel all over the country while I hold down a janitor job in my fake hood that young female (or male) interns at the record companies will get my size 6 feet in the door and onto a record label making R&B ringtone hit songs with just a smidgen of Ja-Rule esque “KILLA” 8 bar rap screaming on the bridge. Then my grandmomma will be proud and allow me to move out of my basement. She said she will even pay the security deposit on a Barstow 1 bedroom if my first royalty payment can cover the 1st month DOWN (on my knees pymt.) I’m so excited I’m gonna creat another character now to all my fellow bloggers content. They will laugh at who I beat down ( I mean went down on)and how many ex sports stars or black entertainment individuals I reference, especially if my lame stories have metaphors. Lately I don’t even smack the shit out of others anymore. I just get off smacking myself around-it’s so much easier than taking the energy to realize one of my fantasies of hurting another human being.

      When I catch you I’m blasting on site!

    Back to the more important point:

    Soulja Boy is just a boy- that made a good hit.
    He can tour, but he can’t continue to gimmick his way to more hit records.

    Nothing wrong in keeping it kid friendly so long as he sticks with the script that he writes for himself. Can’t change it up in 4 years and drop the Boy from his name or act super G all of a sudden.

    “Making” video games just means he will allow himself to receive small amounts of money for the right to use his likeness. Most likely any S.B. game won’t be a hit or marketed as a top title. He better accept his 2-3 year stint of fame.

    Obviously this young cat is doing something right for so many grown ass men to be hating on him. I personally wont buy any of his music and I was angry as fuck with his slave master comments but the dude at least had the balls to man up and admit he was wrong. And you muthafuckas still hating on this young as 19 year old kid?? Any black man making legit money is ok in my book, all you grown ass hateful muthafuckas should get your shit together. Find something constructive to complain about like the fucked up eductaion system not some kid who obviously is a victim of the very same school system. Black folk are our own worst enemies…………….

    Well, it didn’t take long for him to go back to “fuck, shit, nigger, ho” etc, proving he can’t even keep a fucking promise to his fans.

    What a tool.
