  • Soulja Boy Defends His Performance at Controversial Crypto Ball Event

    Soulja Boy Defends His Performance at Controversial Crypto Ball Event

    Draco admits to mixed feelings but says the offer was too good to pass up

    Soulja Boy is addressing the backlash he received for performing at the Crypto Ball event in Washington D.C. over the weekend, which reportedly honored President-elect Donald Trump. Taking to social media, Soulja explained that the opportunity was too lucrative to turn down, despite his personal feelings about the president.

    “You want me to not answer the phone for the president, this is the president of the m***** f*****g United States. Trump wasn’t even there. It was the Crypto Ball for crypto n**s,” Soulja said, adding that he’s going to do what he wants. “I’m gonna do whatever the f* I want to do. And I’ll go again.”

    In another video, Soulja admitted that he was torn about performing at the event. “I 50/50 ain’t give a f*** though. Halfway, I was like Man, f*** Trump. I don’t f*** with him, and halfway was like it’s the president,” he confessed. “But hey, I needed that bag, man. I ain’t gone lie.”

    Soulja isn’t the only artist facing backlash for supporting Trump; Nelly has also been criticized for performing at the inauguration event.







  • Soulja Boy Calls Out Drake in Latest Livestream Rant

    Soulja Boy Calls Out Drake in Latest Livestream Rant

    The ongoing feud intensifies as Soulja Boy accuses Drake of being a “btch” and mocks his legal battles

    Soulja Boy’s longstanding beef with Drake flared up once again over the weekend, as the rapper ranted about the 6 God on his livestream. The trigger for Soulja’s latest tirade appears to be related to Drake fans’ reactions to Soulja’s performance at Donald Trump’s Crypto Ball. In a fiery clip, Soulja Boy berated Drake, calling him a “btch” and telling him to stay in Canada, claiming, “You can’t even come to America and talk to the president, fck boy.” He added, “Stay in Canada, where your b*tch belongs at.”

    Soulja’s anger didn’t stop there. He went on to ask his followers who they thought won the ongoing Kendrick Lamar and Drake beef, before taking shots at Drake’s recent lawsuit against Universal Music Group. “Ya’ll the type of people that sue people, like Drake,” Soulja said, mocking Drake for filing legal complaints after losing rap battles. “Y’all the type of people that lose a rap battle and sue like Drake.”

    The feud between Soulja Boy and Drake has been simmering for years, with the two frequently taking jabs at each other. In January 2025, Soulja Boy took to X (formerly Twitter) to say, “Time to disappear. PS Drake u went out sad,” as part of a larger critique of global events, including California wildfires. This, however, was far from the first time Soulja Boy expressed his disdain for Drake. In 2019, Soulja Boy famously accused Drake of copying his style, particularly referencing similarities between his 2007 track “What’s Hannenin” and Drake’s “Miss Me.”

    Despite these persistent jabs, Drake has largely remained quiet, not responding directly to Soulja’s provocations. The back-and-forth highlights the tensions that can arise in the music industry, with past collaborations and friendly relationships often evolving into public disputes.







  • Stephen A. Smith Defends Snoop Dogg, Nelly, and Soulja Boy for Performing at Pro-Trump Events

    Stephen A. Smith Defends Snoop Dogg, Nelly, and Soulja Boy for Performing at Pro-Trump Events

    The ESPN Host Rips Critics, Highlights Impact of Hip Hop’s Political Engagement

    Stephen A. Smith has defended Snoop Dogg, Nelly, and Soulja Boy after the Hip-Hop community reacted negatively to their performances at pro-Donald Trump events. The rappers and Rick Ross were booked for various inauguration celebrations in Washington, D.C., sparking controversy among fans and fellow artists.

    On his podcast, Smith fiercely responded to their critics, questioning why the rappers shouldn’t have the right to make money in their way. “Soulja Boy ain’t got no right to make some money?” Smith said, pointing out the rapper’s significant earnings from the event. He also highlighted Snoop Dogg’s impact, emphasizing his charitable contributions, including funding a youth football league and helping send players to college and the NFL.

    Smith also defended Nelly’s stance, stating that the rapper is simply performing for those who respect the office and pay the right fee without engaging in political matters. He also criticized the way some people turned against Ice Cube for his political affiliations, reminding listeners of the significant role Hip-Hop has played in changing the lives of countless Black people.

    The defense comes as Snoop Dogg faces ongoing scrutiny for his previous opposition to Trump, though his views have softened in recent years, especially after Trump pardoned a Death Row Records co-founder in 2021.





  • Snoop Dogg, Rick Ross, and Soulja Boy Attend Trump’s First-Ever Crypto Ball

    Snoop Dogg, Rick Ross, and Soulja Boy Attend Trump’s First-Ever Crypto Ball

    Unlikely guests at pro-Trump event, including Snoop, surprise fans with appearances

    Snoop Dogg, Rick Ross, and Soulja Boy were among the high-profile guests at the first-ever Crypto Ball, a star-studded party held to welcome the incoming administration of Donald Trump. The event took place on January 17 at the Andrew W. Mellon Auditorium in Washington, D.C., and was hosted by David Sacks, the Silicon Valley investor appointed by Trump as the “White House A.I. and Crypto Czar” last month.

    The exclusive party, which cost attendees between $2,500 and $5,000, was media-free, but footage from the event surfaced showing Snoop Dogg proudly declaring, “They let a real Crip up in the Crypto Ball.” His attendance at a pro-Trump event raised eyebrows, especially given his strong criticism of artists who performed for Trump during his first inauguration in 2017.

    Snoop’s shift in stance toward Trump occurred after the former president commuted the prison sentence of Death Row Records co-founder Michael “Harry-O” Harris in his final days in office. Snoop, who played a role in advocating for Harris’ release, expressed gratitude for Trump’s decision, signaling a more conciliatory relationship between the two.

    Other artists, including Nelly, Rod Wave, Kodak Black, and Fivio Foreign, are also reportedly set to attend Trump-themed events surrounding the inauguration.

  • Plies’ Lawyer Refutes Allegations That Lawsuit Is Targeting Black Women

    Plies’ Lawyer Refutes Allegations That Lawsuit Is Targeting Black Women

    Plies’ lawyer denies lawsuit targets Black women

    On November 6, Plies will file a lawsuit against some of the biggest names in the industry for allegedly sampling his songs without permission. Names like Megan Thee Stallion, GloRilla, and Soulja Boy are mentioned in the copyright infringement lawsuit.

    However, most of the attention focused on Megan and GloRilla whose fans have taken to Instagram comment sections to shade Plies for what they deem possible attacks against Black women.

    The backlash has been so fierce that one of his lawyers, Aaron J. Thornton, found himself having to release a statement. According to him, though, Plies does not have any personal anger towards Megan, GloRilla or even any other parties involved in this lawsuit but is only seeking out compensation from these labels due to what he feels is improper procedure.

    “This lawsuit isn’t a strategically timed attack against Black women,” Thornton stated. “Plies has said a lot of meaningful and important things in support of Black women.”

    Plies accuses the three rappers of stealing one of his hits instrumentals

    Plies has initiated legal action against GloRilla, Megan Thee Stallion, and Cardi B, alleging that they infringed his beat for their hit song “Wanna Be”.

    Per TMZ, the Florida rapper accuses the three female artists of biting the beat from his 2008 song “Me & My Goons,” which he says Soulja Boy first stole in his 2010 hit “Pretty Boy Swag”.

    The core of the conflict is one particular element which Plies refers to as an “infrared countdown beat.”

    The suit lists as additional defendants Megan’s Hot Girl Productions, as well as Collipark Productions, Universal Music Group, Yo Gotti’s Collective Music Group, and Interscope Records.

    Soulja Boy weighs in on Method Man refusing to perform on Hot 97’s Summer Jam again

    Soulja says Meth has a right to react how he wants

    Method Man recently admitted that the crowd at Hot 97’s Summer Jam where he performed was simply not his type, thanks to generational gap. The Wu-Tang Clan rapper revealed that he won’t perform at the festival again.

    Soulja Boy recently caught up with TMZ where he was asked about his take on the situation, and the rapper was okay with Meth’s reaction. “I don’t think he mean that. He probably just in his feelings,” he explained. “He probably gon’ perform at a future event, you know what I’m saying? But shout out to him. People got different … I don’t know. That’s New York, though. Everybody supposed to know who he is.

    “It don’t matter. That’s crazy. I didn’t know that. There probably was a lot of young people in the audience. Shout out to him. He’s definitely a legend, for sure. He entitled to respond however he feel like. It’s gon’ be all good.”

  • Metro Boomin catches heat from his sister for not responding to Soulja Boy after he dissed their mom

    Metro Boomin catches heat from his sister for not responding to Soulja Boy after he dissed their mom

    Metro’s sister is mad at him for not addressing Big Draco

    Metro Boomin had found himself at odds with Soulja Boy last month after the former’s old tweet of him dissing the latter resurfaced. In response, Soulja went on a rampage on X and disrespected Metro’s mother who was killed in a murder-suicide incident in 2022. The super-producer didn’t respond to the “Make It Clap” rapper but was busy clashing with Drake at the time.

    Apparently, Metro’s sister Leslie wasn’t happy with his brother’s lack of reaction to Big Draco and she recently took to social media to flame him for that.

    “This n-gga Drake said, ‘Shut the fuck up and make some drums,’ right? This n-gga get so out of his body and bothered by what he said, he go above and beyond to respond with a song,” she said in a clip posted on her Instagram stories. “This n-gga Soulja Boy say he sacrificed our mom and and what he say? Not a muthafucking thing. He went quiet.”

    She continued, “This n-gga didn’t say nothing […] but you get outta your body when a n-gga call you a ho and tell you to make some drums? That shit bothers you. But when a n-gga speaking on your momma, your bitch ass don’t say shit. And I’m the crazy one? Yeah, okay.”
