Soulja Boy

Anyone else suprised he's still around? He's actually made a career off being a supposed 1 hit wonder. I've never minded him personally, never listened to his music but I can appreciate it for what it is: just entertainment. I also liked that he acknowledged his dance music isn't true hip hop. Mean Mug was good, it was a banger and 50 killed it. I think he can build a respectable career if he makes more tracks like that. I think his lyrics will evolve, I've seen a couple of his interviews and he is actually a pretty smart guy. I think if he ever wants to be taken as a serious rapper, he needs to change his name. I think he should go by his real name, DeAndre Way. It's already a "strong" sounding and marketable name.

Not the "best in the game", but I've heard worse:

i like most of his new album DeAndre Way so imo he's improved a lot of the last few years
and with Lil B on his label now, he's gonna be relevant for a while

No I'm not surprised by it, BackStreet Boys sold millions of records for years on end. Still 'being around' doesn't make you good, it just means you're... Still around lmao.

Once you establish ANY sort of base, if you keep putting shit out you'll likely 'stay around' anyway so it doesn't mean anything.

He's a gimmick and he's still making gimmick music. I'm not surprised by any of it, I'd be surprised if he came out with the next Illmatic. But he's still making shouty / drony / dumb-fuck toy rap songs about Swag and chains over toy beats. Pretty much what I'd expect.

haha I feel like most, if not all of these posts are sarcastic. But nah, he goes in on some tracks. I'll never listen to him regularly or buy his stuff, but I can stand him.

honestly though, Lil B outshines him on pretty much every track i've heard from the duo but the final product is still swagged out to death

Cause the shit I hear is crazy
But your either getting lazy or you don't believe in you no more
Seems like your own opinions, not one you can form
Cant make a decision you keep questioning yourself
Second guessing and its almost like your begging for my help

Came back to annihilate, the game's in dire straights, as I await
Word on Satan, as I drop, fall to my knees before this Quija board and I pray
Now I lay me down to sleep
I do this shit in my sleep, I’m sleepin' now, imagine if I awake
