Kanye West Defends Soulja Boy: He’s on Nas Level Sh-t
Oh, the whole Ice-T vs. Soulja Boy nonsense; I really wanted to ignore it. Ice-T calls Soulja Boy out for being wack; Soulja Boy calls Ice-T Grandpa and to shut up. Yeah, that’s a deep conversation. Well, Kanye West jumped in the middle of it. He defended Soulja Boy on his blog, essentially saying, Soulja Boy is as gifted as Nas.
Kanye Speaks..
“Soulja boy is fresh as 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.”
Whenever I see my nieces and nephews (13 years old and younger) they love that Southern, dance, craze rap. Honestly it’s much better having them reciting nigga this/bitch that lyrics.
Soulja Boy makes music for the younger set (even if ‘Supaman.. ‘ did have a hidden meaning.)
On the other hand, Kanye comparing Soulja Boy to Nas, is taking it off the cliff. Not today, yesterday, or in 58 years can that kid come up with a single song with Nas level lyrics. Soulja Boy makes up a new saying or word, repeats it thirty times, says something unintellible, and it’s back to the chorus. Yeah, he’s terrible - but for his fans, that’s entertainment. Let them have their fun.
By the way, can anyone find Joe Ski Love? Tell him The Pee Wee Herman needs to make a comeback. << Ha, that's a better/fairer comparison than Nas.
Joe Ski Love - “Pee Wee’s Dance”
Nas is gonna be all in Kanye’s ear when he sees him.
Kanye is trippin. Soulja boy is whack, and to compare him to Nas is well..blasphemy. I love Kanyeezee, but like much of his behavior, I can’t back him up on this one.
Kanye is trippin’ Soulja Boy is t just that. He is a boy in a mans game. I am starting to turn the other way when Kanye opens his mouth. He compared Soulja Boy to Nas, What is he doing trying to start a beef. Nas should be pissed at being compared to Soulja Boy. Why didn’t Kanye campare Soulja Boy to himself? Since he thinks that Superman that ho ain’t wack.
Just when I was going to give that whining Kanye West some credit he comes out with this shit. Now his credibility is shot. Think before you speak Kanye. Soulja boy sucks. How can this kid tell Ice-T to shut up. Ice-T is one of the fathers of this game and Soulja Boy isn’t even a rapper. Wow Kanye, what were you thinking when you opened your mouth on this one or were you even thinking?
What the fuck was Kanye thinking when he compared that little nigga Soulja Boy to a legend like Nas?
I ain’t mad at Ice-T when he said his shit was wack. Yo Soulja Boy this comes from the movie “8 Mile” “Go home/write some shit/make it suspenseful/and don’t come back until something dope hits you”. Niggas do take time to go to the studio and write bomb shit. Soulja Boy is definitely wack as a muthafucka. He will never be qualified as a hip-hop artist.
I know what Kanye was thinking. He was thinking what can I say that is so stupid that I can get people to respond to it? Answer Soulja Boy is on Nas’ level. Well that was some cracked out, smoked out, coked out statement. Now how will anyone take him seriously when he says “Bush don’t like black people”? Kanye sometimes you should THINK before you open your mouth. That statement harmed your credibility in the rap game.
I see what Kanye is saying.He’s saying that Soulja Boys is bringing new flavor to the music world.But just because it’s new it doesn’t nessescarily means everybody has to like it.Ice-T has his own swag,Soujla Boy has his own swag Kanye West has his own sawg.It all depends what you’re into.I could care less if it’s a snap song.gangsta song,or Electronic song everybody does their own thing.That’s what makes music so ear open interesting.
But when you suck you suck and Soulja Boy sucks.
I’m african and I dont know why african american are not appreciating themselves. But the little boy needs show some respect to big ones.
kanye this is the same little boy that made a song called shake that booty meat..and that shit sounds just like shake that laffy taffy!!!
First of All I will like to adress that Soulja Boy is definatly not the New Nas. Obviously Kanye West has lost the idea of what real hiphop is. Or just maybe don’t respect the hardcore hiphop fans. How the hell can you compare A boy who just make dancing songs which is mainly for that south shit, to a man from QB thats biblical,lyrical, merical on the mic and actually in ice t’s words “Bleeds over a track”. When Nas first came out with his demo tape he was already the hottest shit and crowned king of NY when Illmatic Droped. How the hell can you compare that to soulja boy. Listen to Nas’s lyrics Kanye and then listen to soulja boy’s lyrics if you can. The shit is garbage and makes no sense. Really if it wasnt for the beat people would have never followed it or bumped it. Someone like Nas can have you think out of this planet even if the beat is garbage. so you really gotta watch what you say Kanye and think twice before comparing yourself to Nas. As for a Nas the 2nd, hmmm, that will happen soon but that man will be someone who can make a big impact as soon as he hits the buisness. And by impact I mean he takes people minds into another zone with his lyrics and can spit the life of his dreams. Yes..It has to be deep like that. And also before I forget, I know everyone saw the BET awards last night and both Kanye & The overhyped rapper Lil Wayne took shots at nas when they said “HipHop is not Dead!” Kanye first said it when he recieved his award and continued to look throught the crowd like he awaiting for maybe Nas to step up. Wayne made the comment in a different way in the end of his performance when he stated “HipHop is alive I got it”. Think about this now people. How can Lil Wayne hold hiphop? A person from the southside holding onto something that was made in the mecca New York. All lil wayne ever talks about is drugs,money,and the ladies. Someone like Nas,canibus, & Rakim also Jay-Z tells stories in their rhymes, and make people inmajine things. They bring out the struggle through their verbs, through their album titles, they make emotions alive. And I honestly believe that their is too much love songs and hiphop is supposed to be a gangsta’s thing. Make the songs for the females every once in a while but not everydam time. “This song is for the ladies right here!” Shut the hell up and be f’n real wit it! Foril now, hiphop is dyin because of it and some of these artists are too blind or afraid to see it. I say if you love hiphop, you should know who really is the greatest rapper alive and who deserves to be king. And think..With lil wayne developing this nonesense, what would 2pac have done with him. Think about that now. And also 1 more thing, to the mothers and fathers of those children who listen to lil wayne. Pay attention to your children because lil wayne is out their convincing young people to, Do drugs, telling girls to lick “lollipops”, have sex at an early age, and just run wild. THeir is no positive influence, And LiL wayne if you dissagree with me, then reach out to the children, tell them what you’re really about because I may be wrong. I just may be wrong about you and maybe your music is just for adults. But You Have To Make That Statement clear. But as far as that goes, HipHop is dead, Anyone who dissagree’s get at me and we will handle this lyrically. Im the teen that do not put up wit bullshit, I’aint dancin for nobody. Im plain verbal assasin from Queens. s get at me anyone if you have any problems, I have a uncle Joe Bogard who spits his shit too, and you know. We’ll battle to see who deserves to stay in hiphop. Get your fans that loves to dance and I get my hardcore hiphop fanse, that listens to lyrics. Anyway I’m out, hit me up if anything it aint hard to find me. Oh and 5o cent is right, Fat Joe your shit is garbage
1 Luv!
Fuck anybody who likes Soulja Boy
this nigga is crazi.. nas is street shit.. nas is the shit.. not in 1000, not even if soulja boy reads 1000 books about hip hop.. soulja boy aint never gonna b in nas level.. never that
Idk if i agree with everything Kanye said but i do agree with most of it. I think what he mean’t by saying that SB was on Nas’ level is that both of those two people came from nothing but were able to completely change this big industry that we call “hip hop.” I think that Ice-T was dead wrong for calling SB out in the first place. Even if SB was the same age as ICE-T, he owes him the respect of not dissing him in public. He deserved every comeback that SB dished out to him for that “petty” nonesense. It’s just music, if SB wants to make people dance with his catchy beats n lyrics...then hey, let him do it. He’s just having fun and being entertaining..thats what music is...a part of the ENTERTAINMENT business. Ive never seen Ice-T make a whole stadium and football team dance to one of his songs...have you?
Nas helped change the business Soulja Boy didn’t chang a damn thing. What Ice-T is saying that the shit that Soulja Boy is putting out is a disgrace to the rap game which is very true. Soulja Boy ain’t making nobody dance it the beat that makes em dance. Soulja Boy is pure wackiness that is living off the beat of that superman shit. Kanye was dead wrong and Nas should be offended by the comparison to that teeny bopper. Soulja Boy sucks. Thats it!!!
Hip hop changes, if it was the same then we would get bored and start listening to country. New music is good too because it brings something that has never been done. Soulja Boy is creative being who will evolve into something new.
Hip-hop does change but if this is the change that is coming then hip-hop is dead. If he is going to evolve into something new he needs to go in a new direction because rap ain’t his thing.
kanye your an asshole for comparing him to Nas of all people. EAT A DICK!
she got a donk really? You wack!!
True rap does change just like everything else but that doesn’t mean it has to turn corny. Soulja Boy is not the answer for change in rap. He is a person that got lucky with a hook but if the people like it keep doing it bro.
How tha fuck is Kanye gon’ defend this little nigga when he said he hotter than Kanye in a fuckin interview. Get tha fuck outta here wit that bullshit.
Man Kanye bitches and wines so much that even he sometimes don’t even know what he is saying. That’s how come he defended that nigga.
Aight lets do this like this: how many of ya’ll who is commentin dis shit can say u made it into da game? How many of you can say you’ve had a #1 single for more than 7 consecutive weeks? Let me start by sayin first off i’m a rapper myself (ya’ll will no wen i make in the game i’ll make big noise), i’m a proud african anerican, an i’ve listened to the song, album, ect. I aint tryin to say soulja boy aint wack, cause his lyrics is, but wat Kanye is tryin to say is the nigga is out dere doin wat he no how to do the best he can do. He know how to make a beat an a hook that people like to move to, an wen i talk to most people, they say dey do prefer to dance an party more than, u no, listen to depressing songs about the street an how life was hard. Soulja Boy did come out of the hood, an did all he could to help move his family out of it an help provide for his moms. I can respect that shit. Although Kanye comparin him to Nas is a lil cracked out for obvious reason, most of wat he said was true. Plus, wat place does a man like in his 50s have to tell a 17 year old to “eat a dick”? Is dats wats hot in the hood these days, tellin youngn’s to go eat a dick? Y is it dat every nigga who get into fame an get to a certain point start gettin hated on by like every Black Person in the world? We shuldn’t be tearin eachotha down, we shuld be buildin eachotha up, helpin eachotha, supportin eachotha, ect. We’re bout to have our first black president but how can we really support him wen we can’t even support the lil guys like Soulja Boy? I mean is this how far we’ve come since back in the day? Come on, we’re better than this, real talk. We really need to stop all dis damn hatin cuz den da racist people are gonna eat it up an use it against us. An to soulja boy, niggga just keep doin wat u doin an dont even pay dis shit any mind. And its really fuckin funny wen me, a 14 year old nigga gotta be the voice of reason. Sleep on that. Real Talk
Hey 14 year old, you must be a rapper with that ghetto ass post you sound like the typical uneducated rapper. Your dumb ass is not the voice of reason Soulja Boy sucks and for Kanye West to say anything positive about him shows me that he is not to be taken seriously about anything he whines and cries about.
Man stfu uneducated my black ass man i aint never gotten nothing below an A on the yearly standardized test for my state and i’m one of the smartest 14 year olds in my state so yeah i know exactly what i’m talking about cut the nigga some slack cause frankly unless your doing something with your life that somehow involves that then you don’t need to say shit about it
Fuck Soulja Boy
Eat A Dick
This Nigga Single Handly killed Hip-Hop.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
LOL
That shit so funny and true.
soulja boy is cool, and so is nas and kanye it’s music, get wit it or get lost. everything has already been rapped about. how much can there be to tlka about, so hell people chane the subject sometimes. everybody doesnt have to a killer, pothead or drug dealer to make a song about the way they feel. maybe if more people made songs about the ways they feel hiphop wont die.
Nas and Kanye are cool. Soulja Girl sucks. He is going to go down with Vanilla Ice and that guy that made the song bust the move as one of the sorriest so-called rappers of all time. I can’t believe in this day and time that you can get away with making the type of shit that he makes and call it rap.
Wow Kanye, you just lost your hip-hop card when it comes to me. Soulja boy IS wack. That “super man that ho” shit with that dumb dance is wack and for you to defend that shit is just as wack. He got away with something corny and once again the naive people fell for it but don’t defend that shit. I thought you were better then that.
