Soulja Boy (Yep, That Soulja Boy) Claims To Have Closed A Deal That Made Him 400 Million Dollars.......But Nobody Knows What The Deal Is For

HHDX- Soulja Boy claims that he closed a $400 million dollar deal and took to social media to share the news with his followers. “$400 million deal confirmed,” the 25-year old rapper tweeted on Saturday (April 30). “I still they think they low balled me though. I was thinking 2 or 3 billion..” Soulja doesn’t specify what the deal is for nor what it entails, just that he’s grateful. The Atlanta rapper became a commercial success after releasing “Crank That (Soulja Boy)” at the age of 17 in 2007 and three years later landed on the 2010 Forbes’ list of Hip Hop Cash Kings for generating over $7 million dollars for that year. Soulja Boy has reportedly made millions of dollars from ringtone sales alone and likely still receives publishing royalties from “Crank That (Soulja Boy)” and his other Billboard hits as evidenced by Beyonce’s use of the rapper’s lyrics from his 2008 song “Turn My Swag On,” on her Lemonade cut “Hold Up.” “From being worth 25 million at 25 to being offered 400million and closing out the deal?” he captioned on Instagram. “Just think about where I came from no man seriously!”

What a peculiar story that came straight outta left field. Listen, I’m not gonna sit here and say Soulja Boy is lying about closing a 400 million dollar deal. There’s a chance he did and he’s now super duper rich. It’s possible in the sense that anything is possible. It’s just weird to make an announcement like that but then not say who the deal is with or what it’s even for. That’s strange. Right now all I can picture is Soulja Boy got one of those e-mails that say, “Hey you won 400 million dollars! All you have to do is give us your credit card number, bank account routing number and social security number and the money is yours! Congratulations!” and he took it literally. I hope I’m wrong. I hope the guy who wrote the smash hit “Crank That” just closed a 400 million dollar deal. That would be great. I just want to know what it’s for because right now it feels like a scam. Also, I feel like a deal of that dollar amount doesn’t get done without some leaks as to what it actually is. You’re telling me a deal worth almost half a billion was made and nobody is talking about it? That might be the least believable part of the whole thing. I am waiting with bated breath to see what this is all about.
