Soulja Boy’s “remote control” jewelry: Not reinventing the wheel
Posted by Miss Info under concerts , for fashion-hounds and obsessive consumers , hmmm....? , laugh at , sigh.... , ugh , videos[35] Comments
sure, its impressive that nobody in your business team has hipped you to smarter things to spend money on your new black diamond (aka 2009 onyx) chain and matching rings are big and unwieldy. And it’s cool to match your pendant with your real life car…like to remind you of what to look for in the parking lot. But if I may pull your jeweler to the side for a quick convo….
(Hey man, you just took a mini-remote control car from the toy store, stuck a bunch of diamonds on it, put a loop on top and sent Soulja Boy a bill. It doesn’t even hang right on the chain. We see you.)
Soulja Boy talks to Thisis50 backstage at the Jones Beach stop of the Lil’Wayne tour after the jump…

the state of American rap music now is beyond a joke. thank god there are better options for listening to rap/urban music now. 98% of american hip hop died and rotted in to a pungent stank.

I was wondering if Jay’s “all black everything” trend would spread. Seems so. In ten years Soulja Boy will be broke. He doesn’t understand money.

Soulja Boy you need to get some face tatoos going, shit Lil Wayne has them why not you. I wonder how long it will be before we hear about SB being robbed again. The kid is smart and yet dumber than a retard. The two rings weren’t even fresh.

Your talent will get you far but its your character that will get you there. His character will make him fall.

And why the hell not should he not spend ringtone money on diamonds?
I support blowing the bank and set new goals. The reason he’s doing this is because he made his 1st million at age 16 (please not that some people on dead end careers are not going to make that in what’s left of their career, multiply your current annnual salary XYears left before retirement.
Soulja Boy can blow all his money and start a new career at 25, thats not an option for many.
When you got rappers blaming the young dude for being himself now thats a problem, he ain’t stoppin no one from making money, he ain’t setting trends for people to follow and he certainly is not stopping hip-hop from progressing. When you sit and wait for the game to change, your the failure!

This is probably the most dumb shit ever. I love the site and you’re a great writer Miss Info but to come to this site and see the main page loaded with posts of Drake’s “Knee-Gate” Fiasco and now this dumb, jigga-boo shit right here but NO press on the passing of Titus “Baatin” Glover is kinda sad makes me wonder where are the priorities and real interests of so called hip hop fans. Some things deserve a break (like this ignorance) for something a little more serious and heart felt like the passing of the co-founder of a legendary hip hop group. This is your site and I respect that and I respect your work as well. All I ask is for something a little more genuine. Thanks.

well things vary each day. I posted about Baatin on twitter when it happened but havent posted the footage of Slum’s onstage tribute to him over the weekend yet. If that delay is unbearable for you then I apologize and thank you for your past support.

It’s not unbearable; it’s just disappointing as a hip hop fan when this foolishness is constantly associated with the art. As corny as I think this —> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRVqVwGWocM is, the more I see this Soulja Boy bullshit and the “Drake was an idiot and fell on stage like his doctor didn’t warn his ass” shit, the more I agree with Affion Crockett. At the end of the day, it’s your site and I respect your work in general so do you.

Yeah thats wsup, Souljaboy gettin that money, c’mon y’all act like he does not own property and doesn’t have a financial advisor e.t.c. He’s spending a lot of money because he’s gettin a lot of money.
He is not in the same age group as T-Pain (Big AZZ CHain wearin mofo!), he ain’t got baby momma drama like Nas, 50 and Diddy, he ain’t back and forth paying child support or fighting cases so why not? He’s not being arrested for buying guns and drugs so why not?
He could blow the bank and start all over again. The life he’s living he created it, it wasn’t handed to him, let the boy live!!!
The chain is ridiculous but it’s not a gift for y’all it’s his personal choice, my young brothers and nephews like dude so what’s the problem? Soon he’s goin to be making donations at the strip club like uncle J.D and Pacman lol!!!
SouljaboyTellem!!!!

I agree with this comment, he is making money, and he on tour getting mad money. Soulja boy knows how to keep himself in the game, he’s not a one hit wonder. He’s a smart dude, not for buying this chain, but for keeping the money coming in. Thus no matter how much hate he gets, I know a lot of people would like to be in his shoes.

This n*gga got some money, and it’s his choice to do whatever he wants to do with his money, even if it is dumb. I’d rather buy a lot of food though.

I mean, if he goes broke its no sweat off my back. I don’t know, its a good topic for debate but me personally, I don’t feel comfortable telling another man (or woman) what to do with their money. I feel you tho.

Why does it matter what HE spends HIS money on…??? It doesnt matter! If HE wanted to spend all HIS money at the lego store, thats HIS business and HIS money. That aint got nuthn to do with everybody tellin him what he “needs” to do with HIS money! HE worked hard for HIS money, LEAVE THAT BOY ALONE DAMN!
