Soulja Boy Claims He “Changed The Whole Music Industry”
Soulja Boy deserves his credit. Before anybody else, he used social media to his advantage in the music industry. He utilized it in such a manner that forced people to listen to his music, making him a household name with his viral dance craze.
While he was not able to become a superstar for the long haul, he has stuck around, surviving his initial fifteen minutes of fame and clinging onto relevancy in 2020. That doesn’t mean that he wasn’t instrumental in ushering in a new era for artists though.
Not one to allow his name to be dragged through the mud, Soulja Boy logged onto Twitter this morning and demanded his respect, claiming that he shifted the entire way things work in the music industry.
“I really changed the whole music industry. That’s crazy,” wrote the 30-year-old rapper.
If you really think about what he’s saying, he’s not even wrong. Today, TikTok dominates the way trends are created in music. Much of that is done with corny dance routines that kids will pick up on, like the “Crank Dat” dance. So, really, Soulja Boy was years ahead of his time.
We also shouldn’t count him out for another comeback. A few years ago, he went up against Tyga and claimed to have the more effective comeback. While Tyga has moved past the point of a “comeback”, filling a niche with his ass-centric rhymes, Soulja is still waiting to reach that status. Do you think he can ever get there?

Jennifer Lopez was caught in a dramatic showdown with paparazzi during a recent Hamptons getaway with her children. The star’s frustration was palpable as she demanded photographers leave her and her kids alone, shouting, “Get away from me and the kids! Go away!”
The intense moment was shared by The Neighborhood Talk on Instagram, where Lopez’s fans quickly rallied to her defense. One commenter noted, “Y’all clearly hear her say ‘get away from me and the kids’… she’s just protecting her children.” Another added, “The internet’s been so harsh on her lately. Give her a break. This new generation is just weird.”
The incident followed a heartwarming Instagram post by Lopez featuring a sweet photo of her and her twins, Max and Emme, captioned, “My whole heart.” While Lopez was enjoying the East Coast, her husband, Ben Affleck, remained in Los Angeles. Meanwhile, Affleck’s daughter, Violet, recently visited Lopez on the East Coast.
In related news, Lopez has canceled her This Is Me… Live tour, which was set to include 30 summer shows. The cancellation, rumored to be due to sluggish ticket sales, was framed by Lopez as a need to focus on family. She assured fans, “I promise I will make it up to you and we will all be together again. I love you all so much. Until next time.”
