Soulja Boy: Ya Playin' Yourself

Via Dumpin.net

< Does anyone take this guy seriously, other than himself?

We covered GZA's 50-dissing previously but this is new to me. From an interview on the Rhapsody music blog:

On staging a rap duel between him and Wu-Tang Clan’s GZA/Genius, who dissed Soulja Boy on a YouTube video:
I wouldn’t even rap against the Genius. I’d put up someone who was born in ’66 to go against the Genius so it can be a tie. He’s got like 50 years on me. I wouldn’t even associate with the Genius. [In the video] he was looking like I stole his money or something. He’s in Alaska. He’s cold. I just heard 50 Cent talking about the Genius saying he had an Impala his age. Well, that’s the Genius for you. [Laughs.] He has no choice. He got famous for five little minutes, but he had to sacrifice a relationship with Soulja Boy. Now it’s gone. I ain’t gonna be like “F the GZA” ‘cause I ain’t never met that dude. But he says, “F Soulja Boy” ‘cause he needed a buzz. Now he’s back in Alaska.

From an MTV interview:

"I'm Grammy-nominated," he continued, citing his credentials. "If I look at the new list and I compare myself to all 10 of the artists and some don't add up, I'll be like, 'Wow. I should be #1 if it's right now. I'm #1."

Great, he talks in third person too. GZA, you'd be lowering yourself to even respond to this clown.

  3. The thing that everyone seems to be missing is that Gza didn't start up those "Fuck 50" and "Fuck Soulja Boy" chants at hi sshows...the FANS did. Yes, he didn't really do anything to stop the chanting, but he never came right out and dissed - he was provoked. Honestly, though, these interviews are pointless, because all of Soulja Boy's fans have no fucking clue who the Gza is, and if he actually DID, he would decimate this four-year old's career with a multisyllabic flow that everyone would hate on because he "talks too much". There's really no way for Gza to win here, unless 8 Diagrams sells twenty million copies all of a sudden.

  4. That's a good point, Max. I didn't notice that in the videos. But that's why I said he shouldn't further any of this. I am firmly against beef, because no one these days does it right.
    Yeah, GZA is old but he was always was. His whole persona is strongly based around being wise, anyway.
    I think he's the oldest Wu member too, right?

  6. It's so sad the masses believe soulja is even considered to be "anything" in the music industry. For this little boy to not even know who the GZA is statement itself. the lack of respect will be his downfall and I can wait to see it happen. If soulja considers what he's doing is credible, well may God help us all because making real rap records is officially over.
