Ice-T Responds To Soulja Boy (Kanye Takes Soulja Boy’s Side)


How is Soulja Boy going against the whole West Coast when he got dissed first?

Soulja Boy’s response to Ice-T saying he killed Hip Hop
Ice T Says Soulja Boy Killed Hip Hop

Kanye’s opinion on the beef is below…

Soulja boy is fresh ass 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.

Soulja Boy music is wack, yes but Ice-T was wrong for the way he went at him. If all you wanted to say is Soulja boys music is garbage, then say “Soulja boy’s music is garbage in my opinion”. Don’t insult the kid.

Besides, I’m not entirely sure Soulja Boy’s audience is 50year old men.

LMAO at the end…

All you clowns stickin up for soulja boy are retarded. He’s been in it for a such a short time tryin to go at someone in the game for MUCH longer. HE can’t win.

I can’t stand soulja boys music and I’m no huge Ice fan either but I got nothin but repsect for someone with his influence and contribution to music.

And like Ice said soulja should respect his elders and he’s only 17 and probably hasn’t had a fractoin of the experience that ice had.

Fuck souja boy

breakdown wrote on June 21st, 2008 at 11:59 pm

Ok. Let me break this whole shit down right quick.

1. Don’t be fooled. This is great almost-viral advertising for Ice-T and Soulja Boy for two reasons. First, Ice-T is using SB’s popularity to boost his visibility. Second, this “beeflet” will keep sb’s career going longer, because now all of his young fans will rock his shit even harder. This strengthens SB’s brand by making him seem more rebellious and irreverent, and Ice’s by making him more visible (he has enough cred).

2. If this IS real, it’s really stupid. All of it. We all know that SB’s music is a gimmick. We all know Ice is an OG. Great. But, SB’s brand is huge with kids, who can’t appreciate the old school, or anything more complex than candy. Soldier Boy is the spongebob of hip hop, but whoever made spongebob is PAID.

3. Garbage sells. White kids LOVE soldier boy. Why? It’s perfectly packaged blackness. It’s like you get a hood party in your whitebread suburban house everytime you put it on. AND their parents hate it. If they knew what he was saying, they’d hate it more, and the kids would rock it more. As far as a product, SB is genius. His shit is perfectly targeted to the MTV audience. And that’s what is is A PRODUCT. All the motherfuckin record execs LOVE IT. I wouldn’t be surprised if they designed it themselves. Don’t believe me?

WATCH THIS. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/cool/

They research these kids. They go to their houses and STUDY these kids. THEY GO THRU THEIR CLOTHES. They know them better than they know themselves. SB didn’t just pop up on the top 40 by himself. he was PUT there by somebody, just like everyone else on music video tv. Because of that, Ice-T has got to know that SB isn’t the only person in that studio. That’s why this is all either STAGED MARKETING or FOOLISHNESS.

Neither one of these niggas is makin my Ipod, and neither will any of the freestyles that they make about this new “beef” they have created. This shit is really ridiculous, yet entertaining. I say Soulja Boy and yo son jus scrap and get it over wit lmfao.

WHITE BREAD TASTE GOOD WITH WHITE MEAT........CHICAGO wrote on June 22nd, 2008 at 3:26 am

People now and days don’t know what hiphop really mean beside the person who created and came up with the name. If people really knew what hiphop really meant then artists like soulja boy wouldn’t be consider as a hiphop artist. It get to a curtin point where all of you fans who make comment and talk that real shit about knowing what hiphop really means don’t know shit. Because all it is is your honest opinion about knowing what hiphop is. And at this point nobody knows what hiphop is everybody has there own opinion to what hiphop means. But non of there opinion are true and non of there opinion doesn’t really matter. At this point in time if the word hiphop is not in the dictionary then it has know definition know matter how right anybody definition is to what hiphop means it would still wrong.

Nobody shouldn’t give there define of what hiphop means cuz if people really knew what hiphop really meant. Then everybody would have the same define of what hiphop really means and they wouldn’t put soulja boy under hiphop. Because all that bullshit that soulja boy rap about including his character is the totel oposite of what hiphop is. And it sucks because fans are actually buying into what soulja boy is doing and calling it hiphop. It like there pokin fun at hiphop knowing good and well all that soulja boy is doing is making look cartoonish and dumb. I mean there nothing new that soulja boy is bringing to hiphop maybe to rap but not hiphop.

Because hiphop take more then that it take more then just crankin day hoe and snapping yo fingers and that what soulja boy is doing. But we has hiphop fans want to see more then entertainment we want to see talent and soulja boy has know talent what so ever. And what make it even worse is that fans are siding with soulja boy. But then they’ll turn around and give there own opinion of what hiphop is. And it be the totel oposite of what soulja boy is not toward hiphop. Then they’ll turn around again and side with soulja boy and say that he’s hiphop.

It like ya’ll are contradicting yourself by saying one thing then turn around and say the totel oposite. I think fans now and day are confused as far as what hiphop really means. All i can say is that hiphop is definetly growing and changing all at the same time. But as far as to judge it by giving my define or to say that it dead would be wrong. As for kanye who’s to say if he’s right or wrong all he’s doing is giving his honest opinion. As for Ice T who’s to say if he’s right or wrong cuz all he’s doing is giving his honest opinion as well. And as for soulja boy well ya’ll can call him whatever ya’ll want but just not hiphop period.

shine95 wrote on June 22nd, 2008 at 3:52 am

From now on, this taught me somethin, the next time I think somebody’s a wack rapper or mc or whatever, I’m a just say this is wack industry, because they are solely the ones to blame why you got something that is considered wack in hiphop standards. can’t front though, Kanye got a good point. he shined the light on that Nas silent murder shit. fuckin true. the evolution of this music was based on wack and dope and what was excepted later. they used to dis NWA and Ice T for all the negative shit they was spittin but it was too real to not accept. maybe with soulja boy, hey the “superman” is like the humpty dance in the 90’s and they ain’t dis Digital Underground(2 Pac’s old group). I know what the realness on this shit is, fuck singles let’s get back to dope albums. Let soulja boy have the superman song but have track 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12, on some other topics besides dancing all the time. but it’s tough to school that to a 17 year old.This hip hop shit is a tough act to follow. that’s why it’s still hard to this day to try to match Nas and Jay-Z’s careers with knowing on how to make a real hip hop album that sells at the same time.

Just Ice wrote on June 22nd, 2008 at 3:59 am

corny. I’ve been a fan of Ice T for a long time but Soulja Boy still wins this one. Ice is dead wrong talking about how Soulja Boy should have taken the diss and not responded - when in hip hop would any artist let that slide? Not in Ice T’s day back in the 80s that’s for sure. That’s like saying Ice T should have shut the fuck up when LL Cool J dissed him.

lol @ Digital Underground being 2pacs old group… he was a memeber added the group existed 1st but your point is understood and I agree (for the most part)… IMO Its the commercial aspect of the music thats jacked up! There’s a million and 2 dudes tryin to get on their’s gotta be a few hot one’s ( like Joell Ortiz imo) but between hatin to make yourself feel greater and the industry streamlining what styles get to see the light of day its all messed up!

Soulja Boy has a point too. Alot of people would kill to be in his position.

But Ice T is a legend. He can say whatever the fuck he wants. Soulja Boy has the right to reply too.

But real talk he is garbage its about time someone said it we have the chicken noodle soup, laffy taffy & Crack dat how piece of garbage. Age shouldn’t matter how old was Nas, Prodigy when they came up ? Ice-T is right what he said but wrong for how he said but Soulja Boy should of took the L for that Ice-T has connections. Ice-T is right with his opinion thats whats wrong with Hip Hop you have to come with a bullshit ass dance and people like that garbage, Ice-T is true nobody cares about lyrics anymore and thats a shame.

Only people who like wack music is sticking up for Soulja Boy.

he (ice t) is looking like a hater right now, he can not like soulja boy without telling the world. what did he expect for soulja boy to agree wit him, or not defend his brand that is making him a star.
if lil wayne could evolve into a decent rapper so can soulja boy, cuz that what wayne used to look like to me.

if u dont like somebody music thats fine, but the problems in hiphop was around wayyyyy b4 soulja boy.

Da answer is Nothing.
i aint no Soulja boy stan but i dont believe he killed hip-hop. He jus brought something fresh and new to the hip hop scene if u didnt like it, u didnt have to sing it or learn da dance steps. Also for Ice-T to put such a blame on Soulja Boy is jus absolutely stupid and demeaning.
I dnt think hip hop is dead either its jus new and different to what people were used to dts all it is.

Appreciate the old but dont put down da new.

Everybodys right..Hip Hop is suppose to be a lifestyle and points from a black perspective that takes on many forms.
Kanye is right and wrong. He know he can sell alot of records but when he came to NY Summer Jam niccas booed him.
No matter who u are 50, Jay Z, Wayne, Kanye its different because people will reject you while others will except u.

How is that wrong? Dance songs have been around since the beginning of Hip Hop (i.e. Pee-Wee Herman Dance, The Wop, The Humpty Dance, etc.) so what the fuck is Ice-T gettin all bent out of shape about???????

@ 28

Sit yo punk ass down. Soulja boy is hip hop. His dance in 07 isn’t any more cartoonish or dumb then the type of shit they was doing back in the 80’s. His style dressing like a retard, again, is no worst then back in the 80’s. Hip hop didn’t start being fly (clothing wise) until Run-Dmc. As for his lyrics, he rappin about dancin, grades, girls, and getting haters out of his face. He rapping about what he knows just like everybody else. He is hip hop and what he is doing is no different then the first niggas to do this hip hop shit.

Lyrically Soulja boy ain’t no worst then “The hip the hop the hip the hippdy to the hip hip hop you don’t stop a rockin”….

for real?? wrote on June 22nd, 2008 at 9:40 am

listen the problem arises when we as fans allow certain words to be misused… for example, anybody can rap/ be a rapper. You put words together that rhyme and bam your golden. Not everyone can be an emcee. KRS-1 reminded us in that CLASSIC joint w/ Nas and them… that emcee-ing uplifts &/or educates the people. (BTW, What NWA and them did was educate the people b/c i ain’t had a clue what the west coast gang scene was like til them dudes came out). Tell us a story through your rhymes (and not how to stick a blanket to some biddy’s back) and there is a place for that kind of skill b/c Too $hort was nasty as hell but still lyrically dominates Soulja Boy.

therefore there is a difference b/t Hip-Hop and Rap. We need to stop calling everything that rhymes Hip-Hop. Rap is an art form but Hip Hop is a culture. IE- Yes Japanese people are Asian but they’re not Chinese… see the difference… No Soulja Boy should not be compared to Nas. He just a marketing ploy. That was good enough for him to move his mama out the hood. will he but good enough to keep her out the hood. step your game up. Every generation has whack acts. time tells if they can stick around. Strip away the music and you can’t recite that ish like it’s poetry.

Glad lil’ dude can eat but since when is it wrong for someone to call someone else whack. now Ice T shouldn’t have told him to eat a d!ck. But is everything considered hating? Y’all need to look up what HATING actually is cuz u got that ish wrong too. Ice T was right.. this new generation of fans w/ money really don’t give a F*ck abt lyrics, skill, and hard work. BRING BACK THE LYRICS please!!!!!!

Callin whack niggas whack is Hip Hop…oh what?..an artist can rap about some anonymous dude being whack, but when they name names it’s hating?…Thats why rap is so soft now, cus niggas is too scared a politically correct to step up and say “that shit is wack”, like Nas did when he went on the radio that one time. that was Hip hop.

And when you think Soulja Boy think D4L. Just some niggas makin mind numbingly dumb music just to make money…and now where are they?..thats where Soulja Boy is headed if he doesnt step his game up.

And yall keep talking about His age and shit. Someone said “it’s like shaq going to a basketball court and tellin all the 10 yr olds they suck and should stop playin”…are you serious?…No its like Shaq going to some new rookie who is just playing terrible and telling him that he shoulda stayed in college(and to eat a dick)…Why do you think they stopped drafting highschool players?..because when you go to the league its a different ballgame, and these players weren’t developing and therefore weak players makes watching the NBA games boring and therefore it fucks up the nBA for everybody cus they lose money…..Soulja boy is in the league now..so all yall talkin bout “he’s 17, let the nigga get better at it”…shut that shit up, cus it prolly wont happen….yall the same niggas that call Bow Wow wack today…and he is wack cus he aint have the chance to develop into anything good, cus he came to the league early…So yea Soulja boy in the league and he got his money, but he’ll have a terrible carreer

True there is no rulebook 4 hiphop just listen to whatever you like. But in my opinion it’s still not hiphop it seem like people mix hiphop and rap together and get a lil confused. Back then alot of hiphop artist would have never accepted soulja boy’s music. And they sure would have never put it under hiphop. Its just funny how people minds have changed in the last few years. I mean soulja boy is a rapper not a hiphop artist; talking about crankin that hoe is not hiphop. But of course people may say that im wrong for the simple fact that this is a new generation and yes music is changing and growing. But at the same time we still have to understand where hiphop came from. #55 ruff the great’…”If you think soulja boy ain’t hiphop, then you really don’t know what hiphop is”. And you think by saying that you really know what hiphop is? Like i said no one knows what hiphop is know matter what your thoughts are on hiphop.

SB is doing his thing and niggas put him down for no reason. Hiphop is not dead and even if Hiphop was dead it wouldn’t be SB’s fault. That’s one ignorant comment thinking SB killed hiphop. SB is part of hiphop. SB’s music doesn’t have to be exactly what you like but it’s still hiphop. I’m not a fan of SB but I’m not gonna put him down and say it isn’t hiphop only because I’m not into what he’s doing…He’s different and many of the young cats growing up like him a lot and he’s good at what he does.

But we didn’t have the same view when we were shaking and dancing to Humpty Hump, Fresh Prince or whoever else was making music equivalent to Soulja. P.S. ( I know the Prince and Digital Underground made other music eventually or simaltaneously). Anyway what’s wrong with the artists capitalizing off their work instead of record execs.

Just because soulja boy went from being broke to getting out of the hood still doesn’t mean he’s hiphop. And people shouldn’t hide the fact he not hiphop and support him by saying tha he’s hiphop cuz then that make hiphop look bad. It sucks to see that fans are supporting rap music more then hiphop. And it funny when i hear people talking about supporting hiphop. But then ya’ll turn around and support the totel oposite. And then get mad when somebody proves you wrong and instead of you tryin to prove a point ya’ll go on and try to defend yourselve. My whole thing with hiphop is that it been around for over 25 year now. And after 25 year were still tryin to figure out the define of what it means.

#71′Eashia…”At least he not talking about toatin pistol and banging, he just making song for teens”…Yea like that make him more of a hiphop artist.But anyways my question is this if soulja boy is hiphop then what is lupe’ kanye’ commen’ and jay-z? It get to a curtain point where people shouldn’t say to much about what hiphop is. Because what would you say to yourself in the future if you found out that all this time that all your opinion and thought towards hiphop was all wrong…co sign #83 Wayne is trash stfu’…That if soulja boy does put out another record and as far as the dancing go’s. Hiphop dancers back then was meant to dance to multiple hiphop song it was meant to be a worldwide dance. But as far as soulja boy you can’t dance to any other song beside the crank dat spiderman song’ or superman song ‘ and any other soulja boy song. Dances like harlem shake’ chicken head’ and crip walk are meant to be dance to multiple songs being that there worldwide.

But as far as the soulja boy dance it’s not meant to be dance to any other song beside crank that soulja boy. And don’t get me wrong it still a worldwide dance. But you can only dance to it useing only soulja boys music. And with that being said and done i agree with Ice T. I think it time for real hiphop artists to stand up and say something and teach these lil kids what hiphop is.

It funny how kanye said “keep it fresh and original” speak for yourself as much as kanye samples get the fuck outta here. He lost my respect and that was stupide for him to use Nas as if Nas and SB are comparable. And just for the record soulja boy is not the true meaning of what hiphop is suppose to be. Just because he came from the hood and made it doesn’t mean he’s hiphop. And a new sound with a new dance is only for the soulja boy song. Which is also not hiphop all it is is entertainment. Then kanye said “If soulja boy ain’t hiphop then what is” well nobody know but it sure ain’t soulja boy. Then kanye said “Everything soulja boy said had a hidden message” “That Nas leverl shit” WTF. Then he also said “Ain’t know rules to this funkin hiphop shit and that what real hiphop really is”. Yea and that’s your opinion that doesn’t mean it true. It seem like kanye has his shit all wrong he’s reminding me of KRS1. When dude had picked 50 over kanye and said that 50 was more hiphop then kanye which in my opinion is true.

When Kanye said Soulja boy song has double meanings, he is not comparing SB to Nas or suggesting they are of the same skill level. He’s simply illustrating that on a very elementary level SB is demonstrating those attributes of hip hop.

When you are emotionally attached, logic escapes you. The afformentioned guys are Idiots. Oh and White boy, stop jumping on negative opinions to make it seem like you have an opinion on hip hop just to fit in and stop typing up paragraphs in every post you retarded no life havin fuck.

soulja boy on the other hand…came up from nothing to something…the american dream…idc if he did it singing the abc’s, the fact is he did and, and if u knock a nigga hustle your a straight hater…end of story…if he ruined hip hop…go make it better your self, or listen to better artist

TO SUM UP EVERYTHING
no man is big enough to define whats hip hop and whats not…its all what u believe it is…if ice believes it aint hip hop…then its not in his eyes…if soulja boy and kanye believe it is…then it is…in there eyes…but no man is big enough to actually define what is the real definition of hip hop…that goes for all of them and everyone on this site…period

#92 boogz..I really don’t have know clue or a define to what hiphop means. All i know is that it growing and that it changing at the same time. But as far as to what it means i really don’t know. Because at this point everybody has there own opinion of what hiphop mean. And with all of there opinion being different then that means that there only has to be one that is correct or all. But if we can’t find that correct define of what hiphop mean then that either means that there isn’t a define yet or there isn’t one at all. In my opinion towards other people comments on what hiphop is could either be wrong or right.

But at this point in time the way hiphop is being treated i would say that there shouldn’t be a define. I think the art form of hiphop has been ruin to the point where you can’t give it a define. People can call it whatever they want they can also have there own define of what hiphop is but will it matches what hiphop is. I actually think that there should be a dictionary filled with define of what hiphop is but then again maybe there shouldn’t i don’t know. But as far as soulja boy go’s i really don’t think he’s hiphop and that just relativity speakin. But then again i could be wrong and find out later on that soulja boy was actually an hiphop artist. But by what im seeing from soulja boy he like a joke to me. He like the new improved Wierd Al Yankovic of 2008.

But then again i hate to judge so my question would be that if soulja boy is hiphop. Then what is lupe’ kanye’ commen jay-z and nas. Would you compare soulja boy to them and if so then ya’ll might as well just say that rick ross’ shawty lo’ plies’ lil boosie’ lil webby’ and hurricane chris’ are hiphop artist as well. But to me there not cuz there rap artist not hiphop artist. Because what they rap about is not a real message being send but hiphop deal with real messages. See crankin them hoe’s and snaping yo fingers and telling girls to shake there ass is not hiphop that rap period.

And look I’m only 18. I rather listen to 50 years old Ice T than Soulj anyday. And it aint about subject matter.

And like Soulja Boy said, if you really think that the music is f##ked up, then do something.

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.”

They were both wrong for putting it on blast like was. Ice could have contacted sb privately and been like yo yo shit is wack lil homie instead of saying it in public. Anyway, I don’t really consider this beef, this is just a young nigga and a old nigga who have a difference of opinion in what people want to hear. Time will tell.

this is retarded first of all people have their own opinions and yes it was wrong for Ice-T to start all of this and stuff but how it taking sides and bashing each other going to solve anything? i personally don’t like rap and i think its been dead; its really nothing but people who rhyme about something stupid like shoes, sex, running from cops, drugs etc, and talk really fast to a beat, pretty much sending a bad message to younger kids who look up to them. I can’t really call that music and i don’t understand why people like it but they do. Anyways it’s just stupid and i don’t understand why any of this started I’ve seen first graders act more mature!
Oh yeah like telling somebody so suck a dick is going to get them anywhere!

why is it that Soujia boy sucks for trying something new?
he doesn’t want to be like everybody else so he’s “killing” it” even though hip-hop is dead! Ice-T acts like hes freaking god of hip-hop when hes not! Obviously soujia boys making money and all over the radio and people are buying his music! DOESN’T SEEM TOO DEAD TO ME!!! I agree his music is stupid but hes making money people are going to like what they want to like. GET THE FUCK OVER IT!!!!

I want my $22.00 back from Ice-T for the club show he did in Tampa about 6 years ago. I was only trying to get at this female, and the show was garbage!!! Much respect to Ice-T, as he is a legend in the game.

Soldier Boy is the next Tag Team (Whoomp There It Is), Every sports arena in the Country will be playing it at intermission and if the kid was smart, he got a nice chunk of the distribution/publication/marketing funds.

Money is Money, if you getting it clean, who gives a damn about how you got it? Hip-Hop is a life, and from the drums of Ancient African tribes to COP KILLER to CRANK THAT to the Lupes/Waynes/Kanyes it is ever evolving. I can promise you this, in 30 years my grand kids will look at my kids and say “WHAT THE HELL WAS YA’LL LISTENING TO BACK THEN?”, just like my KIDS say to me now about SPLACK PACK/WHODINI/LA TRIM.

My 2 cents out…
