Soulja Boy Speaks On Not Winning BET’s New Artist Award


Does the man have a point? He did have way more sales and exposure than, “The Dream.” I’m a fan of, “The Dream,” but clearly Soulja Boy had that category.

    Artist – 1. A person who creates art.
    2. A person who is skilled at some activity

    You cant honestly say SB fills any of those requirements. When you get anything close to Dream’s resume then you can get some type of respect.

  2. 2cents Says:

    Speculation: Dream won due to his total talent being recognized at this point not jus his “artistry”! He had the Umbrella song, and Bed, plus his singles and album…

    Neither are that talented to me but hey… Don’t be mad soulja boy… make a cartoon or diss him on youtube…lmao!

    F that make a dance up on that sh!t…lmmfao!

    rhianna 4 mill and umbrella # 1 in 27 country’s he wrote it
    j.holiday bed and suffocate…his album went gold
    mary j bilige im fine and shake down w/usher 2 mill
    usher trading places..1 mill sold
    chris brown you…2 mill album
    mariah carey touch my body…1.6 mill

    the dream’s songwriting catalog>soulja boys whole ringtone career

    every time somebody sells an album HE(the dream) gets paid because HIS music is still on it(the album).

    the dream>soulja boy

  5. Im Me Says:

  7. s double i Says:

    so he’s sayin no one’s into lyrics anymore. damn, is this what hip-hop is coming to?

  8. No Mas Says:

    Because he had exposure and album sales, that makes him the best? If so, all hail Vanilla Ice.

  9. Nigger.....There I Said It Says:

    Soulja Boy: “Put my stats up against his, he can’t fuck with me”

    Not True

    Umbrella was a bigger hit than Crank That

  10. Jay Gets Busy Says:

    dam good point @ #6

    shit you might as well put MC Hammer up in that category too…

    one thing that Mr. Tell ‘Em fails to realize is that he is a gimmick…and if you look throughout the history of music, especially Hip Hop…GIMMICKS DONT FUCKING LAST!! Prime example…VANILLA ICE AND MC HAMMER.

    I had just an ounce of respect for this dude until he came out his face and said lyrics dont matter…now ur just always going to be WACK!! GO and sell your ringtones lil’ homie…I can bet that in a few years we gonna see you on some VH1 reality show with midgets and former crackheads talking about…”aayyy mane, i wuh hot back den…i sold owl tho rangtones…dis soulja boi tell emm…yoooooooooooou”.

    piece of advice…step ur lyric game up and you’ll probably see an ounce of legitivity!

  11. Sin City Says:

  12. B Says:

  14. C. Franco Says:

    Whoever posted this is probably the only blogger over 18 who gives Soulja Boy any kind of respect.

    I feel like this site (as of lately) has a real bias when it comes to reporting about artists who do exclusives for the site.

  15. Genocide Says:

    The award was for Best New Artist. The keyword being “Best” Not the artist with the most album sales, but the BEST new artist. Soulja Boy fails to see this somehow.

  16. Shawn Says:

    Soulja Boy music caters to the people in his age group this nigga 17 yrs. old he’s not making music for the older crowd. So of course he’s gonna say niggas don’t care about lyrics all the people his age wanna do is listen to some music that they can dance to on teen night in the club.
