Eighteen-year-old rapper Soulja Boy recently made some alarming comments when he was interviewed by journalist Toure for BET’s The Black Carpet.
.
Soulja Boy was asked by Toure which historical figure he hates most. And according to Toure’s blog, when Soulja Boy appeared to be caught off guard by the question, Toure threw out some previous answers which included Hitler, Bin Laden, and slave masters.
.
Here is how Soulja Boy then responded to the question, “Oh wait! Hold up! Shout out to the slave masters! Without them we’d still be in Africa. We wouldn’t be here to get this ice and tattoos.”
.
Soulja Boy has been in the media quite often this year due to his feud with Ice T and Lebron James’ Jay-Z/Soulja Boy comments made during last season’s NBA playoff’s.
.
Soulja Boy’s most recent album Souljaboytellem.com was released in October of 2007 and went on to reach the number four spot on the Billboard Top 200.

Im real sick of this pos mfucing so called rapper i think he should talk to anyone he can keep making music oh i mean hooks for people to dance to but please dont let him speak to the public or let him make other waste of video. he should be the new Richard simons for fucking retarted dances and there are people with real talent that are struggling to make it in life and he up there wearing millions in blood diamonds thats what rap has come Dixie cup disposable bullshit played in one fucking week ”that shit old” and the good rappers get shot wtf fuck soja bitch ill slap him and take his spot light
Let me get this straight…so he thanks slavemasters 1)so he can STILL wear a big chain around his neck?? 2)So he can brand his skin with tatoos?
3)So he can have the gold & ice (diamonds) that are stolen from Africa???? hmmmmmmmm……
Oh, okay, I think I get it now.
seriously, does any black person here think the alternative is better??? slavery was HORRIBLE, but it got you here, to the States for better or worse.. and look, a black man is nominated for president.. so tell me, honestly, would you have rather your peeps stayed in Africa?? also remember that African kings sold slaves to the Dutch, as oppossed to Dutch just kidnapping black folk…
I’m sure what he said was just in fun but he’s famous now. He should learn that every word he says will probably make it to the media in one way or another, and they gonna have a fuckin frenzy over it.
This kid is an IDIOT!!!! This is what Hip hop is breeding now? bunch of cats who got no business leaving high school!! How could you ever be thankful to slave MASTERS!!! HOW about giving thanks to the black and the small amount of white folks that risk and gave their lives, so you can rock like you do…AND TO EVERYBODY ELSE, PLEASE DONT GIVE THIS DUMB N!GG A PASS, HE SHOULD KNOW BETTER! THE KID IS 18, AND SHOULD KNOW HIS BASIC HITORY. DONT YALL SEE WHAT I SEE?
In my opinion because I can’t speak for SB but I think he wasa being silly with his comment. I don’t think he was serious about the statement just making fun or light of the question.
So for all the pro-black, black power, black panthers and anything else black (yes I am a black man well educated in black history) do not take SB words seriously.
Caught of guard indeed! Soulja boy needs to pick up a history book but I ain’t gonna bag on him for bein’ paid over book smart. Hell I can’t..
I guess Soulja Boy is unaware of the racism, torture and rapes that took place over the 100years it took society to get to where he can finally get his “ice”… I’m sure the kid didn’t mean any harm by what he said, but he needs to think before he says something.
