Soulja Boy Vs. Ice T?!?!
June 20th, 2008
So I was browsing the internets earlier this morning and I stumbled across a lil tit for tat grudge match between Soulja Boy and Ice-T (yea, I was shocked just like you). Now it’s come to my attention that the internet is a great forum to respond to allegations, hateful responses or just another lane to make absurd comments.
With that said, Ice-T has taken it upon himself to denounce the success of Mr. Soulja Boy himself in a brief but yet aggressive interlude on the release of an upcoming mixtape. Ice, who is an obvious Legend in this thing we call HIP HOP goes on to tell Soulja Boy to “Eat a….”! Yea, kind of harsh isn’t it. He then informs the youngster that he single handedly the art of hip hop due to his “Superman” antics. The part that made me chuckle was when Ice said, and I quote, “Man you ni**az is looking happy and sh*t” What in the hell??? Why in the world is Ice-T taking his frustrations out on Soulja Boy’s happiness? Like honestly, is it really that deep?
Like I said before, the internet is a great lane to deliver a response, because Soulja Boy went ahead and recorded his rebutal to the Westcoast legend. Though Soulja kept calling him “Old” and even asserted Ice-T was around before the first Walmart was conceived (that was funny as hell lol), he does have a point in his mini rant. If Ice-T is that upset about the quality in today’s hip hip culture, why not hop of the hater horse and alter what needs to be altered. Anyway, check out what Soulja had to say in his 7 minute response….
Alright ladies and gents let’s go to work!!
You know what, I can’t even present the notion of choosing sides on this issue, Ice T was wrong! SPEAK ON IT LADIES AND GENTS!
Sincerely

i mean if its wack, then thats ure personal opinion. Soulja Boy makin MAD cake and when u makin more money that otha HATERS r (not sayin he makin more $$$ than Ice-T, hell naw) then thats wat they gone do. Wat the vet’s and legends in hip-hop have to just realize is that 2008 hip-hop is not 1988 hip hop. Thats a 20 yr evolutionary period. And artist today (at least the one makin $$$)make music to sell record’s (who beside THAT BOY WAYNE!!!!!!!!) aren’t really sellin any in the DIGITAL AGE that we live in today. The most known mythical figure known to man was hated on HARD (Jesus Christ) so watever u do, wherever u go, there’s going to be HAAATTTTEEEERRRRRRSSSSSS (ICE-T)
I DONT UNDERSTAND WHAT EVERYONE THINKS HIP HOP IS SUPPOSE TO BE…ITS FOR ENTERTAINMENT…WHAT WE LIKE IS WHAT THEY GIVE US SO ICE-T NEED TO GROW UP AND TRY TO PICK ON SOMEBODY HIS OWN AGE….GROW-UP!!!!
i like soulja boy better so ice t go sit down
o.k. ice was wrong, BUT he has a point…not jut about soulja boy, hip hop in general. when it is all said & done, people have to embrace change, whether they like it or not. is soulja boy an ice cube or pac…a resounding NO. but people bought that crap so….soulja wins.
OK, Ice-T was wrong, but lets think about it, any ol’schooler that help invent any style of anything is gonna always have something to say about the new schooler’s style. I’m no fan of Soulja Boy and his music is terrible for hip hop, but like everyone states, its a different generation and nobody cares about the old way of doing things. We need more Lupe’s, Kanye’s, and Common’s in the rap game. hip hop artist are starting to put lyrics last when the lyrics are supposed to be first. Shout out to Weezy and The Game for keeping the music street but keeping the lyrical content.
Its a buntch of bull they realy shouldnt make such a big deal bout it cause its his personal opinyon and who cares what other people think maby it was alittlel bit of hateration going on in this case we dont know
Bottom line is Ice -T has Classic in Hip Hop and souja Boy will never have that. See thats the difference with Old School Hip Hop is that they made classics not one hitter quitters. I think the new hip hop gen would sell more if they tried to make something with a little more heart in it and keep it real if your not a gangster then dont talk like you are if your recalling hood stories then just keep it real. There’s a litte old school saying called studio gangsters. thats whos making hip hop go down. Not souja boy himself ..I dont listen to him but i actually feel he was a bright spot for a genre that really has no depth.
SB will never be a legend like ICE!
there no lengendin the the hood but there is many sell out just keep it real and stay positive chi-city
This how i see it Ice tea iz way to old to be tryin to rap he waz on the top chartz like in the 90z when i waz born so solja boi go hard forgette Ice tea sweet Ice tea
~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~Soul ja boy do Your thang
yeah, keep doing ya thing, people ned to look at the bigger picture,even if you don’t like his music, Soulja Boy is doing something positive with his life, he’s making somebody happy, I mean he did go platinum. Stop hating on people doing psitive things with their life. He could be doing something alot worst to get rich and end up in prison or worst. Look at the good things, the positive, stop hating and support.
The bottom line is that everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion as long as it is voiced in a respectful manner. Disrespecting someone because you don’t like his or her craft is totally wrong. I am not a big fan of Soulja Boy myself, but after hearing Ice-T’s disrespectful rants, Soulja boy seems to be a far better role model than he is.
Ice T as a grown man with a youngster of his own could have expressed his views differently. However, young rap artist please try rapping about something worth while that makes sense. It must be an age thing, because I like the beats of some wrap, but the lyrics are saying “NOTHING”. it’s as if young folks don’t read or can’t express logical thoughts. I’m 41 and bored to death with rap, but I have teenagers so I endure it to a point. As a parent I’ll tell you all what I tell my kids, “there’s more to life than “get money, get ho’s”. Let’s have talk about something more and I’m sure the music will improve.
the fact remains that old school music will always prevail! This new rap all you hear is cursing talkin about what you got and hos. This is with majority of the rappers but not all. Where is the standard set for rappers promoting education or anything positive??? Think about it is anything getting better for people listening to rap when all they do is put themselves down by using explicit language and showing women in every video it makes rap music look bad . BRING BACK THE LOVE OF OLD SCHOOL RAP! WORD UP ! Ice-t should buy soulja boy some icecream for puttin that little boy down like that.lol
SB betta sit his young ass down b4 ICE-T sign that slip & make him anotha late rapper 8230;lol (freesty ly friday)…He is hella wack, we’re gonna c what happens with the next album. He might jus have 1 song every other year…He is makin his money, but just because someone has an opinion about u r u gonna make a song? He’s an “INTERNET THUG” and ICE really knows what its about. He dont have to do r say nuthin 2 that lil boy, all he need 2 to is keep makin that made 4 tv money & show his wife’s ass like she been doinR 30;lol 8230;Sho ut out 2 Coco….This is not real beefin, there has 2 b real competition to compete…But the kidz r luvin SB…YAH TRICK YAH…LMAO!!!
Soulja Boy is not a rapper. That’s probably why Ice T doesn’t like him. He is a one hit wonder, thats all he will ever be.
Ice-T was absolutely right. Soulja Boy has single handlely destroyed and credibility hip hop had left.
FIRST OF HIP-HOP IS A WAY OF THINKING THE WAY YOU ACT THE WAY YOU DRESS HIP-HOP IS NOT NECESSARILY ALL ABOUT MUSIC ITS A SWAG AND A CULTURE SO FOR A VET LIKE ICE T TO COME AT AND UP AND COMING ARTIST IS RIDICULOUS TO ME IF ANYTHING HE SHOULD BE UP LIFTING AND ENCOURIGING A YOUNG BLACK BROTHER. I FEEL LIKE SOME OF THE VETS FEEL LIKE IF IT AINT TALKING ABOUT SHOOTING AND KILLING AND F*** THE POLICE (NO DISRESPECT CUZ I LOVE GANGSTA RAP) IT AINT HIP HOP. WELL TO ME YOUR WRONG HIP-HOP FEELS GOOD AND I PERSONALLY AM PROUD THAT SOMEBODY CAME OUT WITH SOMETHING THAT NOT ONLY I CAN LISTEN TO BUT SOMETHNG THAT I DONT HAVE TO PUT MY GRANNY OR MOTHER OUT THE ROOM TO LISTEN TO! HIP HOP IS NOT HATING ON THE UP AND COMING PERSON. MAYBE HE’S JUST MAD BECAUSE HE FEELS LIKE HIS TIME IS UP IN THE GAME BUT I SAY ICE T JUST DO YOU AND DONT WORRY ABOUT THE NEXT CAT BECAUSE YOU HATING ON HIM IS JUST GOING TO BOOST HIS ALBUM SALES SOULJA KEEP DOING WHAT YOU DOING YULEEEEEE!!!!
I do think IceT was wrong because I don’t think he has the righ to desciminate upon soulja boy’s happiness n whathe use to be
I SAW IT ON A MYSPACE BULLETIEN IT WAZ SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FUNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think Ice-T was wrong 2 be coming at soulja boys happinessn n what he ues 2 be
LUV U Soulja Boy
i saw it on myspace it was so funny LUV U SOULJA BOY

SOULJA BOY IS THE WACKEZT RAPPER OUT.IDK HOW U GET A DEAL WITH MUSIC YOU CAN HEAR AT A 3RD GRADERS PARTY.I BET I COULD RIP SOULJA BOY IN A BATTLE HEZ THE WACKEST ENTERTAINER(BEACAUSE HE IS NOT A ARTIST)OUT.PEOPLE LIKE HIM SHOULDNT EVEN MAKE SONGS.AND FOR ALL THE SOULJA BOY FANS ARE U STUPID.ICE T IS A HIP HOP LEGEND HANDS DOWN.IF ICE T TOLD HIM SOMETHING LIKE THAT HE SHOULD MAKE SOME CHANGES IN HIS MUSIC.1
hi i m jerry so i need a best friend
Man I think Ice T haten. All I can Soulja Boy do yo thag and why is a old man like him trying 2 talk I mean Im a fan in all but still it don’t matter I get talk about 2. I just say is luv haters so keep haten.
Excuse me for asking this question…but here it is…When did any ONE person OWN the right to HIP HOP, R&B, Modeling, whatever? Have people gotten so bored with their little lives that the must put doen the next person trying to do something they like? An sophicated and edcuated person will realize that like the weather, everything must change!. Ice T, KRS-1, Naughty By Nature had their time period and although True School is still good to listen to, New School is having it’s time, so be it. I am sure when most of the OLD HEADS were the YOUNG HEADS, there were those who felt thst they were being “replaced” in their respective fields but they prevailed because there is a generation that appreciated what they did. Just as there is one that like Rap of the 80’s and 90s, most of the younger generation like
what is out now. IT IS CALLED LIFE and it moves on. What Ice-T and most of those who have had their moment, need to admit is that they are growing older and although they may not be what is popular today, they shouldn’t be so sensitive and/or judgmental. Hell, I used to RIP the runways but I had to move over for a younger group. Bitter, nah, cause I know that what I did paved the way and it makes be glad to know that. So in closing, all you TRUE School brothers and sisters, chill and take pride in the fact that your music started something that NO ONE can take away from you…ENJOY that you were pioneers and they have to FILL the shoes you left. Stop being the HATERS but be the MOTIVATORS!!
Ice T needs to seriously stop Hatin’ on Soulja Boy. He’s a young man having fun(Soulja Boy). Hip Hop has gotten a lil’ bit crazy with non talented rappers. Now a days it doesn’t matter about the lyrics. It’s about the hook and a catchy beats. I’m proud of Soulja Boy. At least he’s doing something good,instead of pimpin’ hoes and shootin’ tha block up. Ice T you have melted because this young man is HOT!
WHERES MY COMMENT!!!????????!!!!! BET ARE YOU PUNKING OUT AGAIN ON A REAL OPINION???? HOW MANY PEOPLE ABOVE THE AGE OF 27 REEEEEEE EAAAAAAA LLLLLLLY YYYYY LISTEN TO SOULJA BOY? ICE T HAS EVOLVED TO THE POINT WHERE HE IS GETTING SYNDICATION MONEY AND SB HAS 2 OR 3 HITS? TO THE YOUNG LADY WHO SPOKE ABOUT ICE T KRS 1, NAUGHTY BY NATURE AND HAVING THEIR TIME. ALL THOSE ARTISTS, YES ARTISTS(DON’T YOU DARE CALL SB AN ARTIST), WERE BREAKING NEW MUSICAL GROUND!!!!! THAT IS WHY THEY WILL RELEVANT TO MUSICAL CRITICS 25, 30 AND EVEN 40 YEARS FROM NOW AND SB WON’T. MAKE INTELLIGENT STATEMENTS FIRST, PASSIONATE SECOND. THAT PASSION WILL HAVE GIVE YOU A WAAYYYYYYYYYY TOOOOOO SUBJECTIVE VIEWPOINT!
Ice T is who he is soulja boy is a infant
ICE-T need to pick on some1 his own age and let SOULJA BOY do his thang without having to be side swiped by a throw back rapper who clearly forgot where he originated from. ICE-T is another person who some how paved the way for up-comin rappers and if he has a problem with SOULJA BOY, out of repect for the game and soulja boy, he should have been man enough to talk to soulja boy and let him know what problem he had with his music or himself instead of disrespecting soulja by saying nasty things. ICE-T, GROW UP man and let soulja be a soldier.
ice-t dead wrong cuz soulja boy a young happy young man enjoying life ice-t should be mature about da situation n keep his comments 2 himself “awwrites”
ice-t need 2 pick on sum1 his own size cuz all of dat not called 4 sayin he old enough 2 b his son… man wateva datz y soulja boy tlk badd 2 dat azz!!!!!!!!!
SB is right.If you don’t like where Hip-Hop is going get of your a** and do something about it. Talk to the up and coming artist give them guidance,instead of sitting on yo a** and complainig about it.
Ice-t is old and soulja boy is weak, nuff said. If soulja boy wants beef, go f*** with 50.
Soulja needs to realize his name doesn’t make him a true SOLDIER! He’s a pimply faced idiot and ice is a legend. Final Answer
/1/OKAY BEING CHILDISH IS VERY STPIUD YOU ARE BOTH YOUNG MEN THAT NEED TO SETTLE THIS NOWWWWWW WWWWWWWW WWWWWWWW WWWWWWWW WWWWWWWW WWWWWWWW !!/2/SOU LJA BOY PLEASE DONT START NO MESS SO U CAN KEEP YOUR FACE CUTE!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!
/3/IT IS STPIUD THAT U ARE FIGHTING WITH A GUY U U COULD BE FFL WITH
i didn’t know Ice-T was still rapping…but anyway he shouldn’t say things about children (soulja boy). it is known that older men say thinga about children when they are less confident. Ice knows that he is a part of history and soulja is trying to make history…let it go Ice…

i like ice-t. i watch law and order SVU all the time
its all crap first of all SB isnt even hiphop! think of him as a pop star! Ice T is a rapper not a hiphop artist! a rap star! ppl get this all confused bcuase of the labels at the record store. hiphop is artist like Common, Mos Def, Kanye, Weezy, Jay Z, Nas, etc. they have stories to tell. not jus say s*** on the *@?.
I’m not a soulja boy fan but respect him. He’s getting money.I like old school rap ( 1988-1997 ).Everything changes.Lokk at presidential race! Is soulja boy gonna be a lyrical monster? No! He’ll be gone from the rap game in like another 3 years max.When it’s all said and done. He’ll have money w/the right investments.He needs to milk this thing while he’s hot.
“its all crap first of all SB isnt even hiphop! think of him as a pop star!

You have to be one of the biggest buffoons on here. Ice-T is one of the greatest–if not the greatest –s tory-tel ling Hip-Hop artists of all time. Even Ludacris gave him props in a song.
Soulja Boy is not a “Pop Star,” an “e ntertain er,̶ 1; an “artist” or anything. No, he’s not from Atlanta, and I doubt that he’s only ‘17.’
hey soulja boy has a pimple up there!! itz huuuuugee use proctive and if tat doesnt work visit ur dermatoligist. thank u and soulja boy please get dat thang taken care of please!! help ur fans!!!! POP DAT PIMPLE!!!! thank u goodby =]]
They are both garbage, so what’s the difference?
I agree that the way he is going about it is all wrong but Ice T has a point hip aint what it use to be it is all about shaking your but and dancing not real stuff. Like in the past. That is why people were sleeping on people like Common cause he was talking about life issues. When Common changed a little and got beffer and made faster paced songs he got the respect he deserved.We need less dancing and more hip hop.
do yo thang soulja boy
First of all Ice T is a legend in this game. So F**K Soulja Boy. Who is he? A one hit wonder. His reign will be done by the end of the summer. While Ice T will still be making his money and doing him. People will still be saying his name while half of you won’t even remember Souljah Boy.
i fully support soulja boy simply because ice-t was so wrong sayin that a young boy trying to make it in life songs are wack..he is tryin to make my husband look bad …luckily my boo roasted the mess out of ice-t i guess he didn’t see that coming
Yo ice you did some crazy s**T man but this one takes the cake takin your anger out on the boy soulja like dat i would of did da same thang if you said somtin like dat bout me. Look T if you dont like what goin on in hip hop 2day than stop bein a winney little sissy and do somtin bout it
but stop bein somtin you taunt us never 2 be a hater man much respect souljaboy keep doin what u doin partna even u ice
okay, if you look at soulja boy’s response at the end,you’ll see that he said,”if you complain about the rap game why dont you do somthin about it” TRUE
Ice T claims that he helped pave the way for Hip-Hop so in a way he is responsible for what he is tryna call Soulja Boy out on.I also feel that what SB is doin is very positive for the younger generation his music supplies nice beats and not a lot of profanity or negative things that kids should stay away from and Ice needs to grow up and be a man about the situation.If you don’t wan’t to come off as a hater then try to help someone in a way you feel is respectful.SB keep up the good work Im behind you 200% stay positive.Ice T sit yo old A** down and stop hatin you old fart(LOL).Peace and Love 1
U Kno WHAT iiTiiNK iiCe-T iiS A HATER! iiMean he qot madddddd money n can b qoiin on wiith hiiz lyfe buh nooooo! he wants to diizz soulja boy tell em for no reason why? cuz his kids probully like em n madd ppl respect erm.LiiKE iiSAiiD iiCe-T iiS ON BiiTCHAZZNESS! niqquh u iiz hella old!qo eat surm prunes n kall iit day n put surm LEMONADE On iiT!?!..iiM OUT .2.DUECES.2.
ok… wat people fail to understand is that hip hop is to large of a genre to classify one style or one artist as the definition of hip hop. Now of days hip hop has evovled in such a way its become a genre with many sub genres. So for Ice-t to be hatin on soulja boy the way that he is only proves that the kid is doin somethin right…for real dough who many 17 year olds write, produce, make 5 mill off downloads, and have 65 year old white women singing their song….ice?
im 41 i grew up on ice t soulja boy stay in a boys place you cant walk in a legend’s shoes
take advice “let it go” make your money and live well yeas soulja boy your songs are tight but done walk on a legend.learn from him
man i think ice-t was wrong 4 sayin wat he said. i mean we all know he;’s an older guy, and wat he said did not show his maturity level at all. soulja boi is a good rapper obviously i mean he did go platinum in wat???…less than 6 months we as people shud stop indentifying each others faults and learn 2 be supportiv of each others success…REMEMBER ONLY GOD CAN JUDGE YOU!!!!
This is so STUPID if your a true HIP-HOP legend or fan you will let music be music and stop all the HATTINNN,,,, There’s a new generation of listeners now and the music has to revolve around the mode,,, You can’t stay in OLD SCHOOL your entire life.. Ice needs to chill and let the Younger Generation do what they do….
I MEAN ICE-T IS SERIOUSLY HATIN…LET THE BOY AND OTHER YOUNGSTAS OUT HAVE FUN DOING THEIR MUSIC JUST LIKE PEOPLE LET ICE-T AND ALL THOSE OTHER OLD ENTERTAITNERS HAVE FUN WHEN THEY WERE OUT. JUST LET THIS CHILD ENJOY HIMSELF. ICE-T CAN’T EVEN FREAKIN RAP I MEAN COME ON…
If there’s anything not to be mad at, its that someone in hip hop is NOT mad or angry looking! To be honest, I get tired of seeing all the muggin, I mean afterall, aren’t these all supposed to be millonare rappers with money in the bank?! I’ve never seen such angry rich men! Be that as it may, Ice-T does make one point I do agree with and that’s Soulja Boy has decreased the quality of today’s hip hop game. No one is hating on him, everyone comes into the game and adds their flavor and his flavor suits the audience its supposed to I suppose (sorry don’t listen to much SB). Now, I’ll say this for SB, he does have rappers young and old nibbling off his style in alot of ways, and I think his fun approach to hip hop will evolve and he will be a force (hopefully) as hip hop evolves if he dedicates himself to becoming a better artist. its all ifs and whens right now, Ice-T is legendary, SB is a newby, time will reveal all.
Ice-T stop hatin!you a legend why you hatin you go money and everythin.STOP HATTTTTIN!
Thats whats wrong with hip hop, artist like soulja boy, Vic & anyone who has a dance to their song….IS NOT HIP HOP….is a song for the quote, unquote 2008 era. ( Bubble-gum era) not bagging or puttin this era down, I like it but its not hip hop is bubble gum rap. Do ya thing Soulja boy, But I dont consider him or anyone like him a HIP HOP ARTIST!!!!
Ice T is trully telling the truth, because alot of the stuff that these fake rapper come up with is stupid as hell.It just get on my nerves how back in the day people would write 4 hours and days thinking about what to say now these young dumb fools just say the first thing out their mouth and those who like it are just as dumb. I am only 19 and I know you can never call THAT YOUNG DUMB
ICE T is trully right, these fake rappers today do not even know what rap is theY just say the first thing out their stupid little young dumb mouths. They not talking about whats going on in the world today who do you hear talking bout stop the violence or gas prices, or even the election, NONE OF these lil fools(soulja boy)yeah you gets no caps. I bet he dont even no the history of rap, if he did he would not say the stupid stuff he does, and he would remember that their once was at time when rappers had to write their lyrics for hours and days to make sure it was write (they talked about what was going on) But noT soulja boy and all that like him you are supporting a dummie who knows nothing about HIP HOP and just says the first thing out of his mouth and im only 19 and i know the differenc. CHECK THAT OUT!!!!!!!!!FIGHT THE POWER, RESPECT ALL THOSE B4, AND YOU WILL THEN KNOW U
WUZ HATTNEN& #8230; p>

y aint my comment being posted??
I feel ice t shouldnt have came at soulja boy the way he did. Ive seem the video’s about the beef but i mean hes a kid tryin to do right by his family hasnt had any problems with no other legends from the west coast but like soulja boy said in his video he has mad respect for all the legends in the game b-cuz thats the reason why hes where hes at but both of them where wrong b-cuz ice-t shouldnt have said wat he said about soulja boy out of rage and soulja boy shouldnt have replied the way he did in the video calling his an old man saying he was born back when we had wooden cars that was wrong so they were both a part in it that kept it going on………
Also you caint call the people who listen to their music DUMB,STUPID or RETARTED because they like that artist and you dont because you dont even know the people who listen to it and im only 14 and ive listened to both there music and i like it all but ok the things from back in the day did have meaning but some of it today does to just listen to what they say and the song superman was made as a dance track
LETS B REAL……..They shouldn’t (soulja Boy) A Hip Hop artist because he isn’t the caliber of rapper. Only the elite lyrist should be called that….with that being said….I think lil dude doing his thing, but I thinks he a entertainer….NOT A HIP HOP ARTIST!!!! Ice-T maybe on to somethin, maybe they should just change rap genre to “Bubble gum rap” JUST BEING REAL…..& I LISTEN TO EVRYTING!!!RAP, POP, GOSPEL, HIP HOP, R&B……I LISTEN TO EVRYONE FROM LUPE FIASCO TO DEVIN THE DUDE TO JAY-Z TO LIL WAYNE…….

call me a hater but soldier boy’s music is garbage!!!!!
Mark my word Soldier Boy is a one hit wonder
Hip-Hop is all about who is da best and who can handle the #@* better. So you will alwayz have beef, but Soulja Boy is out of his league messing with a legend. Com ‘on, Ice is typically better than SB.
SouLja Boy IS flat out wrong. All he do is make beats and sing about dances. I Don’t listen 2 Ice T but a legends a Legends they don’t go know where. But new comers do how long will souja boy be in dthe game for real.
Okay so I’ve read the article…what do I think? I’m going to just keep it short. Ice T: Legend Soulja Boy: A Joke. Now you ask why i said it. No I’m not a hating on his “game”(laugh laugh) but this kid came out with this dumb song and idiots are actually saying it’s hip hop…haha. It’s the same as lip gloss…a pretty cool beat with dumb lyrics…get it together. Real Hip Hop is like Nas,Jay , kanye…songs with a deep message…get it together young 1
Do Hip Hop people automatically learn to not type and spell out words correctly? Thanks for reinforcing the stereotype.
Ice T, is just jealous cause he aint black! he with that ugly white woman and tryin to get attention any way he can, send him a news flash:”white aint right”. Hip hop is real, REAL BLACK that is…
hey baby wat u doing dis to soulka boy
out of everybody in the hip-hop deal he picks on soulja-boy. soulja boy haven’t did anything to nobody, all he doing is making music like everybody else. Ice-T sorry to say grow up and leave soulja-boy alone. STOP HATEN!!!
Ice this is not something you should waste your time with. You will always be a legend and you earned your keep. Solja boy is like an updated Sir Mix A Lot. Give him his Lime Light now so he can get money for School and stuff and let him be on his way. I just don’t agree with people even considering him to be put on te list of hottest MCs in the game. Solja boy is not an MC period. If he was put on that list, tha Ice you should have stepped up and anounced that Hip Hop is officially dead!!!!!
Man all this beef stuff is wack how ice t old tail tryin to beef with soulja boy he just need to handle his business and stop tryin to be young
WOW, with all the wack mc’s out there he picked souja boy? why we blaming 1? a legend like ice-t is picking on souja boy, thats weak. very weak.

The east/west beef killed hip hop not a 17 yr old who’s been out for only a year. Plus the kid’s already got more sucess than ice two top ten hits and a top 20, Ice had cop killer and that was with his rock band.
One of the beautiful things about hip hop back in the day was it was diffrent kinds of rap styles. You had Run-DMC, Whodini, Ice T, LL, Rakim, Slick Rick, Fresh Prince, Public Enemy, BDP, NWA etc…
All of these artist had their styles and they stayed in their lanes and did their thing and it was great. I have my preference of styles. I like lyrics and message rap but enjoyed all of them.
Souja Boy is no different. He has his lane and he is driving in it. He may never be at Ice T’s level as far as skill and artistic expression (Colors, Six in the Morning) but Ice T should not disrepect his hustle nor should Souja Boy disrepect Ice T.
Ice T. should be the bigger man on this and apologize and give this young man some words of wisdom on how to survive more than the 15 minutes that people seem to think he has.
I TINK HE GONNA WIN A LEAST ONE OR TWO AWARDS!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !! AND GOOD LUCK!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!
I understand both sides of the stories, but most of all i agree with Ice T more. Music in my day of time does not have meaning anymore. New artists don’t take that time to come up with nothing new, I’m not saying stay in the old pattern, but have some kind of message on what you saying. For us to be role models as well as black americans giving our young ones the wrong ideals to go by. I was told having beef don’t make you a good artist, your talent, drive, and passion is what do.
The real deal

I think Ice made his point but maybe he should have used a little old school flava oan youngen instead of getting at him the way he did and for the record what I think alot of the younger genration is missing Hip Hop is not entertainment rap is and there confusing the two.
Rap has had it’s dance songs from the pee wee herman to doing the humpty hump so dance songs will always be a part of rap but don’t confuse the two what Soulja Boy is trying call his music hip hop and it’s not !!!! Sorry Soulja boy it’s not niether is LIL Wayne it’s rap.Root s,Kanye, Common,W u-tang,T I thats hip hop!!
watever sooo what
Ice-t has a point nowadayz wutz suppose to be hiphop is now garbage cuz you got a bunch of untalented guys with no good lyrics all dey got iz commercial sh*t. and it dont make sense
Isn’t Ice-T like old enough to be this kid Dad. Ice-T needs to be an adult and stop reacting like a 16year old boy.
i like soulja boy better so ice-t could go back where he came from
