Happy New Year peeps! We’re bummed to start 2009 with a disturbing news about our guy Soulja Boy. But well, here goes: When usually Soulja Boy robs our hearts and attention with his music, today we came across some gossips saying Soulja Boy was robbed. We were shocked and worried reading this report on Ballerstatus.com:
Teen rapper Soulja Boy may have been robbed at gunpoint earlier this week at his home in Atlanta. However, reports are still unconfirmed.
Via text messages on the rapper’s official Twitter page, he left an ATL night club “zooted” at around 11:30 p.m. on Monday (December 29). Then hours later, the next day, two more texts popped up, stating robbers kicked in his door, and almost took his life.
“Thanking God for my life,” Soulja Boy’s Twitter message read. “Six n****z kicked in my door and tried to kill me.”
“Glad we alive, they had AKs and pistols and tried to kidnap my boy Jbar,” another message read later that afternoon.
Later Tuesday evening (December 30), the messages mysteriously disappeared, and the teen rapper hasn’t addressed the alleged attack as of press time.
Ever since the shocking messages, the rumor has popped up on several gossip sites. Then on New Year’s Eve, two masked men posted a viral video (via Bossip), claiming responsibility for the crime. However, the men claimed that they were the only two robbers and not six, as Soulja Boy originally said. They also said that only one pistol was used, and not AK-47s.
In the video, the two men boast of monitoring the young rapper’s movements, attending his album release party, and then following him by to his home.
While the video was first met with skepticism by online fans, a rep for Soulja Boy confirmed to AllHipHop that an incident did take place. However, no further information was released, other than stating that the crime is “a serious situation.”
We’ll keep our eyes and ears open about this, peeps, and we’ll keep up with the update. We just hope it’s not true and if it were, we hope Soulja Boy, Arab and the rest of the crew is okay. Our thoughts are with y’all. And for stans who happen to have tips surrounding this news, do post your comments ‘coz as S-Beezy’s reps said: it was a very serious situation.
Before we say what we’re about to say, we wanna wish you all a Merry Christmas. We know it’s kinda late, but hey, better late than nothing, right?
Now on to the news.
Word is, His Hotness Soulja Boy is getting close with a video model.
Aha. We know what you’re thinking. “Sure, they pose for a bit. That’s nothing but a friendly hug and S-Beezy isn’t really touching her anyway. So how could it be a relationship?” Yeah, we thought that too until we found this.
Yes, peeps. MediaTakeOut reported that Soulja Boy gave his signature bling to Sheneka Adams, a video model. And the bling is reported to be worth $100,000! Come on, why would a guy give any girl $100 K worth of his most personal posession if he doesn’t even have a ‘thing’ for her?
Nobody from S-Beezy’s side is commenting on this news yet, but let’s see how this improves.
His Hotness, Soulja Boy, will appear in MTV’s MADE Series. You know, the Emmy-winning show where viewers is allowed to spend a day walking in somebody else’s shoes.
So the show will go like this: January 10th from 12 pm to 5 pm, MADE takes three suburban kids and turns them into hip hop dancers, and there will also be the first MADE Head to Head Hip Hop Challenge, featuring celebrity judges Laurie Ann Gibson and Cris Judd.

Each of them will be trained to compete and perform with our man Soulja Boy in the MADE: Head To Head Hip Hop Challenge. Soulja Boy is going to perform his new dance: “The Bird Walk”.
