Rap-Up.com || Quote of the Day: Nelly on Soulja Boy

“The guy’s 17 years old. You think he was worried about what a 30-year-old thinks about his fucking music when he was makin’ that song? Trip off the fact that here’s a 17-year-old that wrote and produced his own album, that found a way to make himself prevalent, got on YouTube, and made himself big. Look at that! That was brilliant to me. Again, hip-hop started for the youth, it was created by the youth, so why is all the old heads tryin’ to control it?”

BAM! You are a stupid idiot. Nelly is not old not to mention. His age had nothing to do with what he was talking about. Moron. Grow a brain. Freak

Nelly is right. Eventhough I do not like Soulja Boy’s music, you can’t discredit him for not being orginal, and making his own music, he did that by himself and had America trying to do that dance. LOL! But good point Nelly.
BAM!

I know I am an idiot. I wasn\’t born with a brain. That is why I am so stupid and that is why I was hating on nelly even though he has made more money than I will ever be able to make in 5 lifetimes.
