Soulja Boy says his first two albums were a product of him bullsh*tting around and making catchy tunes just to get in the door. His third album? He says he’s bringing the heat! And he wants Jay-Z and Lil Wayne’s assistance.
“I want the best of the best on this album,” Soulja said Saturday night in L.A., backstage at the yearly throwdown known as KIIS-FM’s Wango Tango concert. “I don’t want no bullsh–. I want, from start to finish, classic #1 records. I’m not playing.
“Mark my words: This album will be a classic,” he promised. “A lot of people been sleeping on Soulja Boy for a long time. A lot of people … said I was garbage,” he added. “They said I was a one-hit wonder, then I came with ‘Kiss Me Through the Phone,’ my second #1 single. Then I released ‘Turn My Swag On,’ my third #1 single. I got everybody’s ears open, so I’m gonna hit them with a classic. Mark my words: This album will go platinum. It will be the best album I’ve put out so far.
“My first two albums, I never did tell people my story,” he said. “I just put out fun records. … Now that people got these hits, it’s time to go in on ’em.”
