Soulja Boy, the first rapper to do everything. The king of the internet. While he stayed relevant for all these years, the biggest thing he ever did was the FIRST thing he ever did, will he ever be able to top that?

in a nutshell, he did started everything that's associated with modern hip hop, good and bad, which includes the issues with lyricism as something irrelevant in mainstream hip hop (save exceptions), soulja's music was and will still being bad, but his genius as a producer is just insane.

Because his music is bad. In the grand scheme of things growing through social media was going to be a thing with or without Soulja boy youtube was going to be the next big thing with or without Soulja boy. So artists were going to be on it with or without Soulja boy. And MySpace was originally supposed to be for musical artists and bands to post their music so obviously that would have been done with or without Soulja boy too. As someone who actually lived through it as a teenager and not a child I can tell you Soulja boy didn't have as big of an influence as everybody thinks. Yea crank that blew up for a summer and people made different versions but that's where his influence in music truly starts and ends and it was a horrible 1. All those songs were awful

He also went huge in kind of a bad way for himself. Crank That was such a bubblegum pop rap type of song outside of a few lines that his primary audience was white suburbia and pop radio, which made it damn near impossible for him to be taken seriously later. The kid was dancing to it on Ellen FFS. If he'd never released Crank That he wouldn't have gotten as big but he likely could have enjoyed a slow climb and be given more respect now.

I think he’s someone who greatly succeeded but also suffered from the term “Ahead of it’s time” he came into the game in a mixed void and took advantage of early social media before it’s peak and made a success out of it after the whole gang rap era that dominated the 90s and early 2000s but most pioneers rarely get the credit for what they started and it’s the person after that reaps their benefits but due to the game changing and drake Chris Brown Wayne and kayne started their dominant grip on mainstream media he fell off and his music wasn’t on that level I believe today he could have been way more successful with tiktok Instagram And UKposts and make way more money and more well known he’s a product of the mid 2000s as the forgotten

So basically what I took away from this is: 1. Soulja Boy may seem like a moron but he’s actually really really smart especially when it comes to going viral, and making money througu social media 2. He was literally the man who paved the way for every artist alive right now. He paved the way for how music is played and produced. 3. Soulja Boy is an absolute legend in the rap community

He literally paved the way for folks like Diddy, Dre, Eminem, Beyoncé, Nas, and every other artist alive? Damn. Dude must really be a legend. He understood viral culture. That’s about it. He didn’t innovate how music is played or produced. He didn’t write songs that had any depth to it. He innovated how to trick people into thinking they were downloading good music only to find out they got Rick Rolled. If you think Soulja is a legend in rap/hip hop, you must be a zoomer with zero knowledge of music prior to 2010. You probably think Drake is one of the best artists ever, too.

When you said in 2005 rappers were not uploading to the internet, they were still pushing CDs, but that's not true. I was putting music out back then, and there were a lot of online outlets specifically for independent music artists. CDs hadn't died, and streaming was not the "primary" way to release music for artists signed to majors, but Soulja was not the only one doing it. Back then, digital was something all underground rappers were using, because they didn't have record deals. Soulja was the first one to blow up big off that way of doing it. Everyone and their mother was trying it back then. He succeeded.
