Over the weekend, Soulja (real name DeAndre Cortez Way) performed at the inaugural Crypto Ball in Washington DC, an event described as a “celebratory setting intended to honour America’s first ‘crypto president’”. Many online criticised the ‘Crank Dat’ rapper for aligning himself with Trump and his infamous policies, so he took to Instagram Live and stood by his decision,
“Them n****s they paid me a bag, n****,” he began. “[Barack] Obama ain’t ever put no money in my pockets, n****. Kamala [Harris] ain’t never no money in my motherfucking pockets, n****. Trump put money in my pockets, n****.
“Motherfuckers are trying to say something about me performing at the Crypto Ball party: did Kamala call my fucking phone? Did Obama call my motherfucking phone? Did any of y’all n****s call my motherfucking phone?
Way continued: “Fuck you mean, I do whatever the fuck I want. It wasn’t even a Trump event – Trump wasn’t even there,. Y’all so worried about, ‘He performed: him, Snoop, and them.’ Kamala didn’t even win, n****. Y’all want me not to answer the phone on the motherfucking president? Y’all can suck my dick and cancel me all day.”
