Editorial Reviews
Album Description
Highly anticipated 2007 album from the young Hip Hop artist from Atlanta. At an age normally reserved for acne remedies and orthodonture, Soulja Boy signed to the inimitable roster at Interscope Records. Creating a grass-roots buzz through the internet, Soulja Boy's name and early recordings became popular in the Hip Hop underground. He paired with Atlanta-based manager Derrick Crooms, who'd been responsible for shaping the Ying-Yang Twins' successes. Soulja landed his first live performance at the grizzled age of 15, at a teen nightclub in Indianapolis, Indiana. Interscope.

If you're over 21, file souljaboytellem.com under guilty pleasures. If you're younger, let it rip without reservation. Either way, don't diss the man for acting his age: at 17, Soulja tells it like it is, whether he's heaping praise on the handheld device that saved a song he thought up on the fly (see "Sidekick") or haranguing pointlessly over his poor grades (see "Report Card"). Granted, by the time you reach the self-explanatory song, "Booty Meat," three-quarters into the disc, there's a chance you'll have had your fill of Soulja's often raunchy, always juvenile stream-of-consciousness, but so what. The first several tracks, including radio staple "Crank That (Soulja Boy)," satisfy a need for the light and the loopy (witness the lyric "So get out my face, you doo-doo head dummy" on "Yahhh!"), and the production throughout, with help from Collipark, is likably loose--to tune in is to get hit over the head with infectious hooks and down-bottom beats. Mostly, this is a prime example of what an ATL-derived dance-party disc--not a proper hip-hop one--ought to sound like. Buy it with no bigger expectations and you (or "yoouuuuuuu," as Soulja would have it) won't be disappointed. --Tammy La Gorce

Hip Hop is Dead and the undertaker is named Soulja Boy
It's a bad cd and that's being nice about it. Most of the songs are old songs redone with lyrics changed. Search around for his other songs and discover worst songs that he could have put on this cd.
There is maybe one or two decent songs on this cd.
He just did what others (Mims, T-Pain, Rich Boy and Bow Wow) have done make a song that gets turned into ring tones, gets played at sporting events and a dance that gets banned at schools. He took the hype and rushed this cd out.
And to those that said Tupac and other rappers from the 90s were worst than Soulja Boy. Sorry most of those guys had messages behind their lyrics. I don't remember Tupac telling girls to smell his behind like Soulja Boy does in a song left off this cd. He didn't encourage beating teachers up for a grade.
Just another cd making real hip hop and rap look bad since the real artists (Common, Lupe, Nas Mos Def and others) can't get their music played since they are bragging about crap.
Worst Excuse for Talent and Music Ive Ever Seen
I don't know what Hip-Hop/Rap has come to today, or even society as a whole, but this guy is the sorriest excuse for talent and good music that ive ever seen. After hearing the song on the radio, it sucked so bad that i had to get on here to write my first ever review.
The song took no talent to write, it has the dumbest lyrics ive ever heard in my life, which are pretty typcical today... take something dumb, like a name or word and make it into a new dance for the purposes of making a song about it... except this song takes it to a whole new extreme
Im sorry to go to this extreme, but this is the most ingorant excuse for hip-hop/rap, or music in general, along with the people who actually like it. You can not be even remotely intelligent if you like this song.
Yes, Most Songs Sounds Like "Crunk That"
He looks like Flavor Flav, sounds like D4L and mention his name more times on his record then Mike Jones. 17 year old DeAndre Way AKA Soulja Boy was one of the first artists to be signed to Mr.Colliparks record label. The music is mostly a mix between Crunk and Snap Music, a subgenre which Mr Collipark claims to have invented. Soulja Boy produced all but 2 songs which is quite impressive if you look at his tender age. The massive hit "Crunk That" that currently peaks at #1 is obviously the reason why most people would be interested in this album in the first place. And here's good news for those that liked it. Most songs sounds more or less the same. You guessed right, they are beat oriented party songs with bogus lyrics but pretty cool beats that shortly get repetitive though. Considering that he's still underrage, all of the explicit lyrics were edited out and this album is clean for the kids. I guess it's mostly kids that listen to him anyway so it wasn't a bad idea. However, some songs like "Donk (She Got)" and "Booty Meat" have quite obvious themes while the song "Let Me Get Em (Shootout)" is actually a dance and not about homicide. Most other songs follow the path of "Crunk That" and the catchy beats of "Sidekick" and "Snap and Roll" deserves a mention. They (like most other) are good for the clubs but with the lack of real lyrics so I won't investigate them further. But if you have more time on your hands let me know if they were more philosopical then I thought. What sticks out is "Report Card" where they use the "Throw Some D's" that Polow Da Don populized on Rich Boy's song with the same title. But here it's chanted in an unbearable manner. How un-original can you get?. "Soulja Girl" is a ballad and doesn't sound like anythig on here and I think it's the best song here. It will be the second single. On the closer "Don't Get Mad" Soulja boy pleads to parents to not be mad at their kids for liking his music. The chorus is sang in Pacman style simular to what we heard on Yung Joc's album. Conclusion?. Soulja Boy Isn't much of a rapper but incase you liked his hit and enjoy this kind of music you get what you wanted. This is the kind of Hip Hop that Nas would say say "killed the game" but in reality this isn't really Hip Hop and Soulja Boy just does what he's expected to do, and some beats are pretty cool here and there. If people still remember him in one year or if he will join the likes of J-Kwon, Mims, and D4L in one hit wonder land is anyone's guess.
