“Soulja Boy:” A self-serving apology to the troops; Update: Troops respond on Youtube
So, the foul-mouthed rapper “Soulja Boy” told American soldiers to go “f**k” off in a new rap video and insulted them for not being real men.
Now, he says he didn’t really mean it — and, in fact, the reason he said “f**k” our “Army troops” is that he cares about them so much and respects them and just wants them home. Really.
More on the supposedly heartfelt apology in a moment.
The story came to light over the weekend on TMZ:
A proud military veteran is demanding an apology from Soulja Boy — after the rapper posted a video saying, “f**k the army troops.”
Soulja ignited a wave of controversy this week over his new song, “Let’s Be Real” — which includes the lyrics:
“F**k the FBI and the army troops … fighting for what? Be your own man …
… I’ll be flying through the clouds with green like I’m Peter Pan.”
Here’s the video. Warning: It’s profanity-laced and headache-inducing:
Rap mogul Russell Simmons is “proud” of Soulja Boy for this “emotional” apology:
As an artist, I let my words get the best of me. Sometimes there are things that we feel, things that we want to express, and when we put them on paper and speak them out loud, they can come out wrong. When I expressed my frustration with the US Army, not only did my words come out wrong, I was wrong to even speak them. So, I write this to give my sincerest apology to all members of the United States military services, as well as their families that were offended by my most recent lyrics.
…In no way would I ever want to offend those who are protecting our freedoms … a lot of homeboys who I grew up with, a lot of people who come from the neighborhoods we live in … In no way do I want to hurt any of our honorable soldiers who put their lives at risk, regardless of how they feel about the two wars we fight in. I am just frustrated that we haven’t been able to bring you all home quick enough and my frustration got the best of me. I am deeply sorry.
A truly sincere apology would have acknowledged that “Soulja Boy” (what a name for a coward who disses the troops, eh?) was pandering to military-hating fans, not “expressing his frustration” over long, military engagements.
Note that no apology was made to those who serve in the FBI.
Just wondering: Has “Soulja Boy” ever penned lyrics telling jihadists to “f***” off? Be your own man for once, “Soulja.” Try it.
The next most offensive words in his apology: “As an artist…”
Oy.

The Military Times notes that our troops have enjoyed and supported “Soulja Boy’s” work in the past. Maybe they’ll think twice now:
I think it’s safe to say Marines won’t be dancing to “Crank That (Soulja Boy)” at the Marine Corps Birthday Ball again this year.

Whenever I see bi-pedal vermin such as this (and Kanye West, Chuck D., Snoop Dog, etc.) as well as the likes of Spike Lee, Cornel West, Al Sharpton and Jeremiah Wright, I can only think that the souls of people such as Jackie Robinson, Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington and Marian Anderson must be turning in their graves.
Never heard of this loser.
“As an artist”. Yeah, his “talent” is a separate person who cannot be controlled. These guys are so full of themselves.
He’s sorry alright.
A sorry example of young black men and of our education system and culture.
Russell Simmons is a sorry example of a money grubbing corporate exec who will do anything for a buck.
Hey! Doesn’t he support Sir Golfsalot?
I thought corporate execs who fly around in private jets were the enemy of the economy?
Rap = Crap
I am happy to say I have never heard of this worm. Wonder if this slug will get the next invite to the wh for bho and mo’s music evening?
God bless all our military and keep them safe and the families also.
L
It is no surprise that this is this his opinion. That he apologized is the surprising thing. Sure, it was self-serving, but on the other hand it was probably sincere. He sincerely doesn’t want members of the military to stop buying his “art.”
BINGO!
Wow…just, WOW!
This jerk isn’t an “artist”. He is just another thug, like the one in the WH. No apology is needed, as we know he doesn’t mean it. Ass-covering, is all it is.
I like how he worked in his “hood”. Like it’s the only part of America worth saving to him. Keep it real, Boy. Stay in the hood.
GO f yourself soulja boy. No I didn’t mean that, Yeah I did.
His fans know what his feelings are about our military.
Oh…and, who the heck is this guy? Just another two-bit rapper. Do these people, who are a dime a dozen, actually get money for this trash? How far we have fallen! I’m still listening to the 50′s classics and, yeah, Mozart and Beethoven.
Mr. Happy blocks disgusting “art” from our router. It’s just as well, too early in the morning for barf.
To start with, I’ve never heard of this loser…and I’m pretty happy about that. I am thankful that I’m old enough to have grown up listening to real music, not this vulgar no-talent crap that is passed off as “art”. These people have no talent, that is why they have to do something controversial to get noticed. Does he make a lot of money…probably…but then again drug lords in central America make a lot of money too, but I don’t have any use for them either.
POS
GFY
ASAP
when you edit your thoughts before opening your mouth, you don’t need apologies nearly so often. but, when you open your mouth, and put it out on a cd, and nobody noticed, this is terrible. if he just said this at a concert, apology accepted, but to record it, sorry charlie. apology not accepted, unless you remove each and every one of these cd’s, and replace them with an apology cd, then i might accept it.
Michelle, your “voice to text” application on your computer hosed you! Sure, “wants” sounds a lot like “ones”, but a good program would have flagged it with a grammar checker. Please correct, and send my ‘guest editor’ check to the usual address.
If he hasn’t pulled the song, his “apology” is nothing but empty words.
Has he pulled it?
The next most offensive words in his apology: “As an artist…”
precisely…
Yup. Endoctrinating them to be perpetual victims of our culture’s and society’s past wrongs, while indulging them in false self-esteem and inward focus on themselves.
Not necessarily controversial….No talent, so-called entertainers are a byproduct of the dumbing down, lowering standards of excellence, no one should be any better than anyone else, brought to us by decades of leftist public indoctrinators, also teaching to hate the imperialistic USA and its projection of world power through the use of its military.
It’s called the degradation of culture. When this defecation is passed off as “art,” then everything decent and note-worthy is covered with it. It is interesting that Black folks used to produce some exceptional music and entertainment, but now it is practically ALL aimed at propagating hate, rage, and anti-social behavior. When THAT is the sole of your cultural experience, then what do you expect with record-low HS graduations, record-high crime rates and unemployment, and an enormous number of your children being aborted (and too many of the rest being born out of wed-lock)?
Not surprising.
I used to be obsessed with [c]rap and rap [lack of] culture because MTV pushed it on me when I was a child.
I also used to be a hardcore leftist and was attracted to the anti-American, anti-Western and anti-police worldview that’s central to rap “music”.
Anyone who listens to rap music beyond the age of 18 should just be ashamed of themselves…
Wow.
Rap is an effective medium, especially for outrage. In many ways it’s like punk. But like punk, rap can be co-opted for the cash, as it is in the case of this DeAndre kid.
On the other hand Sgt. Dunson’s reply was a pitch perfect use of rap, in this case to express the outrage of someone who has actually seen an IED and what it can do, after being cussed out by a snotty poseur from Chi-town.
Yeah, if I were DeAndre I wouldn’t expect a lot of invitations to military events. And even if I did get one, I don’t think I’d go.
The fact that people in this country buy this scum’s recordings says volumes about this poor sick Republic.
Isn’t ‘boy’ supposed to be demeaning; per the Jim Crow era?
Russell Simmons is “proud” of Soulja Boy for making him a crapload of money, most of it coming from dummass white teenagers.
nowadays everybody wanna talk
like they got sumthin’ to say
but nuthin’ comes out when they move their lips
just a bunch of gibberish
these muthaf*ckahs act
like they forgot about Dre
Bring on the coming Hispanic flood. I’m tired of holding back pond scum like this. Let someone else pull the load a while.
Yo! Playah! So, it’s okay to refer to black men, and their juniors, as “boys” now? Well, I suppose when one acts like one, then the term should apply, no matter the race.
You do realize though, that you gave the thugs that follow your rap-hatred prose set to music (it’s not poetry, BTW) yet another reason to attack the “white man”, not that they needed another angry reason…
Once outta da mouth, it’s kinda hard to say, “I’m sorry,” when you, and your advisers had plenty of time to review, discuss, and rewrite, before it was recorded and distributed. Your apology was not sincere, but was issued to appease those who might hold your career in their hands. Too late, playah!
It’s not so much military-hating fans as it is government hating fans and trying to create an image of being from the hood. If people like Jackson and Sharpton really wanted to help out the black community they would do more to point out how this type of message (and other messages in rap) do more harm to a community.
We’ve gone from:
“On the boardwalk we’ll be having fun”
and
“I’ve got sunshine on a cloudy day with my girl”
Now we have this. “Let’s be Real”
I wonder how many kids will be “Dancin in the Street” to “Let’s be Real”
The kind of “dancin” they’ll do to this song will probably be the flash mob.
I expect the Black Community to denounce this POS in 3.2.1. er.. 3.2.1. um.. 3.2.1 (taps foot) We’re waiting!
He’s just another punk who can’t speak proper grammar.
More like celebrating this fool, claiming we misunderstand him.
Of course, you’ll be waiting a lifetime for the Black Community and its self appointed leaders to denounce him, and any of his foul ilk.
And this is what Afro-Americans think of the American Military, Law Enforcement and the American way of life. Just another example of where “multiculturalism” has utterly failed. We are seeing it more plainly everyday!
Paratus
Thank you, LBJ, for destroying the Black family.
TrueSoldier
I’m not even Black and I’ve got more experience in “da hood” than most of the elites do.
They don’t. Sharpton and Jackson and their liberal elite masters are too hellbent on destroying what they see as the straight, able-bodied Anglo-Saxon male who has been running planet earth for the last 2000 years.
If they really wanted to help (that also includes self-loathing white men and Farrakan and Wright) they’d check fame and fortune at the door, sell all their fancy stuff and junk that is cluttering up their homes and volunteer at a soup kitchen or with United Way. Or at the very least get up and tell the darn truth like Bill Cosby and the mayor of Philly do.
Otherwise, don’t even bother listening.
From what I understand, Obama wasn’t “black enough” to be a Black President for Sharpton, despite that the fact Clinton was given that title because the race-baiting left thought that we were doomed to eternal ignorance to elect someone with darker skin to the oval office.
And as Mark Steyn noted: Jesse Jackson wanted to perform emergency surgery on Obama.
After WW2, didn’t the U.S. prosecute Axis Sally and Tokyo Rose for this same type of rhetoric? Seems there are a lot of “protesters” that fall into the same classification.
I know they are a protected species. Protected by the same thing, 1st Amendment, that gives them the right to be scum.
Sad that it is considered by some to be “Art’.
Its always fun for me to watch those nostalgic salutes to the music and the stars of that era PBS runs on occasion. Those who can still sing on as senior citizens are usually still enjoyable to hear perform. One of the few programs I’ll watch on PBS.
Can you imagine PBS, 40 years from now, airing salutes to our era’s rap stars hits. Bitter senior citizens wailing on with their foul lyrics.
Yup, sure to be a great success for PBS’s fund raising membership drives.
another reason I dislike Rap with a passion, the artists (?), if that’s art.
Anyone wonder what happened to the Black culture in America, just take a look and listen. That ain’t R&B or The Blues, it’s crap.
Real men? Really? Let me take you on a tour of some of our finest Army posts…You’ll see nothing but real men…stomping a mudhole in your backside and walking it dry…
As soon as someone has to refer to themselves as an “artist,” it’s a sure bet that they aren’t.
The truly freighting thing about this is “They are out there, they surround us, they protest, they consume, and sometimes they vote”. I fear for our great nation, we are in the hands of our sworn enemies, and Reverend Wright told us all plainly what he and his parishioner needed to do to correct the wrongs. They are doing it. Soulja boy doesn’t contribute much, but he contributes.
I wasn’t listening when the maggot said it, and I am definitely not listening when it apologizes.
That would be over pricing them at two-bits.
Never heard of him…never want to hear of him again…
Yup.
Try any major urban core and many smaller ones.
Enemy territory.
Some people are just small.
SoB needs to change his name.
Agreed.
I believe the saying goes:
“If you gotta tell ‘em who you is, you isn’t.”
More damage than most white Americans can ever know. Almost would’ve been better literally killing us off with “kindness”.
The ironic drawback of Dr. King was unwittingly implanting the idea in the heads of not just white America but fatally to black American pride and self-sustainance, the idea that we need a “leader” to begin with. Like children need someone to show them the way. White americans have no social “leader”, nor Asian or Hispanic or even Native Indian Americans have one. In too many ways having a “leader” representing a whole “race” is the most self-condescending defeatist way to lift or inspire your community and individual self-esteem.

“Two-bit rapper”? That would be, what, Fitty-Cent, at a fitty percent mark-down?
Rap is not music. Rap is a hate crime.
What in the world was that guy thinking?
He should have said F## Texas:
http://amarillo.com/news/2011-09-03/beilue-doctor-plans-community-center-honor-mom
So is he changing the “lyrics?” Taking the track off the album? Did I miss something here?
If that @#$% is a *&#@$ artist then I’m a %$#&* poet and didn’t %&*$#@ know-it!
What do y’all think of this rap?
Ah’m $%#&* proud ta be a #$%&* Okie from $%#&* Muskogee!
@#$%& place where even $%&*^ squares can have a %$#@& ball!
I’ll make so much money I’ll have to buy my own bank to store it all.
Acceptance of this kind of crap is everywhere. I heard Colmes last week praising the lowering of morals in this country as a very good thing. He said that being free to express yourself without all these inhibitions is finally acceptable and it is good for our culture. He babbled something else as they were tightening the knot on the straitjacket, but by then he was unintelligible. Hey FOX, can we please stop giving that raving maniac a forum??? It is one thing to give a “fair and balanced” answer, quite another to spew nonsense and say it is fair and balanced. Apparently, FOX hasn’t figured out the difference yet.
If you’re gonna be a rapper, ya gotta start talking like one. Be sure to include the proper adjectives.
I blame Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis, the Beatles, and others.
Had we stopped them then, we wouldn’t have the foul-mouthed chanting called “rap” today.
Are we yet ready to admit maybe our parents (and now grandparents, I guess) might have known a thing or two?
As is the case w/ the Union Thug Top 10 coverage, I can’t help but feel perfectly awful for Michelle being forced to cover these profanity saturated dimwits.
Conservatives elect to ignore, they win. The intimidation stands. Try to dissect it and you find yourself in the same alley?
Ahem, in terms of ‘artistry’? Let’s take away your 106 Channel recording ‘studio’, herd of sound engineers loaded to the armpits w/ MIDI magic, nix the pre-loaded ( and totally predictable ) bass tracks and ‘sweeteners’ and see how much ‘talent’ is left?

Oh yeah, sure good for our culture to hear hight school and middle school kids on the commuter train, loud and rude, adding vulgarities to their conversations, talking about their sexual exploits without a thought given to who has to hear it.
A 1964 reaction to the Beatles:
As good a definition of modern “music” and “rap” as any I’ve heard.
Looney leftwing liberals do think that morals and standards are bad since they have none themselves.
Hiraghm,
Sorry, but having the FBI launching a 13 month long investigation as to what the lyrics to Louie, Louie ( deciphering if there were actually is anything ‘subversive’? ) is quite different than using the f-word in every verse.
God bless our troops who keep our country free, which allows people like Soulja Boy to spew hate.
I choose not to redistribute my wealth to so-called artists like Soulja Boy. So many of the current group of “artists” do nothing but undermine morality and/or spew their love for all things liberal (or hate for all things conservative). Folks like this need our prayers.
And I’m just certain you’d feel the same way about “civil rights activists” reacting negatively to a community center that appeared to be named after a white separatist organization but was only named after someone’s grampa.
By the way, you realize you only got one side of the story with that article, so you have absolutely no idea what happened or who reacted or how. I know, it’s shocking that the media would present a one-sided story that might cast conservatives in a bad light, but facing the facts is what growing up is all about. You may find out about that someday.
Now, if you want to see some real paranoid, ugly hate speech based on ignorant stereotypes of the “Others” living among us, just look at the comment section below that article (hint: it’s not directed at Muslims).
(chorus)
I’m a soldier
These shoulders hold up so much
They wont budge, I’ll never fall or fold up
I’m a soldier
Even if my collar bones crush or crumble
I will never slip or stumble
I’m a soldier
These shoulders hold up so much
They wont budge, I’ll never fall or fold up
I’m a soldier
Even if my collar bones crush or crumble
I will never stumble
I saw Bob Ross lose control of his words once when he ran out of Dark Sienna. He couldn’t paint any more happy trees!
Gotta watch those artists!
Someone needs to tell this guy that references to “Peter Pan” are an automatic “street” penalty.
IT DON’T MEAN NUTHIN’
When I was a young man, and everything was strange
My country sent me off to war, in a land where I would change.
I was sent to fight a war, in a land I hardly knew
I would learn to love and hate this place, before the year was through.
And it don’t mean nuthin’, except to those that were there.
No it don’t mean nuthin’, except to those that care
No it don’t mean nuthin’.
Before to long I lost my youth, my hope and faith as well
Believing I could find some peace, inside this bit of Hell.
Fear, death and confusion, would take thier toll on me
But I stood tall and weathered all, and learned to let it be.
And it don’t mean nuthin’, except to those that were there.
No it don’t mean nuthin’, except to those that care
No it don’t mean nuthin’.
When bullets flew and young men died, on either side we lost.
To us it was to prove who’s right, but God ! at such a cost.
And now that I’ve been back, for all these many years
I think about the ones we left, and with that come the tears.
And it don’t mean nuthin’, except to those that were there.
No it don’t mean nuthin’, except to those that care
No it don’t mean nuthin’, No it don’t mean nutin’,
No it don’t mean nuthin’……………………….

Soulja Boy–another classless rapper dissing those who defend and protect all of us. Someone who never wore the uniform or served his country. Getting rich on the stupidity of those who think he has a valid “message”. Whose songs and actions are dissing good courageous Black People in and out of our Military by association.
***
And it’s not accidental that so many of our liberal / democrat / socialist / statist / marxist / communist voters, corrupt politicians, useful tool voters, and left wing “educators” support this kind of C**P. Debasing our national character is a cornerstone of the marxist / communist goal to take down the U.S.A. Class warfare, victimhood, and envy are some of our country’s enemies best tools.
***
And it’s working pretty well. This rapper should be standing in a bread line trying to figure out how to go to school or to get a real job. Instead of living large on his foul mouth and sick mind.

Yeah, because real men are like singers. (Well ok, technically he’s not a singer and apparently has no actual talent.)
Anyway coward – go to the front lines and diss anyone at random. Come on – I dare you.
Oooooooh – sunglasses, now we’re scared.
Never heard of this guy but he sounds like a real piece of work. I did however appreciate the soldier’s reply rap. The language I haven’t heard in awhile (yowzers!) but glad he took the time to reply in a style this Soulja rapper may understand.
These responses from the Army are PRICELESS!
Fanned, favorited and Forwarded to everyone I know on Facebook and Twitter.
You should too…
You mean like Mia Farrow and Sandy Duncan?
Slightly OT – it’s a never-ending supply of “stars” as self-absorbed a$$holes. Here’s an account of Gwyneth Paltrow who almost hit a jaywalker on 9/11 “humbly happy” that the resulting stare-down made someone late to work and didn’t die in the Twin Towers so Paltrow is now a hero…
Really, I would have been a PR person for the big easy money if only I didn’t mind not having a soul …
Just another Michael Moore in disquise

Wow. The guy that made the “Action Figure Therapy” video must know ILMC:

Rogue, I’m surprised at you!
The same can be said for ILMC.
One of the saddest aspects about life in the United States these days is that our society is spinning its wheels in the global war on islam (not some generic term like terrorism). We don’t even have the will to even identify the enemy. We have a large segment of our population who are willfully clueless about this reality, and these worthless jerks are equally ungrateful for the sacrifices of others that allow for this utter cluelessness. Instead, these sacrifices allow these jerks the freedoms to remain self-centered enough to focus on the pathetically unimportant, such as whitey’s continual war against people of color or some other leftist-inspired, mythological BS.
Thousands of good men lie in graves already in this war, and millions more of their countrymen couldn’t give a rats ass enough to even become educated on what it’s all about, or what their civic duty is to be positive, contributing members of society versus a real burden to other, better men.
Yup. Just one of the lyrics I found stirring in Sgt. Dunson’s video. This is why I say that rap can be a powerful medium; it’s the lightweight panderers like DeAndre who weaken the genre.
Being an Italian immigrant isn’t the same as being a member of the Mafia… so obviously the mafia never existed and had absolutely no connection with Italian immigrants.
Look at those who were promoting and encouraging the “rock and roll” performers, and contrast them with the people opposing rock and roll.
I repeat, if we had stopped the slide down that slippery slope 50 years ago, we wouldn’t have the vulgar, barbaric society we have today.
Music, movies, almost everything anymore is geared to target the most coarse and base emotional reaction. It’s either meant to induce an endorphin reaction, or an adrenal reaction. And that’s a result of the discovery that you can coarsen and debase a people by pandering to their baser appetites while starving their more mature appetites.
From the Last Boy Scout:
Gangster: What would it take to make you scream?
Bruce Willis: Play some rap music.
I take comfort in knowing these scummy cowards who try to act “all bad” couldn’t wipe the dust from our combat troops’ boots…..POS-ignore him just like KanyeWest.
In order to give inner-city boys some employment opportunities, President Obama suggested reinstating the Draft. But, his words had barely leaked out of his maw, when the left side of his brain, Valerie, reminded him that they were drawing down the military, plus, the U.S. Military was still not accepting applicants with felony convictions…and, no, job experience listed as, fighting in da ‘hood , nor “flash-mobbing,” did not qualify one for a waiver…yet.
And, in the back of the room, yet another “weighted” advisor, Trumka, chipped in; “Plus, they aren’t union members!”
TOTUS was eerily quiet….
Oh, and did I mention the concomitant drug abuse which blossomed as did the “rock and roll” culture? “Reefer Madness” was a completely baseless movie… uh-huh.
Nah… “grass” is healthier than cigarettes, we all know that.
As was HAL. Just waiting for the right moment.
I’ve always thought rappers were the most eloquent and bright people around. /sarc
Ah! The Last Boy Scout… one of my favorite movies!
No, no…you meant “medicine“, not “grass.”
Marijuana: Not an intoxicant, but a “painkiller“, as in; “Boy, only two hits offa one joint, and Barack’s feeling no pain.”
Ergo~ Marijuana = painkiller.
Simple, really.

Check out, on youtube, the Rolling Stones,featuring Lisa Fischer, on ‘Gimme Shelter’ taped live in Amsterdam. If it doesn’t get your heart beating fasting there’s something wrong so get to a Doctor.
Nope. Not me.
Hiraghm said:
If that were necessarily true, then why aren’t rap ‘artists’ citing Chuck Berry as an ‘influence’? Listen to the lyrics to “No Particular Place To Go”, I mean after all, they’re both Black Artists..?
Besides, AFAIK most of the performers of even the 60′s were about questioning authority ( not killing them? )
Wrong guy. My mistake. kentroyal5
The ‘Stones’? Well I must need to see a ‘doctor’.
