He’s a genius man; it’s like catching Michael Jackson before he actually hit wax. It’s that kind of talent. Really?
This statement comes from Mr. Collipark multi-platinum producer who had a lot to do with Soulja Boy Tell’em (born Deandre Way) becoming the underage celebrity he is today. So, is it like a father proclaiming his son to be the best or is this simply talent?
Soulja Boy moved to Atlanta at age 6, when the “A” was responsible for turning local artists into national superstars. He says this caused him to take ques from his surroundings despite not having the ching ching or bling. He and his little brother were being raised by his mother who is a single parent.
In 8th grade he moved with his father who had more income, Soulja boy feels if he didn’t make this move, he wouldn’t be where he is at today. He started with a simple song being posted on a website that allows users to rate comment and download your music. Moving back to Atlanta in 2004 he hooked up with Mr. Collipark and made a promise to his self that he would help his mother out. He performed his first show at 15.
MJ I think not, just a kid who still enjoys song and dance.
