Book Soulja Boy
Soulja Boy topped the Billboard Hot 100 for seven weeks with "Crank That (Soulja Boy)," the self-released 2007 debut single whose dance craze swept the country and earned a Grammy nomination for Best Rap Song. Born DeAndre Way in Chicago and raised in Atlanta and Batesville, Mississippi, he built his audience online, becoming one of the first artists to break a hit through grassroots social media and digital marketing. After Collipark Music, an imprint of Interscope Records, re-released the song, his debut album, Souljaboytellem.com (2007), reached number four on the Billboard 200 and produced "Soulja Girl" and "Yahhh!" His second album, iSouljaBoyTellEm (2008), delivered the top-20 Hot 100 singles "Turn My Swag On" and "Kiss Me thru the Phone," featuring Sammie, and The DeAndre Way (2010) added the top-40 hit "Pretty Boy Swag." He then left Interscope for an independent career through his own label, Stacks on Deck Entertainment, releasing a long stream of projects including Loyalty, Big Soulja, Young Drako, the Big Draco series, First to Do It, Soulja Season, Swag Season, The Influence, Draco Season and DRIP (2026). His shows revolve around the hits that defined late-2000s ringtone rap.
