Editorial Reviews

Soulja Boy Tellem's highly anticipated follow-up to Souljboytellem.com (Collipark Music/Interscope). Soulja Boy Tell'em hit the ground running promoting his debut album which led to record setting performances for ringtones (more than 5.3 million downloads), YouTube views (over 300,000,000 views) and an incredible seven-week run at the top of the "Hot 100" chart with the Grammy-nominated single "Crank That (Soulja Boy).Such staggering stats easily made Soulja Boy Tell'em the top new artist of 2008.

Soulja Boy Tell'em follows this mega success with the highly anticipated iSouljaboytellem, produced by Soulja Boy Tell'em, with assistance from super-producer Mr. Collipark (Young Jeezy, Yin Yang Twins, Pitbull) and Polow Da Don (Ludacris, Fergie, Jamie Foxx, Ciara). The first single, "Birdwalk," follows the successful formula mined by "Crank That (Soulja Boy)," with another sure-fire infectious sing-along chant. "Birdwalk" hits the airwaves this week, with the accompanying video scheduled to debut shortly thereafter. Other stand-out tracks include "Yamaha Mama" (produced by fellow Atlanta native Polow Da Don), featuring Sean Kingston, and the street anthem "Turn My Swag On" which will be accompanied by a viral music video. "I'm more than ready to release the follow-up to `souljaboytellem.com', I know my fans are ready too." comments Soulja Boy Tell'em. "I have so much more in store this time around with a shoe and clothing deal, an animated series and some special surprises I can't talk about yet. I'm going to continue to keep up the momentum through 2009, so plan on seeing me all over the internet on your favorite websites and blogs with my new videos and updates on where I'm at and what I am doing. You are not going to be able to get away from Soulja Boy Tell'em...YUUUAAAAA!"

Soulja Boy Tell'em's high visibility enabled the rapper to sign a major deal with Yums Shoes to personally design his own sneakers under the company's "Block Star" line. The first line of sneakers will roll out in November, 2008, and feature a distinctive street feel with colorful graffiti art emblazoned on the soles of each sneaker. The deal also features clothing apparel specifically designed by Soulja Boy Tell'em in conjunction with Yums' designer and one of the south's biggest graffiti artists Tex. In addition, look out for an animated series created by Soulja Boy Tell'em that will be launching on his Soulja Boy Tell'em website in November. --This text refers to the Vinyl edition.

1.0 out of 5 stars not just a "hater", May 19, 2009

1st of all... i kinda like "Kiss Me Through the Phone"... not because it's a well written song, it's garbage, but because after hearing it 5 times within an hour on a road trip u almost hafta like it. That being said this CD sucks. I dont care what anybody says about him doing everything himself, good for him, i respect that but, he's terrible. He (unfortunately) represents the new generation of rap, which is dance beats, dance hooks and mindless lyrics. No matter what is said about how bad it is, people are gonna continue to buy this rubbish because this is what they are growing up with. Anybody who would even attempt to compare NAS to this little kid is a complete and utter idiot. NAS is a legend, Soulja Boy is an easily forgettable artist with about 23 seconds left on his 15 minutes of fame.

1.0 out of 5 stars The dubious return of hip-hop's biggest embarrassment, December 17, 2008

This review is from: iSouljaBoyTellem (Audio CD)

Already responsible for the album that has the lowest overall rating of any mass-reviewed album on Amazon, it is the height of gall that Soulja Boy would even consider releasing another one. Unfortunately (but perhaps predictably) everything that made his first album so unbearable has not been shelved for this album. The mind-numbing backgrounds and his immature, monotonous rapping style are as bad now as they were then, and like his first album, much of the general theme of this album revolves around such things as his appetite for money and designer-brand apparel, and his dangerously overinflated ego when it comes to girls. Vulgarity has unfortunately not been forgotten, either. On "Wit My Yums On" several references are made to a certain males-only body part, and "Hey You There" is simply gross. In it, Soulja Boy talks about the supposed joy of smelling his farts, and also about having his "sticky body" licked. And why does just about every song begin with his name being uttered? Everybody knows his damn name already, and I'd really like to forget it, thank you.

Absolutely disgusting from beginning to end.

1.0 out of 5 stars One Hit Wonders do NOT need a second album!, December 19, 2008

The best thing about the 80s was that 1 hit wonders KNEW that's what they were, so they didn't try to milk their 5 minutes of fame with 2nd and 3rd albums. This CD is AWFUL. I'm not even sure the first CD was any good, but at least it wasn't a FORCED attempt at turning 5 minutes into 10 minutes of fame. BOO! Don't waste your money. There will NOT be any hits from this CD without a huge push - with money - from the label.
