The internet has been buzzing with news today, and amidst the flurry of headlines, one story has dominated the conversation: the legal woes facing rapper Soulja Boy. According to a representative from Soulja Boy’s team,
“The headlines and story are false. There is no document to back up those statements made by Blast News. We appreciate the media and wish that BLAST News would do more research to confirm that he was not ordered to pay 10 million dollars to a Jan Doe.
No judge has ordered this claim and Soulja has not been in court or seen a judge to order these claims. We ask that journalists from BLAST News do their diligence and report accurate information to the public as these allegations can tarnish an artist’s brand.
Soulja Boy has been working hard on his new project and managing his new store on Melrose called SODMG. As an entrepreneur, he looks forward to dropping more music to his fans and continuing to motivate future young entrepreneurs.“
The Blast had reported that Soulja Boy was ordered to pay $10 million in damages relating to a sexual battery lawsuit from 2021.
According to The Blast, they received documents stating that the rapper must pay $5 million in pain, suffering, and inconvenience, along with $5 million in emotional distress, totaling $10 million in damages.
Soulja Boy’s representative has refuted these claims, stating that there is no documentation to support The Blast’s assertions. The representative emphasized that Soulja Boy has not been involved in any legal proceedings related to the alleged lawsuit, nor has he been ordered to pay any damages.
