Teen rap star Soulja Boy Tell 'Em recently held an informal discussion with a group of friends where he said it was rap veteran Nas, if anyone, who was responsible for hip-hop's "death."
In a recent video, the Atlanta-bred emcee tackled the past claims by Ice-T and others who said Soulja Boy single handedly destroyed the state of hip-hop and argued that the Queens, New York rapper should be taken to task for rap's so-called destruction instead of him.
"Real talk, the n*gga that killed hip-hop was Nas," Soulja Boy said. "He came out publicly and said, 'Hip-Hop is dead,' and then after that everybody started saying hip-hop is dead. 'Cause think about it, if Nas would have never said hip-hop is dead, then motherf*ckers would have never thought anything about it."
Referring to the title of Nas' 2006 album, Hip-Hop Is Dead, Soulja Boy said the rap veteran's claims ultimately impacted the careers of hip-hop artists.
"He probably wasn't feeling how the music was going," Soulja Boy added. "He came out and killed everybody's money. He killed his own career with that sh*t. He shoulda thought about that sh*t though."
