[Arab] Back in the day when we used to record
We had to use a little microphone
That would be probably like ten dollars,
A little headset
But we still just going *** it
And we put it on the internet and people loved it
[Tyrell] Soulja Boy had visited all fifty states
He went to Paris, London, France, Germany
Going from struggling to riding in a Chrysler 300
To riding in Ferraris and Lamborghinis overnight
I want to do it again.
[Miami Mike] See a lot of people didn't know
That when we were on the road that
Our home town basically wasn't supporting us
So we were always going out of town doing shows
Like in North Carolina, Chicago, LA,
Sweet 16 parties in Miami
We were getting anywhere from three to five thousand a show
Sometimes ten, and he was putting it in his backpack and saving it
And one day he got caught at school with like $90,000 cash
And they thought he was selling drugs and stuff
Like what is a sixteen year old kid doing with $80,000?
[FLX] Man he just didn't give a ***
I remember when I was first shooting him he used to curse
Every other word was a cuss word
We couldn't use like-
Like I'd say about seventy-five percent of that footage
I know you looked at that footage
[350] The female fans, they're like the worst ones
Like most of they guys they're just laid back
Trying to be cool, you know, want a hand shake
Maybe ask for a picture
But the females, they would be so carried away
They would be screaming
Trying to jump on the stage and grab him
Like Ah! Soulja Boy, Soulja Boy!
[Big D] I love the bus a lot
Our bus really doesn't be as foul
I would say like, I don't know about anybody else's bus
But we definitely have rules on what's done in the restroom
I always worry about him
When he first got started
I sit down with Mike
I told him this wasn't about the money
It was about my son and Arab's safety
Making sure they could get home safe
Making sure you've got good people around them
And good security at all times
And because he's my son and money can't replace that
