Producers got beats ? Want Soulja to do a verse on them ? Send them to beatsforsoulja@gmail.com
Fresh off a recently mixtape release Soulja is already back in the studio working on his year ender mixtape. Soulja spoke briefly about the mixtape, and the reason behind its entitlement. Soulja says "I've done pretty well in 2010, I've had alot of beefs, and some epiphanies along my journey. I've resolved a few, and some are still going, but just as those I am too. And, even when I wanted to quit, there were alot of people who kept pushing me. So for them I keep going, and trying to get after this dream. And, if it wasn't for those people I would have never came up with the entitlement of this mixtape. Cause its exactly what it is a gift in the time of giving from me to them. I chose Christmas Eve so it would give me time to work on collaborations with other artist, and give the people something to look forward to in 2011."
Its already been acknowledge that a few songs that didn't make it to the "Black Friday" mixtape will show up on "From Me to You" along with some songs that is to be released on c"I-10 to 985" collaboration mixtape between Soulja and HB.
As the first day of December rolls in, from status updates of Twitter, and Facebook. Soulja is at work on the mixtape as of right now...
Hopefully some snippets or songs will be released until the mixtape drops
After its Thursday release "Black Friday" sat itself in stone. One hour into release it hit a 200 download marker. Now a full day after its release, and enough twitter promotion. "Black Friday" has set it self as the first mixtape of Soulja's to hit 1,000 downloads in a day. Soulja spoke on it via his Facebook saying "I don't know what it is, I guess people digged the name of the mixtape or whatever, but I'm grateful. "Black Friday" was a gift from me to you. But, the real year ender mixtape will be from me to the world."
Again, Soulja is focused on work, he also announced that the "I-10 to 985" mixtape is back in motion, so we will hear some new stuff from Soulja & HB once again.

Early Thursday morning Soulja began tweeting about a mixtape via his twitter. On his facebook page he also talked about the mixtape in more content. Saying "This mixtape is a nice mixture of what I've been working on, I think if it was to be my year ender mixtape, I would place it as that, but its not. I'm giving a home to the tracks I been releasing, and some that I haven't put out."
Thursday evening Soulja announced that the name of secret mixtape will be entitled "Black Friday" due to that date of release. Soulja says "I wanted to name this mixtape "Black Friday" because I'm born on Friday the 13th, and what better day to put out a mixtape with the name of the day that it is."
The mixtape will be posted at 12am EST time for free download. Soulja has already pointed out the mixtape features Yung Rocky, L3GEND, The Kid, and Meta4ical Click.
Just as Soulja promised that he would give the fans the music that he has been working on for a while for the mixtape with HB. Soulja has released another track to the masses this time featuring SDIMG artist L3GEND, produced by Big Dawg Beatz. Soulja and L3GEND does this track for the special ladies in their life. Shoutout to them for bring theses two artist together on a track, and going hard on it. Listen to the new track "She's the One" below.

But, as a short hand replacement. Rocky steps up to the plate, and delivers a hot verse to "Fresher" which was released as one of the snippnets of "I-10 to 985" which is the collaboration mixtape with HB, and Soulja. So due to alot of interruptions going on in HB's personal life. Soulja will not hold the people from hearing the great music, that has been chosen to be part of the mixtape.
Recently Soulja said "I know there is alot going on with HB right now. And, its really hard for him to work on the tracks we chose for the mixtape, but I hate to keep this good music from the ears of the listeners, when I promised them it. So for the time being, some songs will be released with other artist instead of HB, but when everything is good. We will have our versions for the mixtape, its all for the love of the music, and the love of the people."
Check out the new track below

Early Friday morning Soulja dropped a seem to be diss song towards someone. No names was mentioned, but it seems as someone has made the calm Soulja hostile. Soulja simply said these few words on his facebook page "I hear, and see everything people say. I just never say nothing, but when I speak, I'm suppose to be heard. I'm never gonna gas myself up to be something I'm not. And, hate from people I'm well aware of. So I can handle it."
The track is called "Over Ambitious" or "Ambition" which ever you prefer. What is distinct about this track is Soulja's use of terms in lines like "You ain't 50, I ain't Rule. But, I'll clap back for real" it seems like its really drastic. To hear more of the track check below. In time we'll find out who the track is geared towards.

As of now Soulja is filming for the short movie. For a few label mates, they are behind this idea 100% and possibly with do the same. Soulja also said "This is something I think all artist should do for their fans, to show there true artistry. Them at there most varnable time, when they don't have time to write something down, and rehearse it. As a artist practicing my freestlying, or just in the spur of the moment skill is what I think keeps me sharp as a recording artist. Its something that happens natural and spontaneous, and I just hope I'll be able to capture it all on film"
When the short movie will be released has not been announced, but it shall be sometime before the beginning of December.

Since the beginning of 2010 Soulja has been showing the world that his time has come. Coming off the release of his 2009 anticipated "Afterbirth" album. Soulja released a deluxe edition, and a Chopped and Screwed version of the album. Even with the great success of his previous album Soulja was ready to release his follow up "Street Creditability: The Second Coming" album. But, with alot of problems in production, the album did not reach its first announced release date. But, instead of a album Soulja released the now infamous "I am the Present" mixtape on the original date of the album.
Even after the success of his album, and his mixtape. Soulja announced his follow up "I am the Present 2" mixtape with label artist L3GEND, and The Kid. But, that also came to a halt with the acceptation of L3GEND, and the Kid was working with Meta4ical Click on the now available "Hit List" mixtape. Soulja continue pushing through with another release date of his "Street Creditability: The Second Coming" album. And, with more complication on the album, it was announced that it wouldn't reach its release date.
But, as of recently Soulja has been working with FLA artist HB on a new mixtape entitled "I-10 to 935" and the album destine for a early 2011 release date. Along with working on the mixtape with HB. Soulja will be working on a mixtape with Songwriters Inc. And, with the first song being released performed by Misz Redd, the mixtape is in full motion also.
So it seems as Soulja is a busy man, and will continue to give the fans what they been wanting for the last year. Lets hope he does it with the success he's had on his previous projects.
For a few years now Soulja has been working with the infamous Songwriter Inc crew. A group of ghostwriters of some of the hottest songs from unsigned to signed artist. As of now Soulja as officially announced his affiliation and the Songwriter Inc crew has come out the shadows with opening up their own twitter.
For the announcement Soulja contacted songstress Misz Redd for the accompany of the new Songwriters Inc mixtape that will be released, with the song being the first true single of it. Both Soulja and Misz Redd collaborated on the arrangement of the song while Soulja takes credit for the lyrics, and production credit goes to Yung Exclusive.
The song came out a hit when it was released 4 days ago. Hopefully the Songwriters Inc mixtape will not affect Soulja's other works, but only up his work. So expect more from Songwriters Inc & Soulja in the future along with Misz Redd.
Just yesterday via twitter Soulja posted that he has started work on the anticipated "Street Creditability: The Second Coming" album. The tweet read "Just finished up a track for the upcoming album, my homie J. Cole laced me with gas, I brought the fire." Moments after that tweet hit the time-lines of many followers, Soulja then tweeted "I might not make the October 26 release date or I just might lol, with me you never know, but it really depends on the production, I have the material."
Soulja returns with another version of the already hit famous "Going In" now with SDIMG artist L3GEND featuring the second verse. A version with HB and Big Griff was released earlier this week. Looks like a mega mix maybe coming in the future to feature both SDIMG and CFB artist.
Keep a open ear out for that maybe, sometime in the future, but check out how L3GEND blessed the second verse of "Going In" can't help, but say its banger number 2 for "Going In" while it tears up the charts via Reverbnation.
Soulja just recently entered his own production for a producer entry. Soulja released the statement "I'm not really a producer, I like to get in the studio, and play around on the boards. No trap music, I like to make laid back beats, mostly R&B, I was feeling this acapella decided to play around with it, and enter. I'm learning more about production, so I can persue the producer tag, and add it to my resume, but music is music, and I love it all, so I got to be in all parts of it."
Question is Soulja becoming a producer, check out the production on the video above.
The relationship between FLA rapper HB and Soulja has grown tremendously. So in the wake of HB and Soulja working on the upcoming "I-10 to 985" mixtape. HB releases his new solo project "Underrated" which features Soulja on it. So by all means its right that the support is shown for this mixtape. The mixtape also features artist Amoure, Flu, Ace, and Big Griff. Big Griff recently made his second appearance on "Going In" with Soulja and HB for the "I-10 to 985" mixtape.
Soulja has already spoken on working with HB on a second project, that includes the SDIMG and CFB family. The upcoming project will be called "Strength in Numbers" which as previously said will include artist from SDIMG and CFB. This project has not been put in motion, but will soon be released once the "I-10 to 985" mixtape is cleared, and released.
So show some support to HB on his new mixtape, and expect to hear more from both HB, and Soulja.
Its been talked about for so long of the release of Soulja's follow-up "Street Credibility: The Second Coming" album, but once again, its been pushed back due to production issues. In the placement of the album, a long awaited mixtape collaboration between Soulja and Florida rapper H.B. will be released. Entitled "I-10 to 985" around the same time frame, that the album was to be released.
Soulja, and H.B have been collaborative before with the track "Fed Up" featuring Amoure, they plan to keep the fire burning with this mixtape, what it may lead into, no one knows until the release of the mixtape. Soulja already announced that H.B is featured on a remake of the street anthem "Everywhere" track. Which has 2 counterpart remixes out already.
When "Street Crediblity: The Second Coming" will be released, that information has been yet to be announced. When asked about it Soulja released this statement "I'm real disappointed that I couldn't release the album on time yet again, disappointing to myself, and I know to my fans, but I want the project to be perfect, and that it will be when it is released."
Let's hope Soulja can get it together, and release his album, but the people will look forward to this mixtape from him, and H.B, and whatever may come out in the future for them.

Sometime ago, a new album project was announce along with the announcement came the artwork, and artist features that would be on the album. Well now a date has been set for the album. It was announce via Twitter, that the release date will be Oct. 26, 2010. As of now, no singles have been released from the album, but with the date set, hopefully some will be released. So the public can get a good preview of what the album is going to sound like when its completed.
Its been some interesting years for myself, as long as I've been hustling to get where I'm at now. I never though I'll feel so empty to make something from the dirt that I was handed when I first started. It went from Fly Boy Ent to Street Dreams Inc, and that move was for the better, cause once we switched up we saw how much influenced we had on alot of artist, and labels on this underground level.
But, sometimes its worth taking a moments breath to see what I've accomplished, and to look behind you and not see that the people who started the journey with you, not make it. It is truly hurtful, cause I started off with myself, and my boy Yung Pimpin' then I added on Ca$h followed by 7-Digitz then Seiko, Rocky and L3GEND, then Daze, and J. Cole on da Beat, Leira, then D. LE3. And to see that half of those people named are not even with the team no more, it truly hurts. The family is no more a family we fell apart, and began to call other places home, but I believe what they forgot unlike what I forgot is that home is where it all begun.
That was at the bottom. I'm gonna represent SDIMG until the casket fold on me, and at times I wish I had those kinda riders, and sometimes I believe I do, then at times reality sets in ,and I see different. But, that comes with the game, and being at the bottom is just like being at the top, no where is comfortable for long, and you have to move on to the next place.
Although, I wish I could bring all my team back, and attack the game like it was planned. That's something on God, and the future knows, and for me to await. All I can do is put in work for the label, and still walk in 10 toes down screaming "SDIMG TIL I DIE." That's what it is and that's what its gonna be.

Always wanted a shirt or some kind of merchandise from Soulja or SDIMG. Well it's work in progress at the moment. Already the prototypes designs are being sent into mass production for the upcoming "Signature Soulja Collection" release.
You may ask why or what is the "Signature Soulja Collection" merchandise ? To answer fully its quotes, and designs that were made by Soulja or used in a song. The first to come off the line is from "Everywhere" single featuring Taz. It will be only available in shirt, and black color, in the front it quotes the chorus "I be everywhere, everywhere the trap be, I be everywhere the hood be, Posted on the corner thats where you can find me" and the back shows the "Signature Soulja Collection" logo
The release date of the "I Be Everywhere" shirt is July 30, 2010. After the debut release the continuation of the line will go on sale numbers. Hopefully the line will expand into all the prototype designs that were drawn up. So expect alot from Soulja , and SDIMG in the coming fall, winter season.

Its been without saying that the newly re-born Soulja Corleone was here to stay. With some help from Fly Line Graphiks, its been scheduled in stone, that the Soulja Corleone movement is real. What didn't make it to the cover work of "Street Credibility: The Second Coming" album. Awaits below for your viewing pleasure, for the first time ever.
The awaited remix of the infamous "Everywhere" now with a verse from SDIMG recording artists L3GEND, and Yung Rocky. Check the remix out below with download link.
Its been a known factor in music, that a artist has to have their persona added to the music. So with that in mind, the next couple of tracks will have just that. The persona of the reborn Soulja Corleone, mixed in with the heart of the old Soulja. Its a must see, and listen type of event, cause when it happens. It'll be quick, and painless.
For future features, there are a few in mind that comes right off the top. And, others that can't be said because of the open availability to work with Soulja is wide.
But, to name a few of the artist, and producers that are on the intermediate list are unsigned artist HB. A mixtape was suppose to be in the works mid last year, but due to so much scheduling on the release of the "Afterbirth" project, and other label artist projects. And, the busy schedules of both artist. The collaborative project never happen, but most definitely something will happen before 2010 is out between Soulja and HB along with Amoure.

Its been in thought for a while, how the next album was going to be presented to the public. The answer has come in the form of digital distribution. When "Street Credibility: The Second Coming" is released it will be distributed through 3 distributors. All in tides with Street Dreams Inc Music Group, but the album will not just be released in digital form it will also be available in hard copy form. For the people who like to actually hold a album in their hands, and read the booklet that comes along with that.

It seems like a while, that no one has heard any new music from Soulja, and now the wait is soon over. The new album that's been pushed back, and shelved is in the works, and soon to be released. After the release of "I am the Present" mixtape, a sequel mixtape was promised. Which at the time was suppose to feature SDIMG artist The Kid, and L3GEND along with Soulja.
