• Soulja Boy Releases 'Swag The Mixtape' Featuring Chief Keef, Migos

    It's been a long time since the late 2000s when Soulja Boy was putting out hit records like "Crank That (Soulja Boy)," Turn My Swag On" and "Kiss Me Through the Phone." Since the release of his third studio album, 'The DeAndre Way' in 2010, Soulja has been dropping a steady flow of mixtapes and has expanded his business and musical interests into a little EDM and fashion. However, nothing has really stuck. Earlier this year, he released his fourth studio album, 'Loyalty,' on Universal to mixed reviews and now has another piece of work to show in 2015. The "Hurricane" rapper just released his new project, 'Swag The Mixtape,' which has features from the likes of Migos, Chief Keef, Calico Jonez, Johnny Cinco and more.

  • 'LHHH' Nia Riley Splits from Soulja Boy, Who's Been Spotted with Karrine Steffans

    It looks like another couple from "Love & Hip Hop Hollywood" has bit the dust. After years of an on/off relationship, Nia Riley has finally gotten tired of trying to convince Soulja Boy to commit. Rumors of a split started circulating last week, and after Soulja posted a photo of himself with former fling Karrine Steffans online, Riley stepped up to confirm the breakup. Obviously this is one of those couples who flip-flops a lot, but maybe they are better off apart. Generally, if you spend years debating whether or not a relationship can work, that is your biggest sign that it is probably not going to. Ironically, on the last episode of "LHHH," Riley was getting ready to move in with Soulja but he found an excuse to postpone it. He was about to venture out on a two-week tour and he claimed not to want Riley in his house alone without security. He claimed it was a security issue and not a case of cold feet. We have to wonder about that now that we know they have split just a few months after the filming of that scene.
