Soulja Boy Catches Heat For Saying He Was "The First Rapper On BAPE, Period"

Soulja Boy Catches Heat For Saying He Was “The First Rapper On BAPE”

Soulja Boy has been relentlessly demanding credits for being the first rapper to do so many things. While some have been false, many others were backed with receipts.

Not long after claiming he’s the first rapper with an iPhone and also providing receipts, Big Draco has made another contentious claim and Twitter isn’t having it.

During an interview with Complex, Soulja made new claims, this time about the fashion brand BAPE (A Bathing Ape), but the public was quick to let him know that the Notorious B.I.G. and The Neptunes were the icons behind putting BAPE on the map.

“I was the first rapper on BAPE period,” he said. “I understand what they did and it’s respectable, but as far as the culture, as far as internet, as far as fashion, as far as the streets, the trap, the trenches, the kids and everything that matter, that was all off of the first album.”

He mentioned his attire in the music video for “Crank That,” a visual that got “millions and millions of views.” Soulja added, “They know who started it. They know who set the trend.”

However, folks online have since been reacting to the claim, calling ‘cap’ on it and also digging out receipts that the likes of Pharrell Williams and Notorious BIG wore it before the inception of Soulja Boy’s rap career.
