Petition Started To Ban Soulja Boy’s Music From Military Bases
The firestorm surrounding Soulja Boy’s song “Let’s Be Real” continues. The 21-year old rapper angered many military veterans with the line “f**k the army troops” and now an online petition has been started to ban the artist’s music and memorabilia from military bases.
Reports This is 50:
“I am writing in reference to the rap artist Soulja Boy and his recent single “Let’s Be Real.” He has caused a great uproar in the military community with his lyrics from this song, which are listed above. Many Americans, civilians and military personnel, have requested that you please discontinue any and all of Soulja Boy’s memorabilia,” the petition reads. “In doing so, you would not only earn the respect of the American audience but you would also create a peace among all Americans today. Military personnel have become greatly offended with the previously mentioned song and removing said artist would ease a lot of the tension and violence that has been created. Please take careful consideration in the request of the American people as it can effect the future of the American people and generations to come. I send my greatest appreciation for your time in reading this letter and hope that our request could be fulfilled. Thank You and God Bless”
Former infantry sergeant Leo Dunson, told TMZ that Soulja’s song is “the most ignorant thing I’ve heard in so long.” Dunson released a diss track aimed at Soulja under the name Sgt. Dunson called “Change Your Name.”
And now…
This is EbenGregory.com…telling you I co-sign the message.
Petition Soulja? LOL! Petition some of the congressmen.
Are you all being serious? SB is the deadly ignorant, arrogant, and rich combination whilst simultaneously sucking at… pretty much everything. Nonetheless, look at that statement, especially these:
- “In doing so… you would also create a peace among all Americans today.”
- “Military personnel have become greatly offended with the… song… and removing [SB] would EASE A LOT OF THE TENSION AND VIOLENCE THAT HAS BEEN CREATED.”
- “Please take careful consideration .. it can effect [sic] the future of the American people and generations to come.”
1. Really? SB is the cause of the current state of the US? Peace across America can be obtained by eliminating SB? lol Wow… He’s bad, but c’mon, a little perspective, here.
2. Tension and violence has been created by a SB song? Because MPs were greatly offended by it? Are you shitting me? Now, if you believe the author, removal of SB will result in: (a) peace across America; (b) easing a lot of tension and violence created from his song’s causing offense to the MPs; and… wait for it…
3. … (c) The future of the American people AND GENERATIONS TO COME will be affected by the presence or absence of SB’s music. Ha!
Now THAT is over-dramatization at its finest. Some fall for it hook line and sinker. Similar to Fox watchers swallowing the propaganda/media hype surrounding the reasoning behind the never-ending wars… whatever you wanna call it…
