Soulja Boy to perform at Buckhead Theatre this May

The date is set for Soulja Boy’s Buckhead Theatre show on Thursday, May 11.

If you were around in 2007 when “Crack That (Soulja Boy)” hit the internet and airwaves, then you know the kind of chokehold the rapper had on everyone. “Crank Dat (Soulja Boy)” had more than 4.6 million downloads, making it the 14th best-selling digital song of all time. Not to mention, the song also went on to be nominated for a Grammy, along with several other BET award nominations and wins!

Soulja Boy’s career went on to explode from there, making several other viral hit songs, including “Pretty Boy Swag,” “Kiss Me Thru The Phone,” featuring Sammie, and “Turn My Swag On.”

The rapper and entrepreneur has been making waves in the industry since he first came on the scene and wants credit for doing so. Last year, he (sort of) joked on the “It’s Tricky With Raquel Harper” podcast about creating TikTok and wanting the head honchos to pay him. We all know Soulja didn’t create the app, but a lot of songs go viral with choreographed dances on TikTok. This is a trend Soulja says he started back in 2007 with his hit single “Crank That (Soulja Boy)” and I can’t say I disagree with him.

If you’re looking to see Soulja when he makes his way to Buckhead Theatre, you can grab your presale tickets starting Wednesday, March 8 until Thursday, March 9 at 10 p.m. General sale tickets will be up for grabs Friday, March 10 at 10 a.m.
