AceShowbiz - Fame apparently takes its toll on Soulja Boy. The rapper who has been accused of stealing a stage name and impregnating a 19-year-old girl is now hit with a plagiarism issue.
A rapper group named The Ohio Boyz claimed that Soulja Boy ripped one of the songs that they posted on their MySpace page called 'Swag' and "changed da beat up a lil". They told Bellerstatus.net that Soulja visited their page and posted a comment saying how he liked the song. "He had basically tweaked the beat and had the exact hook on (his version)," the Ohio Boyz said. "We've had the song on our page for months."
When contacted, Soulja Boy and his camp allegedly refused to respond to the accusal. However, Soulja later on posted on his own MySpace entry saying that he never heard of the song. He wrote, "I never heard of ya'll n**gers in my life, or your 'Swag' song. I swear to God I never even heard that s**t on ya'll page. Kill that noise."
Soulja is also dissing MediaTakeOut.com for publishing reports that he has become a father after impregnating a 19-year-old girl. However, on better news, he has been named the first artist to sell more than 3 million downloads of his hit 'Crank That' on-line.
