One thing Soulja Boy did extremely well was bring the masses together in 2007 to learn the simple dance moves that went along with his first song. Almost everyone was impressed by his single “Crank That" when it first dropped — even people who didn’t consider themselves to be fans of rap music. Since then, Soulja Boy has been continually hitting the studio to make new music for his fans.

He even took part in a legendary Verzuz battle against Bow Wow in front of a live audience. The hip-hop stars went head-to-head, showing off both of their greatest hits to see who would come out on top. Since Soulja Boy has made such a name for himself in the music industry, it’s safe to say his net worth is pretty impressive.

This is what Soulja Boy has to say about his income.

In an Instagram live stream from October 2021, Soulja Boy spent time flexing his cash and assets for the camera. He was chilling in a private train car holding stacks of money while speaking to his fans. The curse word-filled statement ended with him making this claim: “I’ve been making $100K a day. These [n-words] broke. I'm the [n-word] with the bands.”

Later on in the live stream, he tried to clarify by explaining that he earns $2–3 million per month. He then switched up his claim again and said that he actually take homes closer to $7 million per month. His math and numbers weren’t making the most sense, but with his net worth of $30 million, the occasional income exaggeration probably isn’t the biggest deal ever.
