Yo! Raps recently touched base with Soulja Boy to talk about his nomination in the Internet Hustler Of The Year category. “I think I should win the Yo! Award because I know Diddy is a hustler and everyone else in the category that is nominated. But I think I’m the youngest that is doing it right now, ” said Soulja Boy. “I would expect Diddy and everyone else in the category to be hustlers. I accomplished most of my success between the age of 16 and 17, when I had Crank Dat, Soulja Girl, my first album platinum, nominated for a Grammy and all the different things that I accomplished.”
