Soulja Boy?s delusions of grandeur have given a new definition to the meaning of the phrase. The rapper keeps a tally of goals that he hopes to accomplish but the young Soulja has set the bar almost into outer space. First on his list is to tour with Rick Ross and Eminem. Then he wants to collaborate with Jay-Z, Kanye West and Lil Wayne for his upcoming album ?The DeAndre Way?. Do those guys even know him? The delusional rapper boasted to reporters ?Mark my words: This album will go platinum. It will be the best album I’ve put out so far. I don’t want no bullshit. I want, from start to finish, classic #1 records. I’m not playing.?

Heidi Montag?s latest single may not be bad but that doesn?t mean that all of my doubts are gone. ?The Hills? star is currently recording a new album and she wants people to take her craft seriously. Heidi said ?I just pretty much live and breathe in the studio? I’ve never had an album. This is my first album. I’ve wanted to do music since I could talk? This is the biggest dream of my life.? She even went on to compare herself to Lil Wayne saying ?I just love making fun music, like Lil Wayne. He’ll do a rock song, and then he’ll do a rap song. I get to choose my own songs. It’s something I love doing. I’m having so much fun doing it, and it’s not too much pressure. It’s more on my own.? She even said that she would love to record a duet with the rapper ? as well as Spencer Pratt.
The self-proclaimed greatest rapper alive, Lil Wayne, became audience-proclaimed most bullshit rapper alive when he stood up 8,000 fans at the Blue Cross Arena in Rochester, New York recently. After he found the sound system not up to his standards, the rapper excused himself from teh show along with co-headliner Piles. What a diva! Fans were promised a refund though. Fellow rapper Ludacris came to the show?s rescue as best he could despite the bad sound system. His set was reportedly smooth and professional proving that someone who isn?t the world?s greatest can overcome less than stellar equipment. And by the way, Eminem was proclaimed the world?s greatest rapper alive.
