Soulja Boy Says He Influenced Rappers To Wear BAPE

After getting out of prison in 2019, it seemed like Soulja Boy took a break from his social media antics.

But that changed in recent months because he's gotten at Drake for giving credit to Bow Wow for influencing his career and not him. The "Crank That" creator also got into an online dispute with WWE star Randy Orton back in February.

Soulja is now claiming to have influenced rappers to wear BAPE, the streetwear band that became popular in the early 2000s.

"I made these n*ggaz wanna wear BAPE," he wrote.

Tory Lanez is one of the people who responded and said someone else influenced him to wear the Japanese fashion brand.

"The video for "hustler Muzik" when Wayne was running from the cops is what made me wanna wear Bape," he wrote in the comments.
