Several months ago rapper Soulja Boy was faced with the unfortunate news of the passing of his brother and like many this was a devastating and life changing moment for the platinum recording artist. After the dust had settled and he was able to come to grips at how he was going to move on with his life, he finally found someone who could make him happy. He has been spotted around the Atlanta area with the former Crime Mob member and solo recording artist Diamond who his has openly admitted his love for her. Here is what he had to say about his brother’s death and his new relationship:
“Family loss for any person is hard,” Soulja Boy said. “It just was hard for me because, you know how that goes; you just want to be with them one last time. It w
as unexpected, I was messed up. I’m still messed up about that to this day. My family, everybody was financially straight when the funeral came. My father he was really messed up about it, and that created more drama and problems in the family. My other brother threatened to take his life, and that just really had my family just real messed up.”
“It’s real hard for me but I just been trying to do the best that I can,” he continued. “I wanted to be with my family and not do this music but we got an understanding. I have to keep going for my fans and keep doing music and movie to provide for them [my family]. But it’s just like man, once that happens it makes you question a lot of things. Everybody gotta go one day; I just look at it like I just want to make him [my brother] proud.”
On his love for rapper Diamond:
“I feel like she’s definitely that,” Soulja said of Diamond being a pillar of strength for him. “She’s an added plus just for me, period. She supports me. She loves me. Everybody needs love; everybody needs that support in their corner. She’s definitely a pillar of strength in my corner. I don’t need negativity around me. With all the stuff that’s going on with me as being Soulja Boy and my personal life, and in the world in general, the whole world needs love.”
We wish the two much love as well as send our prayers out to his entire family.
