The "Crank That" star responded to a video of an interviewer asking the hypothetical question to a group of women.

Big Draco's upset, and it's because a lot of people just gave a disrespectful answer to a hypothetical question about him. Moreover, Soulja Boy blasted people who, when asked by an interviewer, picked $250 in food stamps over having dinner with him. Furthermore, the clip comes from 856 Entertainment's Instagram page, which seems to often do fun content like this. Last Wednesday (March 22), they published a video of a host asking a group of women to choose between those options. Hilariously, all of them picked the food stamps, with some not elaborating and other dissing him for various reasons.

Of course, the "Crank That" star and self-proclaimed (yet often respected) pioneer wasn't happy with that. In fact, he took to Instagram to unleash a rant against these people who turned down a meal with him. To be fair, maybe they wouldn't pick dinner with a lot of other rappers if given the choice. As such, it's ultimately kind of funny to watch the Atlanta artist react this way over a viral video, but it can't be denied that it must sting a bit.

People Pick Food Stamps Over Dinner With Soulja Boy, And He Wasn't Pleased

"Y'all n***as are gon' die broke, broke-a** n***a," he ranted and repeated to the camera. "F**k-a** n***a. Y'all some broke-a** n***as. Y'all couldn't go out to dinner with me if y'all wanted to." Not only that, but he also blasted the state of New Jersey, which the Instagram page in question is based in. In fact, he threatened to blow it up, à la Chief Keef's classic banger "Faneto." Overall, it's a pretty comical reaction to a "$500K or dinner with Jay-Z" kind of question. That sparked its own heated debates and gut-busting takes, although answers were nowhere near as unanimous.

Still, Soulja does deserve a lot more flowers than he gets, at least from what social media typically indicates. For example, a lot of people recently clowned his Rolling Loud performance, which apparently didn't have a lot of people hyped up. However, fan testimonies and alternate clips alike suggest that many had a blast at his set, and that his classics hit like a truck in the crowd. Regardless, let us know what you'd pick in the comments and return to HNHH for the latest on Soulja Boy.
