Cole expressed that the music often soundtracked the parties he attended but also went against his “fake morals.” He then referenced Soulja, admitting he was a “hater” towards the artist before switching his mindset.

“I turned from a hater to an appreciator. Like, what can I find that’s amazing about this? What can I find that’s good about this? What can I find that’s going on?” he shared. “That shit changed me as an artist. I became a better artist.”

As for Big Sean, he was compared to Soulja Boy back in 2011. “Man, I never heard Soulja Boy rap so good,” the Detroit 2 artist responded when asked about sounding similar to Soulja on “Big Nut Bust.”
