Soulja Boy is issuing an apology to Kandi Burruss for "overreacting" in a viral rant about her and will soon appear on her podcast.
Last week, the rapper popped off on the Xscape singer after she interviewed former cameraman Charlie Rocket, who claimed Soulja spit in his food during a 2007 incident.
Soulja denied the allegations in an expletive-heavy rant streamed to Instagram while threatening to sue both Charlie and Burruss.
After some reflection and an invitation from Burruss to “pull up” to share his side of the story on her Speak On It podcast, Soulja came back online with an apology.
“They said you gon’ need to apologize to Kandi. I'm sending out an apology to Kandi, man, you know what I'm saying?” Soulja said in a new video circulating online. “You know I be overreacting sometimes. I just be seeing stuff on the internet … But much love to Kandi, if you could find it in your heart to accept my apology.”
He continued, “I just be getting so mad … Folks lying on me and shit, but they're like, ‘Man, he should’ve got mad at the dude, you shouldn't got mad at her.’”
Days later, Soulja and Burruss were all smiles in a photo from the set of the Speak On It podcast. It’s unclear when their episode will be released.
On the podcast episode featuring Charlie, the former videographer recalled working for the rapper in Las Vegas and claimed he had “not eaten in three days.”
“Soulja Boy called me to his room. We're staying at the Bellagio and he wanted to make a really viral video,” Rocket said near the 12-minute mark in the video linked here.
“He said, ‘Come to my room. I'm about to order some room service,’ and he ordered $1,000 worth of room service. When he was done, there was so much food left over. I was excited. I saw some chicken fingers and I was like, ‘Can I can I get those?’ ‘Cause I'm hungry, I'm really really hungry.”
Charlie claimed Soulja told him to “have whatever you want” before getting up and spitting on the food. He said he had never experienced something like that before while conceding that Soulja, who was between 17 and 18 years old at the time, “was just a kid.”
