Soulja Boy Campaigns to Save TikTok: Will He Succeed?

Soulja Boy Takes on Congress to Save TikTok from Ban

Soulja Boy is never one to shy away from controversy, and his latest target is Congress. The rapper turned entrepreneur has taken it upon himself to campaign for TikTok not to be banned in the United States. With Congress putting a timeline on a potential shutdown of the popular social media platform, Soulja Boy has declared himself as TikTok’s best chance to stay alive.

In a recent interview with TMZ, Soulja Boy passionately spoke out against a legislative measure signed by President Biden that would ban TikTok if it does not divest from its Chinese-owned parent company, Bytedance. Despite TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew vowing to fight until the end, Soulja Boy believes the battle is hopeless. However, he is not one to sit back and watch the inevitable happen. Instead, he is suggesting alternatives to keep the app popular and successful.

Soulja Boy, who claims to have essentially invented TikTok culture with his early success on YouTube and other social media platforms, is not one to back down from a challenge. While the task of acquiring TikTok may seem daunting, with the app valued at around $100 billion, Soulja Boy is determined to find partners and keep the app alive.

As the legal battle between TikTok and Congress continues, the future of the app in the United States remains uncertain. With President Biden signing the divest-or-ban provision as part of a broader national security bill, the stakes are high for TikTok and its millions of users. Only time will tell if Soulja Boy’s efforts will be enough to save TikTok from being banned.
