Soulja Boy has teased a possible run for US president in 2028, posting 'SOULJA BOY 2028' on Instagram on Saturday, 10 October. The rapper listed economic opportunity, criminal justice reform, education, and the future of technology and artificial intelligence among his priorities, but did not announce a party affiliation or detailed policies.
His post comes 18 months after a California jury awarded approximately $4.25 million (about £3.2 million) to a former personal assistant in a civil case involving sexual battery, assault and other claims. Soulja Boy, whose real name is DeAndre Cortez Way, denied wrongdoing and said after the April 2025 verdict that he intended to appeal.
