Soulja Boy has lampooned Kanye West and Drake in a wide-ranging interview.

The rapper, who recently released a range of knock-off games consoles and is best known for releasing the track “Crank That” over a decade ago, made the comments while speaking to Charlamagne Tha God and Envy on their radio show The Breakfast Club.

Pressed on Drake being the “biggest rapper in the world” right now, Soulja responded: ”Drake? The n***a that got bodied by Pusha-T? The n***a that’s hiding his kid from the world but his world ain’t hiding from the kid?

“You n***as better stop playing with me. Stop telling me like I ain’t teach Drake everything he know.”

The conversation soon turned to Kanye West, with Soulja lamenting his political beliefs, saying: “We looking at you like you goofy, bro. You up here supporting Trump and s**t, bro. You supporting Trump, bro?”

Soulja then brought the two strands of thinking together: “I’m younger than you. I’m flyer than you...You cryin’ every week on Twitter about Drake. You gotta stop that s**t bro! You look lame!”

Soulja made headlines late last year after launching a games console range, with each console featuring dozens of copyrighted Nintendo games.

The SouljaGames were taken down from the Soulja Watch store soon after, but recent developments have seen another Soulja console – one that looks suspiciously like a PSP – launch online.
