The year’s ending on a pretty bad note for Soulja Boy. TMZ reports that the rapper just received an eviction notice for not paying rent for the month of November. He owes $4,725 for his Atlanta crib and if he doesn’t pay up by December 5, he’s out of there. All of this is capping off a pretty dismal run for Soulja, BTW. Between ticking off the U.S Army and getting busted for pot, we wondered if things were going to look up for him. Apparently, not so much. But this problem can be fixed — he’s just got to get that Crank it up!

In addition to the case he has pending in Georgia, Soulja Boy is also causing some trouble in Los Angeles with the landlords of his luxury apartment.
According to TMZ, Soulja Boy was sent a letter of complaint from the building owners along with an overdue bill for more than $9,000.
“We have received complaints of noise disturbances and guests wandering the hallway and Observation Deck,” the letter from the landlord read. “This is a direct violation of your Lease Agreement. Additionally, we were notified that you had over 10 cars parked in guest parking on the evening of September 25. This is a violation of your lease… which states, ‘You many have no more than two overnight guests at a time unless we provide specific approval.”
A few days later he was sent a bill for $9,376.10 in unpaid rent and late fees.

What The Hell

Soulja Boy Tell'em is out of jail after spending the night behind bars on Wednesday, following his arrest on a charge of obstruction. The rapper (born DeAndre Way), was detained when Georgia police responded to a report of juveniles hanging out in an abandoned home on Wednesday night in the McDonough area of Atlanta.

According to Captain Jason Bolton of the Henry County Police, someone called in a report of individuals hanging out at an abandoned home. When officers arrived on the scene, they found around 40 people standing in a dark backyard behind the house.

"You couldn't really tell what was going on," Bolton said. "But about half of the group ran from the officer on foot. He ordered, of course, for them to stop. ... There were several vehicles left at that location."

Bolton said that when the officer tried to speak to the remaining individuals — who were not identified by police — to figure out what was going on, he was told that they had gathered for a video shoot.

While investigating the scene, the officer figured out that one of the people who fled was Soulja Boy, 19, who eventually returned to claim his white Range Rover, which was left at the house. Upon his return, the officer charged the rapper with one count of obstruction, a misdemeanor, for running from police when he'd been ordered to stop. The rapper was released on $550 bond on Thursday morning and a follow-up court date was not available at press time.

A spokesperson for Soulja Boy had no comment on the arrest at press time. It was unknown what video the rapper, who frequently posts viral videos on his Web site, was shooting before the incident.

On Thursday, rumors began circulating on the web that Soulja Boy Tell'em had gotten engaged to model/ video star Rosa Acosta — according to Acosta's manager and a source in Soulja  Boy's camp, the rumors are false.

Acosta's manager, Charles Garner, told MTV News on Friday (September 25) that the rumors began after the pair was seen hanging out together in photos on the model's Web site. In the photos, Acosta is seen wearing what looks like an engagement ring — however, her manager said the ring wasn't a gift from Soulja Boy, but her mother. A source in Soulja Boy's camp also told MTV News that the rumors are untrue.
"So the story is that the proposal is false," Garner said in an e-mail to MTV News. "Miss Acosta is still very much single. She was in L.A. filming the Chris Brown video (featuring Lil Wayne and Swizz Beatz) with several other models. Soulja Boy was in L.A. He's been with friends with Rosa for awhile and asked if she and the other girls wanted to go to dinner.

"So he took her and four other girls to dinner, [during] which some playful pictures were taken as 'behind the scenes' for Miss Acosta's Web site. The ring she has on her finger is a ring that was given to her by her mother about three or four years ago and it was not given to her by Soulja Boy. The picture that everyone has up is a harmless picture where he's kissing her on the cheek. And there's about four other pictures where you see him at the table with her and the other models and he's hugging everybody."

"I know a million producers that are no-names, but they got hot beats," he said in an interview. "I will be going back in the lab to produce beats on this album, I really haven't produced since my second album, but I'm looking forward to doing a 50/50 split beat with Kanye West. I think that'll be hot because he's a great lyricist, but an awesome producer as well. I feel like I'm an awesome producer too, and both of us in the studio together at the same time can come out with a smash."
