Soulja Boy Shares New Track “Don Corleone”
November 7th, 2014 John Bazley Soulja Boy just dropped a new song on Soundcloud. The track is called “Don Corleone.” One of the many new tracks we’ve heard from Soulja Boy in the past few years, “Don Corleone” is a pretty standard banger.

November 7th, 2014 Scott Murray Recently, Chicago artists Fall Out Boy and Lupe Fiasco teamed up to release a revamped version of the Chicago Bulls’ official theme song, “Only The Bulls,” and the results are…strange.
