American Rapper Soulja Boy Interested In Buying TikTok Amid U.S. Ban Talks
American rapper Soulja Boy has thrown his hat into the ring in acquiring the social media app TikTok.
This move comes hot on the heels of U.S. President Joe Biden signing a foreign aid package into law, which stipulates that TikTok must be sold within nine months to avoid a ban in the U.S., owing to its Chinese ownership.
Taking to his X handle, Soulja Boy didn’t hold back, criticizing the new law and highlighting the broader implications it could have. He argued that if U.S. authorities have the power to ban TikTok, they could potentially target any other app or website in the future.
“I can’t believe yall just gon let them ban TikTok like that. And yall think it’s funny. If they do it to this app they can do it to any app or site. Not cool fr yall will see later,” he wrote.
In another post, the rapper jokingly suggested that he will buy TikTok.
Soulja Boy wrote: “How much yall want for TikTok? I’ll buy it. @tiktok_us.”
TikTok has vowed to take legal action against the new law.
The app spokesperson, Alex Haurek called the law “unconstitutional” in a statement and vowed to “challenge it in court.”
