    WOW!!! Now i get the chance to say what i really think about this song……….URGHHHHHHHHH I passionately hate it, it makes me physically sick, it's disgraceful that people are listening to this, i know most of them are kids, which it's still wrong. Why are children being subjected to this pile of shit! i mean what is it anyway?? it's not a song, what's the meaning of it?? maybe it has a hidden message that only people with bad taste in music can understand;(

    Re: VNIJV – Your wrong its not because he is black,its because his muisc sucks,and if it were madonna I would still hate her muisc if it sucks,which to me I think madonna is a has been but thats not the point,the point is the song sucks,and the song dosen't even make no sense! all he says is "superman goes OHH! pls,that shit is corny,and MY version would go,"superman says NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! the songs sucks,so GET OVER IT! and by the way,his tacky ass sunglasses and neckless got to go!!

    Cause it's a good song ya fat f*ck. Sorry it's not the Jonas brothers or Lilly Allen or whatever other gay crap you constantly promote on this site.

    Bet you fuckers would appreciate his music if he was a alcoholic, crack pipe, cocaine addicted, lip syncing, cannot carry a tune, pale ass fuck—

    And do people even realize what "Superman that hoe" means? He's talking about shooting a super amount of cum on a female. He even said in earlier interviews that the Superman line was originally written more explicitly. SO basically, we have 5 year olds rapping about nutting on women

    You people are dumb, its called entertainment which is what this guy is doing hence why its at number one! Just admit it u lil punk ass moaners deep in ur heart u love it and probaly dance to it behind closed doors!! So stop hating on someone who is making money, nobody forced the public to buy his records.

    321

    Thats true maybe the guy its not a good rapper or singer,but u know people is tired to hear the same shit so they want something new and something that make them move…so thats wat happen with this song Crank That,he choose a good way to promo his song (youtube) & and the good moment,people was waiting for something new…

    you are totally right Perez! While rap music is not really my scene, I have nothing against Soulja Boy. It's just apalling that such a hit single consists of a few verses and lots of annoying repitition. Love ya Perez!
