Soulja Boy Reveals How He Raked in $100k Monthly from ‘Kiss Me Thru The Phone’

Soulja Boy, the Atlanta rap veteran, sheds light on his astonishing earnings from the chart-topping hit “Kiss Me Thru the Phone,” divulging that he was pulling in an impressive $100,000 per month during its peak. In an exclusive interview with HipHopDX, he discusses the lucrative source of income that stemmed not from the song itself, but rather from fans calling and texting the phone number, 6789998212, as sung by Sammie in the track.

Recounting the story behind the iconic number, Soulja Boy passionately states, “We gotta get the number back, man! That number is so legendary, you know how they do. It used to be my number, actually. When I first dropped that song, that was my number.”

Elaborating further, he explains, “Alright, let me tell y’all the real story. Boom. So that number was like a fan line. Every time somebody called that number, I was getting paid off of that. It was like a subscription. You could text it or call it, so I was probably making like $100,000 a month off of that, just people calling that number.”

“Kiss Me Thru the Phone,” produced by Jim Jonsin and featured in Soulja Boy’s second studio album, iSouljaBoyTellem, stands as his second biggest single to date, following his breakout hit “Crank That (Soulja Boy),” which dominated the Billboard Hot 100 in 2007.
