Rapper Soulja Boy says he is preparing to run for the US presidency in 2028 and has used social media to float the idea. Multiple outlets report that he shared the news through posts on Instagram and other platforms, including hashtags such as “#America2028.”
In his comments, Soulja Boy frames the move as starting a “conversation” about the future and says he is exploring how his earlier “vision” could translate into public service. Coverage also notes that attention is already turning toward potential contenders for the 2028 election, even as other elections are ongoing.
While outlets differ slightly in emphasis—some focusing on the tease and timing, others on his stated intent to connect his past goals to governance—they all describe the same basic development: the rapper is publicly signaling interest in seeking the presidency in 2028 and presenting broad thematic priorities rather than a detailed policy platform.
