Teddy Riley decided to address his daughter, Nia Riley’s, disrespectful boyfriend and rapper, Soulja Boy, and he also revealed how he really feels about her dating him and airing it on the reality show, Love and Hip Hop of ATL…we’re SO glad he did.
First of all, Soulja Boy pissed all of us, Old Schoolers, off after he was so blatantly disrespectful to Teddy Riley a couple months ago when he cursed Teddy and Nia out on his Twitter page. He said a lot of uncalled for things, such as calling Nia a “bit*h” and his more recent diss was when he posted “F*ck Teddy Riley!”…then he quickly tried to snatch his Twitter post down, but it was too late. We had already taken screenshots of his tweets, posted it on here, and you all let him have it, as he so well deserved. Here is what a few of y’all said about Soulja Boy’s words:
After getting feedback on social media and catching wind of Soulja’s disses, Teddy didn’t hold nothing back. We’re not sure how Teddy’s response flew under the radar, but this is what he revealed about Nia and Souljah Boy when he spoke with VHI in October:
Are you aware that your legion of fans feel a way about seeing your daughter’s situation play out with Soulja Boy on Love & Hip Hop Hollywood? Is it hard to watch that?
Teddy Riley: I don’t watch it at all. I haven’t even seen myself on there. The reason why is because they are right, in the sense that I can’t stand to go for it, and when I was on the show, I went on the show to actually talk to her because she wouldn’t answer my calls about her situation with that guy. But, my daughter’s grown. I can’t make her. I can’t do what I used to do when she was young and put her on punishment or say, “You can’t go outside” or “I’m taking your phone.” She’s got her own phone and she’s got her own life and all I can do is say, I’m not going to watch.
Now I just get it on Twitter and Instagram, they’re like, “Man, you need to go and slap him” and “You need to go and do this to him,” and I’m like, I can’t do nothing to that gentlemen because the simple fact she’s welcoming it. If she came to me and say, “Dad, this dude is trying to hurt me, and hurt me real bad, and I need something done about it?” Then something would be done about it. Then that would be, “You need to leave him, for good but I’m not going to do nothing to him because you welcomed that. Then you told me you’re fine. When you tell me you’re fine, I’m thinking you’re fine, because you’re handling it.” I said, “If you ever need me to handle something, then I can handle it, but my handling is going to be a little different. I’m going to defend the situation, and I’m going to tell you that you need to leave him alone forever. When you get me into this, that’s when I’m going to say, “Okay, I’m going to be the dad that I used to be. You can’t do that.”
