On Drake’s “Started From The Bottom” record, the Canadian musician raps, “I wear every single chain even when I’m in the house.” And according to Atlanta, Georgia rapper Soulja Boy, he was the one who inspired that particular lyric from Drake.

Soulja Boy mentioned the lyric from the Young Money singer/rapper during an interview with Vlad TV after he was asked if he always wears his jewelry.

“I wear my jewelry all the time,” Soulja Boy said. “What Drake said in that song? ‘I wear all my chains on even when I’m in the house.’ He got that shit from me. You know what I’m saying? I’m in the house I got four, five chains on, but that just—I don’t know. Cause I never had nothing. I come from the hood. I come from the ghetto. I come from the brokest hood in Atlanta, Georgia on the West Side. I never had shit, so when I made my first million dollars at 17 I said ‘Nigga, I’mma ball out. I want niggas to know that I made it.’ So, this is a statement of me not having nothing and coming to being something. Making nothing to something.”

The “Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood” star later confirmed that he is a member of Rich Gang. He was also asked if he’ll be featured on Lil Wayne’s upcoming album, Tha Carter V.

“I’m in Rich Gang. I’m one of the members of Rich Gang. I ride for Birdman, man. Salute Mack Maine. Y’all already know. Wayne is my brother. That’s what it is. That’s how I’m rocking…We got a lot of songs that we been working on,” he said when asked if he’ll be on Tha Carter V. “We been working for the last couple of years.”

Lastly, Soulja Boy commented on being one of the first rappers to break via the internet, specifically through MySpace and YouTube.

“That’s accurate,” he said. “I don’t know where I read this. I read this somewhere, but they say I’m the first YouTube star ever…Basically, back then I couldn’t get my music to the radio. I was like 16, 15. I couldn’t get my music to the radio. I couldn’t get my music on TV, so I just went to the internet and I uploaded the ‘Crank That’ and ‘Turn My Swag On’ and dancing and just hella shit. And it caught on. I started getting millions of views. I just kept it going. Now I’m CEO of my own record label, SODMG.”
