The rapper Soulja Boy was recently served with eviction papers for neglecting to pay rent on his Atlanta home.

Earlier this year the “Crank That” rapper, whose real name is DeAndre Way, made headlines when a story leaked that he allegedly bought himself a $55M jet for his birthday. The story turned out to be false.

Today, TMZ is reporting that Souja Boy has not paid his November rent for his Atlanta home. The rapper reportedly owes $4,725, and has been served with eviction papers.

He has until December 5 to pay the money owed, or he might face the risk of getting thrown out.

During a recent Fader magazine interview, the inside of the rapper’s Atlanta pad was described.

Soulja Boy’s 30th floor penthouse in the Buckhead section of Atlanta, looks a lot like the set of Blank Check, the 1994 Disney film about a discontented boy who is granted a blank check to pay for a damaged bicycle, which he cashes for one million dollars, purchasing a house and filling it with the most expensive toys he can find. Soulja Boy’s living room is outfitted with arcade-size video game stations, a pair of Segways, a number of unattended laptops and an entertainment system so expansive that it could only have been dreamt up by someone who installs entertainment systems for a living.

This year has been filled with ups and downs for Soulja Boy.

Last month, he was arrested for possessing a significant amount of marijuana and guns. Earlier this year the rapper blamed hackers for homophobic comments that were posted on his Facebook account.

So far, Soulja hasn’t commented on the eviction.
