Stand With Crypto Excludes Soulja Boy From NJ Rally Following Legal Ruling
Rapper Soulja Boy will not perform at the Stand With Crypto event in Jersey City on June 5 due to a court ruling finding him liable for sexual battery and assault. A spokesperson confirmed this decision following his order to pay $4 million to a former assistant.
The event, aimed at engaging crypto enthusiasts ahead of New Jersey's gubernatorial primary, will still feature 070 Shake as a performer. The president of Stand With Crypto New Jersey, Carlos Merino, emphasized the organization’s commitment to mobilizing the crypto community.
