The "Crank Dat" rapper is probably regretting his behavior right about now.

Soulja Boy is going to have to pay a pretty penny to his ex-girlfriend for a party gone awry. The rapper has reportedly been instructed to pay $235,000 to his ex-girlfriend, Kayla Meyers. This was a result of a lawsuit filed against him following an incident in 2019 where she accused him of assault and kidnapping. A Los Angeles jury made a decision on Meyers' civil case on Friday, as reported by Radar Online. According to court records, the jury granted Meyers $1,800 for "mental health expenses" and an additional $234,100 for "physical and mental pain and suffering," totaling $235,900. The jury also determined that Soulja acted with "malice, oppression or fraud."

During her testimony last week, Meyers presented pictures of her purported injuries, including three broken ribs. In addition to the text messages, she exhibited DMs that she claimed were sent to her by the rapper. While Soulja Boy was not charged with a crime for the alleged assault, law enforcement officers discovered weapons at his residence, which breached the conditions of his probation. The rapper contends that a third party caused Myers' injuries and has denied any culpability.

Soulja Boy's Party From Hell

Soulja Boy sure knows how to ruin a good night. In February 2019, a party was reportedly held at the location where an incident occurred. The events of that night led to a lawsuit being filed against the rapper and his assistant for sexual battery. The alleged assault and kidnapping happened at the his Malibu residence and lasted for about six hours. When the victim, Kayla Myers, tried to leave, there was a disagreement between her and one of Soulja's assistants. According to the suit, Myers claims she was knocked to the ground and kicked in the stomach.

In addition to the physical abuse, Myers alleges that Soulja Boy pointed a "large" firearm at her head and threatened to kill her. The rapper then purportedly instructed another assistant to tie her up with duct tape and have her shower to clean up the wounds she sustained. Myers states that Anderson offered to release her if she performed oral sex on him, which she did. Then, at 8 AM, the victim was allowed to leave. At the time, Soulja Boy reportedly said, "Now get this b*tch outta here before I knock her down the stairs." What do you think of the jury's decision? Let us know in the comments.
