All Music Guide
Short on new ideas and lacking in cohesion, Soulja Boy Tell Em's second official full-length finds the young upstart trying way too hard to re-create the bazillion selling 'Crank That' and repeatedly coming up short.

Vibe
On his sophomore effort, iSoujaBoyTellem (Interscope), the YouTube legend attempts to sound all grown up, but for the most part, sticks to his rather unusual brand of hip-hop for the Google generation.

Your best bet is to find a website you can listen to snippets of this album on and if one or two tracks strike your fancy, buy those. A whole album of SB's idiotic raps is still too much for one man or woman to take no matter how much better the beats are.

Rolling Stone
The beats on iSouljaBoyTellem--built by Soulja and Mr. Collipark--are beefier. And Soulja Boy's willingness to drill songs into your skull is less charming.

Boston Globe
This follow-up to his commercially successful debut is a mind-numbing bore that has a few well-produced club tracks by Mr. Collipark and Polow Da Don that slightly mix up the successful formula (chant, be inane, repeat).

Y'al saying Soulja Boy ain't the **** well I got news for ya, YA TRICK YA ALL THE WAY. This album is what ghetto street cruisin is all about with Soulja Boy and Arab, I mean dayum they get me some BAPES!

Bob B. gave it a0:
Absolutely dreadful. Soulja Boy thinks simplistic rhymes over Fruity Loops beats is "real" rap. It's not. Headache Inducing, boring, and repetitive; it's the hip hop Metal Machine Music.
