Parents Beware: The Real Meaning of Soulja Boy's 'Superman that Hoe'

Soulja Boy's "Crank That" Catch-phrase May Be More Offensive Than You Think

Soulja Boy has stormed on the scene with a dance and a string of weak rhymes in his hit "Crank That." The 17-year-old rapper may have gained the backing of label executives tossing cash at the self-proclaimed "Teen of da South" and artists who undermine their credibility by performing the "Crank That" dance onstage, but real hip-hop heads know that Soulja Boy is an embarrassment to the genre.

Now, however, it seems that in addition to being lyrically asinine, the young "rapper" popular with children is referring to a vulgar sex act when he uses the phrase "Superman that h@e," as in the "Crank That" chorus.

Soulja Boy Off In This Hoe
Watch Me Crank It
Watch Me Roll
Watch Me Crank Dat Soulja Boy
Then Super Man Dat Hoe
Now Watch Me YUUUUUUA
(Crank Dat Soulja Boy)...
Now Watch Me YUUUUUUA
(Crank Dat Soulja Boy)...

The phrase is also used in a verse:

Soulja Boy Off In This Hoe
Watch Me Lean And Watch Me Rock
Super Man Dat Hoe
Then Watch Me Crank Dat Robocop

Later he mentions something about "super soaking," which should make sense once you know what it truly means to "Superman a H@e":

I'm Bouncin On My Toe
Watch Me Super Soak Dat Hoe

Initially, "Superman that H@e" seemed like an offensive but mostly meaningless phrase. In actuality, however, the phrase appears to refer to a vulgar sexual act. Ironic, considering that many of Soulja Boy's biggest fans are teens and tweens whose parents obviously don't pay enough attention to what their children listen to.

According to several websites, "Superman That H@e" means this: When, as a male, a girl you are with refuses to have sex with you, you wait until she falls asleep. Then you masturbate, ejaculate on her back, and stick the sheet to your semen (now on her back) so that when she wakes up in the morning, the sheet is stuck to her back like a cape. Hence you have "Supermanned" her.
