Music news Soulja Boy to visit the Potato Capital

The hardest working teenager in show business?
Fresh off of his XXL cover and featured on the cover of rolling out this week, Soulja Boy (is he going to drop the Tell 'Em when he gets older a la the former Lil Bow Wow?) keeps adding new tour dates. He's already sweeping through the American North, South, East and West, and Pollstar confirms shows in the unlikely burgs of Blackfoot, Idaho, on June 24 and Saint George, Utah, on June 25. St. George is in the heart of Mormon country, while Blackfoot is a town of 10,000 and, you guessed it, the Potato Capital of the World.
Oh, and there's a confirmed local date as well, June 20 as part of Hot 107.9's Birthday Bash at Philip's Arena. Look for a feature story on the former one-hit wonder/sudden critical darling in Creative Loafing that week, in which Soulja will talk about firing his management, his upcoming third album and his money-management secrets. Seriously.
UPDATE: See his 5/26/09 interview with the ladies on "The View" below the jump.
