Soulja Boy is taking aim at Ariana Grande.

After criticizing artists like Drake, Tyga, and Kanye West, the "Crank That" rapper created more drama over the weekend by labeling Grande a crook. The accusation seems to stem from Grande's newly released single "7 Rings," which has been compared to Soulja's 2010 hit "Pretty Boy Swag."

The rapper caught wind of the comparison, and shared an Instagram video that played clips of the songs back-to-back:

Give me my credit. Period https://t.co/Akhp2BXcuY

So did Grande steal the "Pretty Boy Swag" flow? Soulja seems to think so.

On Saturday, the rapper responded to one of Grande's tweets in which she thanked several of her friends for inspiring "7 Rings." Soulja, realizing his name wasn't included, demanded recognition for the track.

Lol stop stealing my swag. Word https://t.co/jIMnD5m5U8

His tweets became progressively bolder. Soulja went on to Grande to "stop stealing his swag," and also responded to her Mac Miller tribute post by calling her "a thief."

Grande has not responded to Drako's tweets.

Princess Nokia has also suggested that Grande stole her sound on "7 Rings." The NYC-bred rapper posted a video that compared Grande's song to her 2017 track "Mine."

"Does that sound familiar to you? ’Cause that sound really familiar to me," Princess Nokia said. "Ain’t that the lil song I made about brown women and their hair? Hmmm... sounds about white."
