LOS ANGELES, Sept. 7 (UPI) -- Soulja Boy's publicist says the song in which the rapper uses foul language while referring to U.S. military service members won't be on his next album.

"[Expletive] the FBI/And [expletive] all the Army troops/Bitch, be your own man/I'll be flying through the clouds/With green like I'm Peter Pan," E! News said Soulja Boy raps about a minute into "Let's Be Real," which went viral Monday.

The 21-year-old recording star issued an online apology to service members and their families for the song Tuesday after he was criticized for his disrespectful lyrics.

Debby Coda, a representative for the hip-hop artist's management team, told TMZ Soulja Boy's record label has been working since Friday to get the controversial video for "Let's Be Real" off the Internet.

Coda told TMZ the song was foolishly posted online and won't ever be available for purchase.

The track also will not be included on his next album, "Respect My Hustle," she said.
