He goes by the name of Lil Soulja, and is one of the more prominent Assyrian hip hop musicians.

His upper face looks more Armenoid-shifted but his other features are distinctively Levantine (not even Anatolian), so I am going with Assyroid. Gives off a DJ Khaled vibe in the 2nd and 3rd pic (except skinnier and more cute).

I guess but I don't see the point of inventing new internet names for mixtures of types. I stick with Coon's classification system. He didn't actually use the name Arabid but he described the type as a variant of Mediterranean.

Honestly, I'm not a fan of the term "Assyroid" myself and I don't think it should exist as as well. For starters, many Assyrians are barely "Arabid" (since Assyroid is a mix of Arabid & Armenoid, and as such, it is associated with Assyrians). Now if they had to invent a type for a Armeno-Arabid combo then they should've used a different term...Mesopotamianid, Iraqid, Semitid, Hebraic...I don't know, but something like those. Not sure why they went with an ethnicity that has diverse looks and phenotypes. I could argue the same for "Armenoid".

Besides, most "Assyrid" looking people tend to be Iraqi Arabs, Mandeans/Sabbeans and some Syrian Arabs.

I personally don't see Arabid in the guy though. If I had to classify him, then I'd say Armenoid and some Med perhaps.

Assyroid. :)

Sounds like a slang term for hemorrhoids.

He looks like a Historical Figure to me, for some reason.. I can imagine a bust of his likeness being shown to undergraduates in a lecture on some or other major ancient Mediterranean development..

He looks like a statue or a painting of that historical figure?

He reminds me of ancient Assyrian kings:

Predominantly Armenoid, minor Arabid.
