Introduction

Kodak Black is an American professional rapper and entrepreneur with an estimated net worth of $5 Million.

Music Career

Kodak Black began his career in 2009 when he joined the rap group Brutal Youngnz at the age of 12. A year later, he released his first mixtape, “Project Baby,” which he followed with “Heart of the Projects” in 2014 and “Institution” in 2015.

Black’s popularity soared soon after when Drake posted a video of himself dancing to Kodak Black’s song “Skrt.” He was then signed with Atlantic Records and was set to join Lil Uzi Vert on the Parental Advisory Tour, but ultimately was unable to attend.

Kodak Black’s Big Break

In 2016, Kodak Black appeared on French Montana’s single “Lockjaw,” and his single “Skrt” hit No. 10 on Billboard’s Hip-Hop Singles chart. After releasing his fourth mixtape, Lil B.I.G. Pac, Black was included on XXL magazine’s 2016 Freshman Class list. The following year, Kodak released his single “Tunnel Vision,” which debuted at no. 27 and peaked at no. 6 on the Hot 100.

In March 2017, he released his debut album, Painting Pictures, which sold 71,000 copies in its first week. That same year, he released Project Baby 2 and its deluxe version, Project Baby 2: All Grown Up, with the single “Codeine Dreaming.”

Unfortunately, in January 2018, following a raid on his home, Kodak Black was arrested. However, he was able to release Heartbreak Kodak in February. In December of that year, he released his second album, Dying to Live, which featured Travis Scott and Offset on the single “Zeze.” This album also featured Lil Pump and Juice WRLD and a tribute to XXXTentacion, who died in June 2018 after being shot.

In 2019, Kodak released “Zombie” with NLE Choppa and “Because of You,” followed by a music video.

Recent Work

Kodak Black released his third album, Bill Israel, in November 2020 while he was in prison for firearms possession. That year, he served his sentence at Big Sandy’s high-security prison before being transferred to Thomson Penitentiary in October.

In 2021, then-president Donald Trump commuted Black’s sentence, though he was still facing charges of criminal sexual assault. After being released, Kodak released “Last Day In” and was featured on Lil Yachty’s “Hit Bout It” in February. That same year, he released the mixtape Haitian Boy Kodak, which he used to celebrate his Haitian roots. His next project, Happy Birthday Kodak, was released in June to celebrate his 24th birthday.

In February 2022, he released his fourth studio album, Back for Everything, which peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200. Soon after, he released “Walk/Spin” and announced he was leaving Atlantic Records for an eight-figure deal with Capitol Records. His final project with Atlantic was the mixtape Kutthroat Bill: Vol. 1, released in October 2022.

Most recently, Kodak Black was arrested in Florida, and although he posted bail, he was quickly back in federal custody after violating his probation. After being released from jail in February 2024, he threatened to punch a reporter and threw rocks at a journalist covering his release.

Arrests & Legal Issues Before 2022

Kodak Black was first arrested in Florida in 2015 when he faced charges including false imprisonment, robbery, assault, driving with a suspended license, and marijuana possession. Released on bond in October of the same year, he was arrested again in December for marijuana possession in St. Lucie County before the case was later dismissed.

In 2016, Black was arrested in Florence County, South Carolina, and was charged with criminal sexual misconduct. Shortly after, in April, he was arrested again for weapons possession. After three months in jail and a year on house arrest, Black was placed on mandatory community service in August 2016.

In 2017, after violating the terms of his house arrest and allegedly assaulting a bartender in Miami’s Club Climaxx, he was arrested again. The following year, in 2018, he uploaded an Instagram video showing weapons and drugs next to his child, leading to additional charges.

In 2019, Black faced another arrest and prison sentence of three years and ten months following a federal weapons charge, but Donald Trump commuted his sentence in January 2021 as part of a grant of clemency.

Arrests & Legal Issues Since 2022

Kodak Black’s legal issues continued in January 2022 with his arrest for trespassing at a housing complex in Pompano Beach, followed by his involvement in a shooting incident outside the Nice Guy venue in West Hollywood the following month. He was again arrested in Broward in July for possession of cocaine and other substances and was later freed on a $75,000 bond.

In June 2023, Black was released from federal detention, with attorney Bradford Cohen announcing the update on Instagram, accompanied by a copy of the court document dismissing the oxycodone charges. Cohen described the arrest as a “disgusting” abuse of power and also urged the court to dismiss the evidence-tampering charge.

Real Estate

In early 2023, Kodak paid $1.8 million for a retail property in Pompano Beach, Florida, spanning 0.7 acres and comprising two single-story commercial buildings. The first building is 3,800 square feet, and the second is 4,900 square feet. The rapper reportedly purchased the property intending to develop a retail space featuring a restaurant.
