The Island Boys | The Dark Side of Fame | Kodiyakredd & Flyysoulja Criminal History

Is there a more viral act tearing up the inter-webs right now then
Kodiyak Redd and FlyySoulja, aka, the Island Boyz? If there is, I’m
not aware of it, and considering that’s more or less my job, I
think I would know. Not only do these two have a combined 3.5
Million followers on Tik Tok and just over 800K followers on
Instagram, but they’ve also become a viral sensation thanks to a
bare-bones clip that sees both of them singing while hanging out in
a pool. Since that clip made them viral, they’ve been featured on
H3H3 AND the BFF podcast... oh, and they’ve also hopped onto a Zoom
call to speak with none other than yours truly! But even though I
haven’t seen a more viral act since the heyday of Kid Buu or Joker
305, that doesn’t mean everything about the Island Boyz story
shines – in fact, a whole lot of it has to do with some pretty
seedy and dark stuff. I’m talking calls of cultural appropriation,
multiple arrests, months spent in juvie, and taking advantage of
the recent pandemic to land themselves a brand-new dream home where
they’ve been filming the bulk of their content. So, if you want to
hear all about the Island Boyz dip into the Dark Side of Fame --
keep watching!
