Kodak Black | BTWF | UPDATED | Dieuson Octave Legendary Biography

Before Kodak Black would release hit songs like “Skrt”, and “Tunnel
Vision” that would get him to notice from some of the biggest names
in hip-hop like Drake and set him on a path to superstardom. Before
Kodak Black ascent would get halted in its tracks thanks to
multiple arrests and a lengthy prison sentence before his recent
release. Before Kodak Black would have almost 7 Million subscribers
on YouTube, 3.5 Million followers on Twitter, and nearly 10 Million
followers on Instagram at the time of this recording. Some people
have a harder time staying on the right side of the law than
others, and South Florida rapper Kodak Black definitely fits that
bill. His legal problems have persisted for years, basically the
entire length of his professional career, and while it’s hard to
say that these issues have hurt his career, they sure aren’t
helping. When Kodak first appeared on the hip-hop scene as a
wide-eyed teenager, his distillation of hundreds of years of
American history and embodiment of a country locked in an endless
struggle with race and class was widely evident in the lyrics to
his music. This is a young man who grew up in a poverty-stricken
environment and still managed to find a way to create emotionally
intelligent observations based upon his own plight. His unfiltered
nature is perhaps part of what would get him into trouble later on
in his life, but it’s also what makes his music so powerful.
Growing up the child of a single Haitian mother, Kodak had to
basically skip his adolescence as a means of survival on the rough
streets of Pompano Beach and today I’m going to tell you about what
that cost him.
