Kodak Black is quite familiar with posing for mugshots. He was arrested in October 2015 in Pompano Beach, Florida, and charged with robbery, battery, false imprisonment of a child and possession of cannabis. In April 2016, he was arrested in Hallandale Beach, Florida, and charged with possession of a weapon by a convicted felon, possession of marijuana and fleeing from officers. In May 2016, he was arrested in Broward County, Florida, and charged with armed robbery and false imprisonment.
In August 2016, authorities discovered Kodak had two outstanding criminal warrants from Florence, South Carolina, for felony criminal sexual conduct, and the other in St. Lucie County, Florida, for two counts of misdemeanor marijuana possession. In February of 2017, Kapri was arrested for violating his probation. In January of 2018, Kapri was arrested for appearing on an Instagram Live video showing him smoking weed and handling a gun around a small child.
On Wednesday, Kodak posted photos of himself with these Socrates-esque words of wisdom: “When They Feed You Shit You Make Fertilizer With It.” That’s so deep, but seemingly flawed logic. Isn’t any food you eat turned into fertilizer after it is digested?
