It was big news in the Hip-Hop world earlier this week when it was announced that Donald Trump had pardoned both Lil Wayne and Kodak Black on his way out of the office.
Kodak thanked Trump on Thursday through a tweet for letting him go. “I Want To Thank The President @RealDonaldTrump For His Commitment To Justice Reform And Shortening My Sentence. I Also Want To Thank Everyone For Their Support And Love,” Black posted. “It Means More Than You Will Ever Know. I Want To Continue Giving Back, Learning And Growing.”

The 23-year-old born, Bill Kapri, was serving a 46 month sentence after admitting in 2019 that he falsified information on federal forms to buy firearms from a South Florida gun shop. “He is out,” said the the rapper’s lawyer to Miami Herald. “His plans are to decompress for a period and take it all in. He is appreciative to the president and his team for giving him this chance.”
Kodak is celebrating his prison release with a new song called ‘Last Day In’ where he raps about his experiences and the relief of getting out. “Trump just free me but my favorite president is on the money,” he rhymes in his melodic cadence. Listen to it below.
Kodak still has a pending sexual assault case in Florence County, South Carolina against him which the prosecutors plan to pursue. He was charged with felony sexual misconduct after prosecutors said he raped an 18-year-old woman in a hotel room after a concert in 2016.
