KODAK BLACK | Before They Were Famous | BIOGRAPHY | ORIGINAL

This video has been UPDATED:    • Kodak Black Update | Before They Were Famo...   Before Kodak Black would become one of the hottest young rappers out of Florida, getting everyone’s attention when HipHopDX’s put him on their ‘top artists to watch for 2016’ Kodak Black was raised in the projects outside of Miami Florida by a single mother. He was rapping and running drugs with some of the older kids on the block, but when he was 15 caught a life sentence that almost put him away for good. Luckily a producer thought he was worth investing in, paid off his lawyers, and signed him to the label Atlantic Records. Originally he was rapping under the monkier Lil Black but when he signed up to instagram he swapped out the lil for Kodak, where did he get that idea from? Your guess is good as mine. How’s it going I’m Michael McCrudden documenting the come up of young and talented rapper Kodak Black prior to fame here for you on Before They Were Famous. I’ve also looked at a ton of other Florida rappers like Rick Ross and Stitches… man the stiches one is pretty crazy, give that one a watch. And as always let me know who you want to hear about next in the comments below.
