Druski’s “Shoulda Woulda Coulda” comedy tour is packed with special guests including celebrity appearances. Last week, Druski held back-to-back shows in Miami and Orlando, Florida. Rapper, Kodack Black made a guest appearance on both of these dates. Kodack Black’s special appearance came as a surprise to fans. Kodack Black is a highly acclaimed rapper born in Pompano Beach, Florida. He took the stage to his song “Skrilla.” Additionally, he performed his popular single “No Flockin’” which was released in 2015. Kodak expressed his gratitude for Druski’s invitation on stage. “I appreciate you man, I ain’t been doing nothing in a minute,” he said.

In January, Druski’s “Shoulda Woulda Coulda” tour began with additional dates totaling 31 shows. This is his first time heading his own tour. He is now at the halfway make of his successful tour. “Shoulda Woulda Coulda” originated as an Instagram series called “Coulda Been Records.” Additionally, the skit series entails Druski being a talent scout on Instagram Live. He would give views on the change to join his life to critic their talents in comedian skit form. He has not left out celebrity appearances from his Instagram skit. In December, breakout rap star, Ice Spice joined his Instagram Live where he seemingly flirted with her. The series has become a series of social media memes including Tik Tok Sounds.

Furthermore, Druski’s tour has yet to miss headlines for its infamous moments. Fans have had the opportunity to audition to be a part of the show. Sticking to its origins, Druski Invites fans on stage to perform as he criticizes them in front of his audience. Additionally, the series is also scripted and is a web show on youtube.

Lil Durk Teases New Collab With Kodak Black: “Let’s Pop Out”

by

With a new album on the way, Lil Durk apparently has some heavy hitters on the tracklist. Over the past few months, Durk’s hinted at the release of his follow-up to 7220, though nothing’s really come of it. At one point, he said that his project would randomly drop at midnight on a Saturday, though that never materialized. However, he’s assured fans that it’s some of his best work yet and we hope that he follows through on that promise.

It seems like one person we might be able to expect on the tracklist is Kodak Black. This morning, Durk took to Instagram where he shared a screenshot of a FaceTime call with Yak. In another post, he wrote, “@kodakblack what we doing let’s pop out.” Unfortunately, neither have shared any snippets of music to confirm this collab but it seems quite likely that we’ll hear them on the same track at some point in the near future. 

Durk’s had nothing but good things to say about Kodak Black over the years. Last year, the Chicago rapper sat down with the Full Send Podcast where he called the Florida rapper one of the few rappers who have hip-hop on lock. ​​I listen to a few artists who really keep me on my toes,” he responds. “I’m gonna name my three, not the three the world already know. [Lil] Baby, I’m gonna say Kodak [Black]. This is not including like the Thugs and Futures now. I’m sayin’ 21 Savage,” he said.

Durk and Kodak Black have worked together on numerous occasions in the past. In 2018, Durk enlisted the Sniper Gang founder for their collab, “Benihana” off of Signed To The Streets III. However, their collaborative streak expanded further in 2022 when Durk returned the favor on Back For Everything. The “Laugh Now Cry Later” rapper delivered a stand-out verse on “Take You Back.” Hopefully, the collaboration won’t stay in the vault for too long and we’ll see a release date soon. Check out Lil Durk’s post with Kodak Black on Instagram above and let us know who you wanna see on the follow-up to 7220.

Doechii Quietly Responded To Kodak Black Backlash By Releasing A Solo Version Of ‘What It Is (Block Boy)’

by

Even before the success of her debut TDE single, “Persuasive,” musician Doechii has been unapologetically Black. In fact, her fierce embrace of her culture was one of the things fans loved about the singer the most. However, after the news was shared that her latest single, “What It Is (Block Boy),” would feature rapper Kodak Black, social media was taken back.

Despite the song showing off, as she described, “a side of my vocal range with this one that my fans haven’t really seen yet,” fans couldn’t seem to get past why Doechii would collaborate with the rapper given past remarks he’s made that some consider to anti-Black. Last year after losing to Latto at the BET Hip-Hop Awards for Song Of The Year, he took to Twitter to call her a “hating ass mutt,” in reference to her being biracial.

Kodak has also made comments against deeper-toned women, saying, “Dark skin women are more difficult. I like light skin women. They are more sensitive.”

Fans of Doechii took to Twitter in droves to bring that to her attention.

Although Doechii hasn’t addressed the pushback directly, shortly after the song’s release, she doubled back to social media to share that a version without Kodak Black is now available across streaming platforms.

Now, only the solo version of the track without Kodak Black can be found on the singer’s official YouTube page. One of the top comments on under the video reads, “Way to listen to your fans!!! Proud of you! Showing all the women in the industry how to navigate label vs. what’s true to you/your fans”

Fans circled back to thank the singer for taking action so swiftly.

However, not everyone was pleased. Some expressed that the collaboration should have never happened. While another shared that she shouldn’t have pulled the Kodak Black verse.

Listen to the song above.

Kodak Black’s Best Songs

by

While some may consider Kodak Black’s song controversial, it is impossible to deny that he has had a successful career. Kodak Black is an American rapper and songwriter. At his younger age, Kodak Black has done a lot in his life. Even though he has done various criminal things and tries to be sneaky to get to the top, Kodak has a heartwarming spirit. Also, this has helped him get to the top of his game.

Apparently, Kodak has already delivered a massive number of hits in such a short period. Without further ado, here are Kodak Black’s best all-time tracks.

Kodak Black Song: “Roll in Peace”

With “Roll in Peace,” Kodak brings heavy bass with a catchy hook and a rocking instrumental. Even though the song came out in 2017, many of his fans still listen to it over and over again.

Fundamentally, the melody of the flute, which is slightly out of tune, goes well with the sound of Kodak’s voice, which is rough. “Roll in Peace” has been regarded as one of his best songs since its release.

“Codeine Dreaming” (Feat. Lil Wayne)

In this song, Kodak Black goes into full story mode, with synth plucks that are repeated to make a catchy melody. The simple instrumental allows plenty of space for the artist’s lyrics, and the pitch-changing 808s provide excellent dynamic variation. 

“Codeine Dreaming” also features Lil Wayne’s backing vocals, making it one of the best Kodak Black songs and collaborations. More so, the hook stands out because it has a lot of intensity and a lot of movement.

“NO FLOCKIN’”

Even though this song came out a decade ago, it is still one of Kodak Black greatest song. “NO FLOCKIN,” shows how good he was back then. During a time when the artist was getting more fans, he did a great job of copying the trap sound of the time.

If you’ve heard of any of his recent work, you’ll notice that his rapping skills have changed a lot. Also, the quality of the production shows how far he’s come as an artist. Even though new Kodak fans might not know the song, long-time fans consider it to be one of his best works.

Kodak Black Song: “Tunnel Vision” (2017)

Kodak Black discussed a lot of systemic problems and also talks about his own life in this song. The rapper from South Florida raps about his time in prison and how the criminal justice system is unfair to Black men. In the video for “Tunnel Vision,” Kodak is shown in front of a burning cross. This is a reference to how the KKK burned crosses in front of the homes of Black people in the early 1900s. Later in the video, the rapper talks about a white man wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat who is about to shoot a black man when his gun jams and a little girl yells “Stop!” Interestingly, RIAA has certified this song six times platinum.

“SKRT”

Kodak Black put out “SKRT,” which has a more R&B sound, to appeal to a different group of listeners. In this song, he shows off his ability to harmonize and also writes catchy lines for each stanza.

The music is much quieter than his usual style, with tired piano chords and percussion parts that move with his lines. Also, the song has been certified platinum by the RIAA.

“ZEZE” by Travis Scott and Offset 

Kodak recruits Travis Scott and Offset for “ZEZE” off of his 2018 album ‘Dying to Live’. On this track, all three rappers brag about the best things in life. Luckily, this song debuted at No. 2 on the US Billboard Hot 100, making it the highest-charting single that starts with “Z.” The previous record holder was a cover of “Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah” by Bob B. Soxx and the Blue Jeans, which reached No. 8 in 1963. RIAA has also certified this song six times platinum.

Kodak Black Song: “VOODOO” by Future and Kodak Black (2022)

Future enlisted Kodak Black on the song “VOODOO,” which was on his 2022 album “I Never Liked You.” Kaash Paige, who is an R&B singer, adds more vocals to the song. In this catchy trap song, Future raps about expensive things and drugs, while Kodak compares the devil and the angel. The song debuted at No. 39 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States.

“Versatile”

The song “Versatile” by Kodak Black came out in 2017, and by time in his career, he’s proven himseilf. Many people think this is one of Kodak Black’s best songs because of the raw message and how much it has helped him as an artist. Nonetheless, the instrumental doesn’t change a lot, but the piano melody keeps the song interesting.

 “Skrilla”

Another iconic single from Kodak’s early career, the instrumental on “Skrilla” is instantly recognized during live events. Also, it resonates with any die-hard Kodak fan from the first note alone. Even though the production value is low, Kodak is known for this kind of raw sound. At the same time, the quality of the production is typical of this type of rap music in 2014 and 2015. 

Kodak Black Song: “Like Dat”

Lastly, we are wrapping up this list with another banger from Kodak. “Like Dat” by Kodak Black is an alternative and peaceful instrumental song with a lot of synth-driven chords and melodies. The song moves slowly, but the strong bass line makes it bang your head. Many fans like Kodak’s tougher songs better. However, every now and then, he releases a mellow gem that becomes a fan favorite for years to come.
