Kodak Black appears to have distanced himself from Donald Trump over the presidential candidate’s wild claims about Haitian immigrants eating pets in Springfield, Ohio.
On Monday (September 23), footage emerged of Kodak — who himself is of Haitian heritage — taking issue with Trump’s baseless comments that were made in his recent debate with Kamala Harris.

“If I wanted to eat a cat, that’s what I’m gonna eat,” he said. “I’m Haitian, homie. I was Haitian before it was cool to be Haitian. I ain’t prejudiced, I ain’t biased and I ain’t racist. I love Israel, I love all countries. I love everybody because I’m a warrior of Christ.
“Whatever a muthafucka’s appetite is, that’s their appetite […] Y’all ain’t never saw a muthafucka eat a cat before. When y’all seen a muthafucka eat a cat? Even if you have eaten a cat, so what?

Yak then suggested that he would no longer be supporting Trump in this year’s election: “We ain’t voting for nothing. I ain’t gonna lie, Haitians, we came too far, bro. We came too fucking far, homie […] We ain’t taking no Haitian slander.”

Kodak Black initially reacted to Donald Trump’s outlandish comments about Haitian people during a concert in Columbus, Ohio earlier this month.
He began by playing a clip of Trump saying: “Of course I’m angry. We got 21 million people that came into our country invading our communities, invading our cities and our towns, and destroying our country.

“I’m angry about Venezuelan gangs taking over Aurora, Colorado, and I’m angry about illegal Haitian migrants taking over Springfield, Ohio. You see that mess, don’t you?”
Kodak then responded to Trump’s remarks, commenting: “That shit crazy. That shit true? Man, I ain’t gonna lie, homie, I’m a muthafucking Trump supporter.”
After boos from the crowd, the Florida rapper continued: “I’m Haitian. How y’all feel about this election shit? I feel like we fucked anyway. I ain’t with that Kamala Harris shit either. What the fuck going on in America?”
He then pledged to investigate the claims personally: “I’m finna go to Springfield tomorrow, I’m going over there. I gotta see this shit. I ain’t smelling that. I ain’t see no Haitian eat no cat, homie. When y’all show me a Haitian eating a cat, then y’all can say that shit.”

Prior to this, Kodak had been a vocal supporter of the former president, who in 2021 commuted his three-year prison sentence for falsifying documents to buy guns.
