Kodak Black has offered some unorthodox advice to a youth football team, telling the kids to stay away from drugs because they’re “too good.”
In a video that went viral on social media, the “Super Gremlin” rapper delivers a motivational speech to a little league team in his native Florida, but his words of wisdom were anything but conventional.

“Say no to drugs, they too good. Y’all gone like them and go crazy,” he told the kids, prompting laughter from some of the adults watching on.
Turning serious, Yak then said: “This right here will teach y’all discipline and all that good shit. You gotta go to school to you play football. You gotta have your education. This is what you’ll learn: team, brotherhood and all that.

“You know what team means? Team means Together Everyone Achieve More. Ain’t no one bigger than the team.”
The rapper then places a chain around the neck of one of the players and daps him up.

Kodak Black was speaking from experience having dealt with drug issues himself.
In April, the 27-year-old admitted that his addiction to Percocet had spiraled to the point he was consuming dozens of pills each day until he was able to get a handle on his habit.
“I remember a point in my life when I was chewing a lot of Percs,” he said on Instagram Live. “I’m proud of myself. I’ve never been this happy in my life. I don’t know where this came from, what the fuck going on.
“I ain’t even going to say I’m anti-Perc. I never took a Perc since I been home. But my dosage so low that I can’t believe it myself. Man, I’m telling y’all, bro.”

He continued: “Before I just went to jail — I can talk about this because it’s my testimony, ain’t no shame in my shit — I was taking at least 100 Percs. My average was 40 Percocets… to the point where I look at this shit and be like, ‘What the fuck was wrong with me, bruh?'”
Despite his attempts to get clean, Kodak seemingly relapsed on his sobreity last month when he filmed himself swallowing multiple pills, telling viewers he’s “finna glitch right quick.”
