Kodak Black began his career as a livestreamer in very dramatic fashion — with his car on fire.
The Florida rapper’s first appearance on Kick, posted on Saturday (October 5), is a 45-minute video entitled “1st Stream & My Car Caught On Fire [facepalm emoji],” and it’s an accurate title.

The clip begins with the rapper’s Chevrolet Impala in flames, while a fireman sprays it with a hose.
“We live on the scene, y’all,” the video’s narrator begins. “Shit just caught on fucking fire.”

“We was driving on the highway, Yak [Kodak] pulled the bitch over ’cause it was driving crazy, and then next thing you knew, it was in flames.”
Kodak himself is holding what appears to be a sword, is smoking, and seems unharmed.

The rapper followed that eventful video up several hours later with a more sedate one of him and his friends playing video games.

In other news, 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.
Late last month, footage emerged of Kodak — who 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.”
Prior to this, Kodak had been a very vocal supporter of the former president, who in 2021 commuted his three-year prison sentence for falsifying documents to buy guns.
