While he’s experienced his share of controversy and legal troubles in recent years, Kodak seems to be adjusting well following his release from prison in 2021. Back in 2018, the rapper announced that he had obtained his GED while incarcerated, a goal he also celebrated on social media, thanking his teachers and congratulating himself for the accomplishment.
“I just received my high school diploma today and although it is a big accomplishment for me I am yearning for more,” he wrote at the time. “I appreciate my teachers Mr. Williams and Mr. Ward for those times when I would get frustrated you worked diligently to make sure I had the right materials and was ready for this big day. Those Saturday classes and putting in over time studying paid of. Momma I know I’m late but I got it.”
In 2022, Kodak Black enjoyed a successful year, with his album Back For Everything debuting at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart. His award-nominated hit “Super Gremlin” peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was among his best-performing records to date.
