Kodak Black<\/a> has been arrested in Florida on drug trafficking charges, inmate records show.<\/p>\n

The 28-year-old rapper \u2014 real name Bill Kapri \u2014 was booked Wednesday into the Orange County Jail. He is being held without bond. Black, who has a history of drug-related charges<\/a>, is facing a new charge of trafficking<\/a> 10g of MDMA, according to jail records.<\/p>\n

Black\u2019s representative did not immediately respond to The Independent\u2019s request for comment.<\/p>\n

Trafficking any amount equal to or more than 10g of MDMA, a synthetic drug with stimulant and hallucinogenic properties, is considered a serious first-degree felony in the state of Florida and carries a mandatory minimum prison sentence of three years and a fine of $50,000.<\/p>\n

Wednesday\u2019s arrest is related to a November 2025 incident that occurred outside the Orlando non-profit Children\u2019s Safety Village, according to an affidavit seen by local outlet WESH<\/a>. Authorities were called to the location after reports of gunfire. When they arrived, they spotted two vehicles in the parking lot. After detecting the smell of marijuana, the officers searched the cars.<\/p>\n

Black approached the officers amid their search, during which they discovered a pair of pink scissors and rings that allegedly matched items seen in a photo on the rapper\u2019s Instagram a week prior. They allegedly also uncovered drugs inside the vehicles.<\/p>\n

The \u201cWake Up in the Sky\u201d artist\u2019s lawyer, Bradford Cohen, told TMZ<\/a> that one of the vehicles searched by authorities had only one passenger who wasn\u2019t Black. During their search, he said that officers found a bag containing a bottle of prescription cough syrup, which they alleged had Kodak\u2019s fingerprint on it.<\/p>\n

Cohen slammed the arrest as a \u201ccoordinated surrender,\u201d saying that the trafficking charges had a \u201cweak legal basis\u201d and \u201cshould have never been filed.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe look forward to yet another fruitful resolution to another case that should have never been filed,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

In December 2023, Black was arrested in Florida<\/a> on charges of cocaine possession, tampering with physical evidence and improperly stopping or parking his vehicle. He was also arrested in 2022 on charges of trafficking in oxycodone and possession of a controlled substance without a prescription. He was freed on a $75,000 bond, and regular drug testing was a condition of his release.<\/p>\n

Black was ordered to drug rehab for 30 days in early 2023 after missing a drug test that February and then testing positive for fentanyl several days later, according to court records.<\/p>\n

He was previously sentenced to three years in federal prison for falsifying documents used to buy weapons. Black had served about half of his sentence before President Donald Trump commuted<\/a> it on the final day of his first term in office.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kodak Black has been arrested in Florida on drug trafficking charges, inmate records show.
