Kodak Black In Concert
Florida rapper Kodak Black's rise continues apace. Released in December 2018, his second album, ‘Dying to Live,' shot to No. 1 on the Billboard charts, thanks in large part to the irresistible steel-drummed jam "ZEZE" (featuring Travis Scott and Migos' Offset) and the tropical-trap earworm "MoshPit" (with Juice WRLD). Kodak is hitting the road in 2019, supplementing his minimalist beats with live guitar and keyboards on a spring 2019 tour of small theaters and superclubs.
Kodak Black Background
Southern Florida has been at the forefront of the moody lo-fi hip-hop subgenre known as SoundCloud rap, and while Pompano Beach MC Kodak Black has skirted the peripheries of that scene, he's really a product of Instagram. The raspy-voiced, face-tattooed rapper born Dieuson Octave acquired the neighborhood nickname Lil Black as a kid growing up in the Golden Acres housing project, before adopting the Kodak Black moniker as his Instagram handle and stage name. In 2013, when he was just 16, Kodak released ‘Project Baby,' the first in a series of mixtapes that showcased his raw, lyrical perspective he came by honestly. His big break came in 2015, when, following the viral success of his freestyled single "No Flockin," he signed on with Atlantic Records, and his induction into hip-hop's upper echelons was further confirmed when Drake posted an Instagram video of himself dancing to Kodak's trap slow jam "Skrt." Kodak finally dropped his proper full-length debut, ‘Painting Pictures,' in 2017 – a star-studded effort (with guest spots by Young Thug, Future, and Jeezy) that debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard Top 200. A few months later, he released another mixtape, ‘Project Baby 2,' featuring "Roll in Peace," his hit collaboration with SoundCloud rap's reigning enfant terrible at the time, XXXTENTACION. But Kodak's most notable achievement of 2017 wasn't even his own track — Cardi B's world-beating smash single "Bodak Yellow" didn't just reference Kodak in its title, the entire song was built on his "No Flockin" flow.
