Kodak Black has been arrested in Florida for drug trafficking.
On Wednesday (May 6), Yak was booked in Orange County, Fla., according to police records obtained by XXL. He faces one count of trafficking MDMA, a synthetic, psychoactive drug with stimulant and hallucinogenic properties.
Kodak’s attorney, Bradford Cohen, tells XXL the South Florida rapper turned himself in in connection with a 2025 case where police searched a car that Kodak was not a passenger in and discovered a bag containing a bottle of prescription cough syrup, which allegedly had Yak’s fingerprint on it.
“This is a case that legally is not sufficient to charge possession of the item,” Cohen says. “Then, instead of simple possession, they doubled down and filed it as a trafficking charge. I will be fighting the charge. This is an ongoing theme where cases that would normally not be filed due to a weak legal basis are filed against Mr. Kapri. We look forward to yet another fruitful resolution to another case that should have never been filed.”
Kodak has a long history of run-ins with the law in Florida. In the past several years, he has been arrested for drug possession, weapons possession, tresspassing and assault. Prior to his arrest on Wednesday, Kodak’s most recent encounter with police came in 2023, when he was arrested for cocaine possession and witness tampering. That case was thrown out the following April.
