Love him or loathe him, Kodak Black remains a favorite among many rap fans — including peers such as Drake.
The Florida rapper jumped on Instagram Live on Monday night (January 10), where the 6 God heaped high praise on Kodak, crowning him a hero of not only this current generation, but the next.
“You really all that for this generation,” Drake wrote in the comments section. “And the next one if we being honest.” Kodak made sure all his followers could see Drizzy’s compliment by “pinning” the comment in his livestream.
This isn’t the first time Drake has shown love to Kodak Black. Back in 2015, the Toronto megastar played Kodak’s “SKRT” on his OVO Sound Radio show, giving a major boost to the then-rising rapper’s career.
Then, in 2018, Drake ranked the Pompano Beach native’s Dying To Live among his favorite projects of the last five years. “Your purpose is so fire,” he told Kodak via text. “Like you almost talking from this god level birds eye view of your own life.”
The love is clearly mutual; last year, Kodak Black expressed his desire for Drake (or Nas) to become his mentor. “Can’t Wait To Nas Put Me Under His Wing Him Or Drake,” he tweeted. “I’m Fucked Up Bout Dem Two N-ggas.”
Drake‘s Instagram Live praise comes on the heels of a major win for Kodak Black, whose “Super Gremlin” track climbed into the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 on Monday.
The song, which dropped in October and appears on the Sniper Gang Presents Syko Bob & Snapkatt: Nightmare Babies album, rose from No. 16 to No. 10 on this week’s chart.
“Super Gremlin” is Kodak’s first top 10 hit in four years and his third overall following 2018’s “ZEZE” (No. 2) and 2017’s “Tunnel Vision” (No. 6).
fuck drake and fuck kodak black drake need to shut the fck up before he get his card pulled
Who peed in your cheerios broke boy
clowns big up clowns – drake on thin ice
Dear Drake…..Please STFU….Sign Everyone.
A trash act telling another trash act they’re goat. Why am I not surprised
In this sense GOAT is to be taken literally.
If Kodak didnt have his weird Simpsons hairstyles, he would have never made it. Its 99% image and 1% music quality with him. Now we have the Island Boys too. Lesson learned: the more stupid your hair looks, the more social media will embrace you even if your music is lackluster.
Yo dont mention Island boys and Yak in the same breath is you stupid?
He didn’t have that hair when he first drop ass wipe
He’s not far from the truth y’all
Kodak is hot garbage, drake on some dumb ish.
Well considering the criteria required to be a modern day Goat Drake just might be right
souljah boy.
Drake sounds like a washing machine cycle alert when it end’s the wash and is ready to be placed in the dryer.
I assume GOAT stands for Grossest of all time? If so, heavy co-sign.
The music industry is just like hollywood; infatuated with creeps and weirdos
