On Thursday (July 13), a video went viral on social media of the twin brothers, Kodiyakredd (real name Franky Venegas) and Flyysoulja (real name Alex Venegas), tongue kissing each other.

The Island Boys’ incestual stunt sparked both shock and outrage online, with many viewers expressing their disgust at what they saw. The uproar even resulted in them becoming a trending topic on Twitter.
“Somebody need to blow the island boys up for what I just saw,” one horrified person wrote, while another couldn’t help but ask: “Did I just see the island boys making out with each other ? Ain’t they brothers?”

Akademiks’ repost of the video on Instagram drew plenty of strong reactions from the rap community, with Southside, BlocBoy JB, Famous Dex and Eem Triplin weighing in.
“Bruh come on Ak get these clowns off the net please,” Southside commented on his post, while BlocBoy wrote: “N-ggas do anything.”
“Wtf is this I’m bout to shot myself [facepalm emoji],” Dex added, followed by a comment from Triplin that read: “this just ruined my life.”

Flyysoulja also jumped into Ak’s comments section to address the blowback to the viral stunt, admitting he and his brother simply did it for “attention.”
“Hahahaa I got everyone paying attention I knew it [crying face emojis],” he wrote, while adding in a separate comment: “So it took a kiss for everybody to pay attention? I guess selling your soul is real.”
The video comes shortly after the Island Boys caused a similar stir when they posted a video of them sharing a peck on the lips. “We actually kissed no lie,” Flyysoulja tweeted while tagging Kodiyakredd and sharing a link to his aforementioned OnlyFans page.
It also arrives less than two weeks after a health scare for Kodiyakredd, who suffered a seizure earlier this month. The news was made public by Flyysoulja, who posted a crying selfie on his Instagram Story with the caption: “Redd had a seizure [broken heart emoji] I can’t rn.”

In a follow-up post, he asked fans for their help, writing: “Pray for him [praying hands emoji] I love em.” A few hours later, the TikToker shared another, more promising update, letting fans know that his brother was “okay.” It’s unknown what exactly caused the seizure.
