Kodak Black Gives Back To The Kids With Free Charity Performance & Sit-Down

Kodak Black has given a group of kids a day to remember while performing and spending time with them in Florida this week.

According to TMZ, the “Super Gremlin” rapper performed an assortment of tracks at the Jack and Jill of America, Inc. Teen Leadership conference on Wednesday night (June 14) at the Diplomat Hotel in Hollywood, FL. The event was hosted to give honor and recognition to the top members of the leadership organization.

After performing a set that consisted of about 10 songs, Kodak stuck around and answered questions posed by the teen leaders about alternative careers, as well as his own inspirations.

Meanwhile, Kodak Black recently discussed the significance of Haitian flag Day and how his Haitian culture has impacted him.

During a May interview with teen journalist Jazzy of Jazzy’s World TV, Kodak discussed misunderstood feelings, giving back to the community, and more. However, at one point the rapper was asked about how his Haitian heritage influenced his upbringing and the importance of embracing one’s own culture

“That’s a whole ‘nother country,” he said. “Like I can’t get away from it. That’s my culture.”

Haitian Flag Day is a Haitian holiday to celebrate the creation of the Flag of Haiti during the Haitian revolution. The day is celebrated each year on May 18, which is the anniversary of the date of the flag’s adoption in 1803.

Kodak then pointed out that he also has to embrace how American culture has impacted him. “I got America, ’cause I was born here, and I got Haiti because that’s where my family [is] from,” he said.

Within the same interview, he conceded defeat in a dance lesson with the 13-year-old reporter. Yak was asked to elaborate on a few of his favorite dances he had growing up, and said the Jook was popular in his neighborhood, but that he and his crew wouldn’t do any of the trending dances at the time.

“A lot of dances passed, but round my area, we wouldn’t do all that crazy stuff, all that crazy looking stuff,” Kodak recalled. “We’d Jook, we’d Jook till we dead. We gonna Jook and stick till we dead. Like you pulling out a choppa with somebody and you dance like this, you dance like you shooting somebody. Not saying that’s a good thing, but it’s just a dance.”

Jazzy, who hails from Brooklyn, NY, then challenged Kodak to try out her borough’s ‘Get Sturdy’ dance craze but the Florida rapper gave up before he even started.

“Oh I can’t do all that,” Kodak said as Jazzy wrapped up her demonstration. “I can’t do all that.” He then quickly conceded defeat after briefly trying out the moves for himself.
