Rapper Kodak Black Is In Trouble With The Law Again

Rapper Kodak Black Is In Trouble With The Law Again. Kodak Black’s legal history is extensive and has often overshadowed his musical career. In 2021, he received a high-profile commutation from President Donald Trump for a federal sentence related to falsifying documents to buy firearms.

Kodak Black Arrested on Drug Trafficking Charges

South Florida rapper Kodak Black (born Bill Kapri) is facing serious legal trouble once again. This all happened after being arrested in Central Florida on Wednesday, May 6, 2026. The 28-year-old artist was booked into the Orange County Jail. He is now facing a felony charge of trafficking in MDMA.

You would think the rapper learned his lesson. Especially after his release in early 2025, he was released from jail. We all know he was charged with drug possession, but the charge was dismissed. All because he was able to prove he had a valid prescription for the medication in question.

Despite these frequent brushes with the law, he has remained a prominent figure in his community.  Kodak even received a key to the city of Pompano Beach for his charitable efforts.

The Arrest Details

The arrest stems from a warrant related to an investigation that began in November 2025. According to police records:

• The Incident: Officers originally responded to reports of gunfire in Orlando near the Children’s Safety Village.

• The Search: During the investigation, police searched a Lamborghini SUV and discovered a bag containing approximately 25 grams of MDMA and roughly $37,000 in cash.

• The Evidence: Investigators reportedly linked the bag to the rapper by comparing items inside it to photos posted on his Instagram accounts.

Current Status

Kodak Black is currently being held without bond. He is expected to make his first court appearance on the afternoon of Thursday, May 7, 2026. His legal team, led by attorney Bradford Cohen, has expressed confidence in a “fruitful resolution. “

Whereas Bradford suggests the case should not have been filed.

A History of Legal Battles

This latest incident adds to a long history of legal challenges for the “Super Gremlin” rapper:

• 2021 Pardon: His federal sentence for falsifying documents to purchase firearms was commuted by President Donald Trump.

• 2025 Release: Just last year, he was freed from jail after a drug possession charge involving oxycodone was dismissed because he held a valid prescription.

• Community Impact: Despite his frequent run-ins with the law, he was recently honored with a key to the city of Pompano Beach in July 2025 for his extensive philanthropic work.

Source Summary: Reports from Local 10 News, CBS News Miami, and BET confirm he is being held on trafficking charges involving between 14 and 200 grams of MDMA.
