Kodak Black has been in the news lately for his disturbing appearance with streamer Kai Cenat, so Gillie and Wallo of the podcast Million Dollaz worth game decided to pay the enigmatic rapper a visit.
One part of the 45-minute interview making the rounds is where Wallo – who turned his life around after 20 years in prison – gives him one of his famous motivational speeches. “Look at me, man,” she said as she held Kodak's hand while looking into his eyes. “Listen: You are special. Never doubt yourself, and you made them babies to rely on you. Now, there will be times when you doubt yourself, you will hurt, but the babies will count on you. You should be here.”
He added: “And I'm telling you because a lot of people are surrounding you and seeing your success… A lot of people need you and 'yeah man.' I'm not here to “yes man” you. You know me, every time we connect, you know I have love for you, not because I need you. I have love for you because you are a young cat. And I was young. Gil was young. Live, live! And I'm telling you because you see the love that lady gave you? See how you light up when I talk about your babies? Live. These people want to laugh, they want to joke, they want to criticize. They don't know your pain. I don't know your pain, but I do know one thing. They're babies who count on you, your family counts on you, and you're talented.”
Wallo then told Kodak not to take what he has accomplished for granted and to be a positive example for his children. “Many brothers are no longer here who had the opportunity you had,” he began. “Some of them in jail, some of them dead, and they look at us like we're just some people—because that won't let me. We are drug addicts, we are criminals. That's what they think about us. We need to learn how to change the narrative, bro. You have a lot of young people watching. … Don't hurt yourself, brother.''
Kodak has faced a number of legal issues and battled addiction over the years. His erratic behavior during his visit with Cenat caused some concern from his peers and fans. One positive, however, was Rihanna speaking out in his freestyle about being sexted while waiting for a bus. Many accused the rapper's theme of being highbrow, but he was actually referring to an old popular YouTube video titled “Sex?…Just waiting for the bus…..(Haiti vs. Hooker.)”
