Again, Kodak Black is in the news for some despicable behavior. This time, he went on Instagram and inappropriately flirted with Lauren London, the girlfriend of recently deceased Nipsey Hussle. The official quote is “Lauren London that’s baby, though. She about to be out here single. She’s finna be a whole widow out here. I’ll be the best man I can be for her. I’ll give her a whole year. She might need a whole year to be crying and shit for [Nipsey].”
His rant did not sit well with the community and many have disparaged him for his insensitive comment. The Game and T.I. have both called him out and Charlamagne Tha God named him the “Donkey of the Day”.
Justin Credible, a DJ at Los Angeles’ Power 106, announced on Twitter that the radio station has ceased to play Kodak Black’s music. The tweet read “We stand with the family of Nipsey Hussle and are appalled by the disrespectful and poor comments made by Kodak Black. With that, Power 106 will not support Kodak Black’s music.”
This came after Kodak had called Young M.A. a ‘dyke’ in his most recent song ‘Pimpin’ Ain’t Eazy”. As Charlamagne correctly put, someone needs to sit Kodak down and lecture him on manners. Sure it’s a free country and he shouldn’t be sent to jail for these comments, but that doesn’t mean that the public should support his music. Kodak will have to do more than stopping future insulting remarks to earn back the respect he once had.
