Lil Yachty Goes To Bat For Kodak Black With Trump Tweet

Publish date: 2024-07-04

"Hey @realDonaldTrump my friend @KodakBlack1k deserves to be commuted," wrote Lil Yachty on Twitter. "The system punished him way to hard for a paperwork crime #freekodak."

Kodak was sentenced to over three years in prison after he falsified information on an application to purchase guns, claiming that he was not a convicted felon despite that being untrue. Many believe that his punishment, and his treatment in prison, has been far too harsh for such a crime.
