Fans and social media users are seemingly alarmed by a recent video showing rapper Kodak Black eating chicken while sitting in the middle of the road. The clip was initially posted on X by Rain Drops Media. After being reposted by @scubaryan_ on February 10, it sparked debates regarding the artist's welfare.
At the time of this post, the video had received over 12.4 million views on X. As the video circulated, many fans took to social media to express their concerns, with some believing that the rapper may be struggling with personal issues. One commented under the X post and said that he needed people who cared about him.
“This is so sad bro, drugs are taking him… He needs people around him who care,” wrote one user.
Others also said similar things as one said that his record label, manager, or social media team, no one cared for him, while another one said that most people just wanted to use him.
“So, his record label, manager, social media team, mentors, family, and friends are all seeing this. Not a soul will get this man some help. He obviously can’t make the conscious decision himself,” claimed one user.
“A lot of ni*gas are so toxic. They don’t care about you. Most of them just want to use you. And be around you like leeches,” fired another one.
“Bro needs to see the doc,” said another one.
Meanwhile, other netizens also echoed the same sentiment as one hopes that it was staged and not some real issue, while another one claimed that it was “the saddest thing.”
“I hope this is a skit,” one said, trying to hope for him.
“So everybody seeing this but nobody in his circle tryna help him??” asked one concerned netizen.
“This is the saddest thing I’ve seen in a long time. Money ain’t sh*t,” another X user said.
