Kodak Black Reunites With His Childhood Babysitter
Yak pulled up to the Golden Acres housing project in Florida for a community event, per The Express Tribune. While there, he shared an encounter with a woman who held him down and used to babysit him when he was a child.
Kodak stood by the car as his former babysitter was seated inside, laying hands on his chest and praying for him. “They trying to mess you up, but they can’t, God is with you,” she told him, while Yak nodded, seemingly soaking in every word. After the prayer, he leaned in for a big hug, flashing a smile after receiving her encouraging words.

Kodak Black Speaks Out After Raising Concerns During Kai Cenat’s Stream
Back in November 2024, Kodak Black popped up on Kai Cenat’s ‘Mafiathon 2’ Twitch livestream. Kodak’s appearance instantly raised concerns among fans, who pointed out his behavior and overall look. During the livestream, Kai Cenat even questioned some of his actions, but Kodak reassured him, “It was a glitch for the Twitch.”
Soon after his kickin’ it with Kai, Kodak jumped on Instagram Live to address fans’ concerns. In a video shared by @scubaryan_ on X (formerly Twitter), Yak kept it real, telling fans he’s not perfect.
“Ain’t nobody under the sun perfect.”
