Kodak Black has stepped up to support his community by paying the rent for over 200 residents at the Golden Acres housing project in Florida for the second consecutive month. The heartwarming news went viral over the weekend when a resident or staff member from Golden Acres shared the information, praising the rapper for his generosity. “He may not want the limelight, but for the 2nd month straight @KodakBlack has paid the rent for over 200 residents in Golden Acres the entire projects!” the post read. “A lot of people shine light on the negativity. I’ma see how many people share the positive things you do fam. You’re a blessing to a lot of people. Thank you!!”
This act of kindness is not an isolated incident for Kodak Black, who has demonstrated his philanthropic spirit in the past. In 2022, he paid off the rent arrears of 28 families at the same housing community, ensuring they wouldn’t face eviction. “28 Families Was Bout To Get Evicted For Being Behind On Their Rent A Few Months,” he explained in a previous post. “I Paid What They Owed And Also Paid Their Rents For The Next Few Months So They Good For The Remaining Of The Year.”
Additionally, in July 2021, Kodak donated 100 air conditioning units to residents in Golden Acres, spending around $12,500 on the project. His collaboration with Francky Pierre, who runs a philanthropic outreach charity, made this initiative possible and brought joy to many residents.
In a shift from his previous persona, Kodak has expressed a desire to be recognized more as a philanthropist than a gangster. During an Instagram Live session in 2023, he stated, “People care to be a gangsta, they care for n-ggas looking at them like they some type of gangsta… I’m a philanthropist, a good n-gga, righteous, all that. I only worry about being a good son and making sure my mom is proud of me.”
As Kodak Black continues to support his community, his recent actions exemplify a commitment to giving back and highlighting the positive impact that a public figure can have on those in need. Fans and residents alike are hopeful that his charitable efforts will continue in the future.
