Kodak Black Tears Up on Live, Mourns XXXTentacion and Crushes on Zendaya




During a recent Instagram Live, Florida rapper Kodak Black got emotional remembering Jahseh Onfroy, aka XXXTentacion, who was fatally shot in 2018 at age 20 in Broward County. Kodak said he'd be happier if X were alive and joked that his 'rock star' pal would have ensured he met Zendaya, a crush he's had since at least 2020 with poems from prison and audition jokes. The two Broward natives collaborated on the 2017 track 'Roll in Peace,' and Kodak has publicly mourned him before, like in a 2023 post calling him a legend. Clips mix grief over X's absence seven years on with laughs at Kodak's candid celebrity thirst.
