Kodak Black Arrested on MDMA Trafficking Charge

Rapper Kodak Black, whose legal name is Bill Kapri, was arrested Wednesday in Orange County, Florida, on a charge of trafficking MDMA, a synthetic stimulant also known as ecstasy. The 28-year-old artist, a multiplatinum seller with hits like "No Flockin" and "Tunnel Vision," remained in custody at the Orange County Corrections Department as of Wednesday evening, according to booking records.

The charge stems from a November 2025 traffic stop in which officers searched a vehicle carrying a single passenger who was not Kapri, his attorney Bradford Cohen said. Authorities found a bag containing several items, including a bottle of prescription cough syrup bearing Kapri's fingerprint, Cohen told reporters. He described the arrest as a coordinated surrender and characterized the case as having a weak legal basis. "We look forward to yet another fruitful resolution to another case that should have never been filed," Cohen said.

Court officials have not released details on bond, a first appearance hearing, or defense representation. Prosecutors and investigators declined to comment on the evidence or potential additional charges.
