Donald Trump and his lame administration are working hard to set the advancement of Black culture back years with the removal of DEI programs, but that’s not stopping these Black celebrities from joining him at the White House to celebrate Black History Month.
The Associated Press reports that Donald Trump’s White House will host a Black History Month event on Thursday, and the who’s who of sellouts will be in attendance to celebrate the jig.
According to the website, Trump’s heada** pick to be ambassador to t Herschel Walker, Trump’s favorite African American, Tim Scott of South Carolina, Republican Rep. John James of Michigan, prison reform advocate and recipient of a Trump pardon in 2020 thanks to Kim Kardashian Alice Johnson, and Martin Luther King Jr.’s niece, Alveda King will join Felon 47 in the East Room for the event.
Other notable sellouts in attendance will be former ESPN host Sage Steele, Kodak Black, Lil Boosie, who recently begged Trump for a pardon on X, formerly Twitter, and Rod Wave, fresh off from performing at the Crypto Ball alongside Snoop Dogg.
The event was scheduled for last week but was postponed due to inclement weather.
Social media has been responding accordingly to the list of names who will be at the event.
“Sorry but ever single attendee (including that fuck ass president) is a cte having criminal degenerate,” one person on X wrote, adding a long rap sheet of problematic behavior from Rod Wave.
Luke Cage showrunner Cheo Hodari Coker added, “Glad to hear our best and brightest will represent us….and if you don’t hear the sarcasm in my voice, you clearly don’t follow me on here.
The list of Black Trumpers continues to grow. Never forget these people were on the wrong side of history.

Recently, a video surfaced of Kodak Black, the Florida rapper, sitting on the floor of a busy Atlanta street eating chicken, which quickly sparked concern among his fans. Many speculated that the rapper was struggling with drug addiction, with some suggesting he appeared disoriented or unwell. As the video circulated online, fans voiced their worries, with even Kanye West offering to help. Ye posted on social media, expressing his intent to fly down to Atlanta to support Kodak, “I’m booking my flight to Atlanta right now to help Kodak,” Ye said. “I know I said f**k rappers man, but I need y’all right now. Someone has to go and do something. I know y’all always think I’m crashing out, and I’m just expressing myself, I’m cathartic. Look man, please don’t, just let me go down there and help this man out.”
However, Kodak’s team quickly responded to the growing speculation, clarifying that the video was actually part of a scene for an upcoming music video. They assured the public that the rapper was fine and not dealing with any personal struggles. This incident is not the first time Kodak Black has faced accusations of drug use. Earlier, during an appearance on Kai Cenat’s livestream, he was seen taking what appeared to be a pill, which further fueled rumors of addiction.
Kodak has long been a figure surrounded by controversy, often finding himself in the spotlight for his behavior and public appearances. Despite the rumors and speculation, the rapper continues to maintain his stance and pushes forward with his career, leaving fans to question the reality behind his actions and the constant scrutiny he faces. The incident with the chicken and the street, however, serves as a reminder of how quickly the public can jump to conclusions without knowing the full context.

Kanye West recently stepped up to help Kodak Black after a viral video surfaced showing Kodak sitting in the middle of an Atlanta street, eating chicken like everything was normal. Fans have been worried about Kodak for a while, especially with his past “crash-out” moments and his unpredictable behavior. His appearance on Kai Cenat’s stream only added to the concern, as he looked completely out of it, even going viral for doing a trick shot, catching a pill in his mouth.
Kanye saw the video and was clearly concerned, so he took to Instagram to let people know he was going to do something about it. “I’m booking my flight to Atlanta right now to help Kodak,” Ye said. “I know I said f**k rappers man, but I need y’all right now. Someone has to go and do something. I know y’all always think I’m crashing out, and I’m just expressing myself, I’m cathartic. Look man, please don’t, just let me go down there and help this man out.”
Ye’s message shows that even though he’s had his own struggles, he still has the heart to reach out and try to help someone who’s clearly in need. Despite his past statements about distancing himself from the rap game, Ye is willing to help Kodak get back on track. This act of concern speaks volumes about the importance of supporting each other, especially in an industry where mental health and addiction can be overlooked. Kanye’s move is all about stepping up and making sure Kodak gets the help he deserves.

Kodak Black recently found himself at the center of rumors claiming he had converted to Islam after a picture of him praying in a Muslim-like position surfaced online. The image quickly spread, sparking speculation about his religious beliefs. However, the Florida rapper was quick to set the record straight.
He took to social media to clarify the situation, expressing his frustration with the misinformation. In his post, he stated, “NO DISRESPECT TO THE MUSLIM COMMUNITY BUT IAM HEBREW ISRAELITE I FEEL VERY DISRESPECTED BY THE BLOG AND @bollywoodsaif FOR ALLOWING THEM TO RUN WITH A NARRATIVE THAT I’VE CONVERTED TO ISLAM!!!”
Kodak explained that the photo was taken when the person who posted it, @bollywoodsaif, asked him to take a picture on a prayer rug. Making it clear that the image was not an indication of any religious conversion but simply a photo op. Yak, who identifies as a Hebrew Israelite, emphasized that his beliefs were being misrepresented. His response was aimed at both correcting the public’s perception and addressing the blog’s role in spreading the rumor. Despite the controversy, Kodak stood firm in his identity and rejected the false narrative surrounding his faith.
Fans have been worried about Black lately, especially after tweakin’ off on Kai Cenat’s stream. He’s been open about his past with drugs, and it looks like things might be getting worse. Then, he randomly showed up in Baltimore for a Ravens game to support his boy Lamar Jackson. When fans saw him, they were shocked because his eyes were wide open, and he kept screaming, “I live in Baltimore!” It had people worried because he didn’t seem like himself, and fans were scared he might be going through some tough times.

Kodak Black can breath a sigh of relief when it comes to his legal concerns. His recent drug possession case has been dismissed.
As reported by XXL, the Pompano Beach, Florida, native is no longer facing charges behind his latest run in with the law. Back in December 2023 the man legally now known as Bill Kapri was arrested in Plantation, Florida, for allegedly illegally parking his Bentley. Police approached the vehicle and claim they found the “Super Gremlin” MC asleep with a white powdery substance around his lips which the badges said later tested positive for cocaine.
On Wednesday, April 17, his longtime lawyer, Bradford Cohen, shared an update via his Instagram account. “Count 2 is now dismissed of Kodaks ‘possession of cocaine’ that wasn’t a cocaine case that should have never been filed or brought by the Broward State Atty Office,” he wrote in the caption. “We showed them his script prior to filing, and they decided to file anyway… even knowing the officer was wrong about the substance and his story changing and making no sense. That case is now completely dismissed.” The accompanying visual was a screenshot of a court document confirming the dismissal.
Kodak Black is still on probation due to a firearms charge he caught back in 2019 while at Rolling Loud Miami. He has yet to formally comment on the charges being dismissed.

Kodak Black bumped into some legal trouble last December after police discovered him asleep at the wheel of his car with a substance that was originally said to be cocaine in his mouth. Now, the attorney for the Florida rapper says that his client should have his charges dropped since he was using prescribed oxycodone.
As reported by TMZ, Kodak Black is seeking to have the drug charges from his Dec. 7 arrest tossed from the court. According to Bradford Cohen, Kodak’s attorney, a lab test concluded that the drugs found on his client’s person were lab-tested and proven to be prescription oxycodone thus making the criminal drug charges moot.
However, cops say they too tested the drugs at the scene of the arrest and claim that the powdery substance they found was allegedly reported to be cocaine thus leading to Kodak being hauled off to jail. He was later booked on possession, evidence tampering, and a traffic violation.
The situation for Kodak is most certainly impacted by the fact he’s already on probation but Cohen asserts that the substance that police discovered was oxycodone under the brand name Percocet. Cohen is asking the judge to clear his client of the existing charges.
The outcome for Kodak Black has yet to be revealed as a judge hasn’t ruled on the matter yet.

Kodak Black was back in court for his probation violation. His attorney has requested that he be sent to a drug treatment facility.
NBC Miami is reporting that the Pompano Beach, Florida native appeared in federal court on Tuesday, December 19. He was arrested on Thursday, December 7 after local police found what they believe to be cocaine in his luxury SUV.
Since then he has been held at a federal detention center. During the hearing his lawyer Bradford Cohen admitted that the “Super Gremlin” rapper does have a substance abuse problem that he picked up when he served time in prison back in 2020. He then requested for permission that Kodak Black be allowed to attend a 90-day drug treatment program in Arizona.
According to The Miami Herald the presiding Federal Magistrate Judge Jacqueline Becerra denied the request saying “If you’re buying drugs or using drugs, you’re a danger to the community”. Assistant U.S. Attorney Bruce Brown also thought sending Kodak Black away was a bad idea saying “If we let him out today to go out to Arizona, we don’t know what’s going to happen”.
The MC’s legal issues stem from 2019 where Kodak Black caught a charge for lying on a background check when he purchased guns from a weapons store in Hialeah. He will remain at the Miami Federal Correction Center until further notice.

Habitual prison visitor/rapper Kodak Black found himself back behind bars after violating the terms of his probation.
Local news affiliate NBC South Florida 6 reports Kodak Black, born Bill Kapri, is currently being held at a Miami Federal Detention Center after bonding out of jail after being pinched for cocaine possession and other charges.
The “No Flockin’” rapper was found in his vehicle, passed out with booger sugar, aka cocaine, in his mouth and a baggie in his pocket.
The rapper pleaded not guilty to the charges and claimed he did not have cocaine despite the visible strong evidence against him.
Per NBC South Florida 6:
The Dec. 7 arrest happened in Plantation after an officer spotted a black Bentley SUV parked in the roadway in the 600 block of Northwest 47th Terrace, an arrest report said.
The officer approached the SUV and found the rapper asleep in the driver’s seat, noting that “a strong odor of burnt cannabis” was coming from the vehicle, the report said.
The officer opened the SUV’s door and shut it off. Inside was a cup in the door that smelled of alcohol, along with “cannabis wrapping paper and suspect cannabis residue” in the center console, the report said.
The officer approached and noticed Black’s mouth was “full of white powder,” the report said.
The substance later tested positive for cocaine, the report said. Black also had a clear plastic baggie in his pocket that also was tested, the report said.
Kodak’s History of Arrests
This latest arrest joins the list of his previous interactions with the law. Black was arrested in 2022 on a trespassing charge.
He also served a three-year federal prison sentence for falsifying documents to buy firearms at a Miami gun store.
In a stranger turn of events, aka pandering on another level, the orange menace and the worst president in United States history, not name James Buchanan, Donald Trump, commuted his sentence on the final day of his failed presidency.
Welp.
Trump isn’t here to save Kodak Black this time, and Joe Biden has bigger things to worry about than pardoning this knucklehead rapper.

The arrest report would go on to provide further details on what occurred when the MC was detained. “I placed Kapri in handcuffs and observed white, rock-like substances on the ground,” the police document read. “Kapri uttered that it was “Percocet”. Naturally the news of the “Super Gremlin” talent allegedly getting caught with drugs quickly went viral. According to XXL Magazine Kodak Black addressed the accusations on Instagram Live.
“If that s**t ain’t me, don’t put that on me,” Kodak told his followers. “Don’t convict me of some s**t that ain’t me” he said. “Them people went cocaine on me. That’s the only s**t that I’m flaming about…I done told y’all, I did meth before. I ain’t into that s**t. I ain’t riding around with no cocaine. These people don’t have no body-cam, none of that. It’s 2023, fam.”

On Wednesday (December 6), Kodak Black was arrested for cocaine possession in Plantation, Florida after cops found him asleep at the wheel of his luxury SUV. The jokes write themselves.
The rapper, born Bill Kapri, 26, was pinched for possession of cocaine, tampering with evidence and improperly stopping or parking his vehicle. He appeared before the judge on Thursday (December 7).
WSVN reports that officers approached Kodak Black’s vehicle after noticing his black Bentley SUV was holding up traffic around 2am on the 600 block of NW 47th Terrace. The officers then found the “Visions” rapper asleep behind the wheel. Of course, the cops also noted the odor of marijuana coming from the SUV as well as “cannabis wrapping paper and residue” per the police report.
But this is when the struggle gets extra real. Reportedly, Black copped to the weed, but then the authorities said they noticed him trying to discard of a white powdery substance. After being searched, the cops found a white substance in a baggie in his pocket that was confirmed to be cocaine.
Kodak Black was famously pardoned Donald Trump in 2020 of his federal sentence for falsifying documents to purchase firearms, and has been continuously singing the former President’s praises ever since. There’ll be no get out jail free cards now, though.
All jokes aside, it seems like Kodak Black, who had to complete court-ordered rehab before, needs help.
