Covid- 19: Kodak Black Chips In From Prison

Kodack Black was charged with possession of a weapon by a convicted felon, possession of marijuana, and fleeing from officers. In September 2016, he was sentenced to four months in jail.

Despite being behind bars, the rapper is giving back to society. He donated hundreds of books and much-needed school supplies to students now learning from home. 

The rapper's attorney, Bradford Cohen said: "Kodak's sending out 625 reading comprehension books to 625 schoolkids in Broward Country, FL to help offset the impact of the coronavirus pandemic."

Along with those books, he's also planning to include supplies and notebooks for the students with a goal of helping kids in grades 1 through 5 meet state standards in reading despite their new educational challenges.

Public schools in Florida are shut down until at least April 15, and Kodak's team got the word that the children were in the need of learning tools. The rapper was happy to lend a hand. All in all, Kodak's dropping $5,000 in educational aid.

Cohen says they're ordering everything Thursday and expect delivery in a few days. With all the new social distancing guidelines and precautions, logistics are still being worked out on how to get the books to the kids.

Kodak's currently serving a 46-month prison sentence handed down by the judge in his federal gun case in November. He's also facing 2 to 7 years to be served concurrently after pleading guilty to attempted second-degree criminal possession of a weapon.
