Dewson Octavey

Kodak Black (real name Dewson Octavey, replaced by Bill C. Capri) is a young American hip-hop and rap artist best known for his songs Roll in Peace, Tunnel Vision, No Flockin and Don ' t Wanna Breathе ".

Dewson Octavey was born on June 11, 1997 in the American city of Pompano Beach, Florida, in a family of Haitian immigrants. Dewson's father left the family shortly after his birth, and the boy was raised by a single mother. Mother and son moved to a neighboring housing society in Golden Akers, where many Haitian expats also lived.

Life in the area led the boy to meet a local crime boss, drug dealing and petty crime. Octavey had no interest in studies and had a bad reputation. He fought several times at school, which led to expulsion. Dewson dreamed of becoming a rapper. He actively read books to expand his vocabulary and get a feel for the English language.

By the time the boy was 12 years old, he had already started to read his first rap. Recalling the hard days, Octavi later stated in an interview that he had only two options: sell drugs at gunpoint or rap.

The guy started attending a recording studio and soon realized that he really enjoyed making music. However, he did not give up his gangster activities, for which he continued to be arrested from time to time. At the age of 15, Octavey was arrested on suspicion of a serious crime. It seemed that the dream of becoming a rap star had come to an end, but one of the music producers noticed the talented bully in time. This proved to be a turning point in Dewson's life.

The guy took on the pseudonym J-Black and began to take a career in the rap industry seriously. Shortly after he turned 12, he joined a local small rap group called "Brutal Youngnz". When his plans with the team did not come true, he joined the other collective "The Kolyons".

In December 2013, J-Black released his debut mixtape "Project Baby". The record made a good showing in local nightclubs and brought the young man considerable fame. Over the next 2 years, he released two more mixtapes "Heart of the Projects" and "Institution".

Although his music was well received, the rapper still hasn't received widespread recognition. In October 2015, renowned hip-hop artist Drake danced to one of J-Black's songs "Skrt". This played an important role in the career of the future Kodak Black. After that, the number of searches for his song on "Google" skyrocketed, and his work went into the public domain.

The record company Atlantic Records wanted to cash in on the guy's growing popularity and offered him a contract. In May 2016, Kodak Black announced that he would be on the "Parental Advisory" tour, but was unable to attend the concerts for personal reasons.

French Montana became the first popular rapper to agree to a partnership with Kodak Black. Their first joint single, "Lockjaw", was released in May 2016. The song entered several R&B and hip-hop charts at once.

In August of that year, Dewson's solo single "Skrt" was also featured in various themed music charts. The guy decided to take full advantage of his rapidly growing popularity and soon released his fourth mixtape "Lil BIG Pac". The tracks were released by the same Atlantic Records. "Lil BIG Pac" became the musician's first album to enter the Billboard charts.

However, the success was overshadowed by a racist incident on the Internet. In a video on one of his social networks, the rapper made fun of a black woman using recitative. The lyrics implied that she was not as beautiful as a white woman.

In early 2017, Kodak released a single titled "Tunnel Vision". The song reached the top of many American music charts. She debuted at # 27 and peaked at # 6 on the Billboard Hot 100. This was a huge achievement since Kodak Black was a relatively new artist at the time.

In March 2017, the guy released his debut studio album, Painting Pictures, which turned out to be one of his most successful projects to date. It peaked at # 3 on the Billboard 200 chart.

In August 2017, Kodak released "Project Baby 2", the sequel to his "Project Baby" mixtape. One of the album's singles, "Codeine Dreaming", was particularly successful and peaked at # 52 on the Billboard Hot 100.

On Valentine's Day 2018, Kodak unveiled another mixtape, "Heartbreak Kodak", which also went viral. In the fall of the same year, the rapper announced a joint track, and then a video with Bruno Mars and Gucci Mane "Wake Up in the Sky", which was a continuation of successful creative collaborations in the career of Kodak Black.

During one of his countless prison visits, he met a Jewish minister who gave him several Hebrew lessons. After that, the young man changed his religion and became a representative of Judaism. He also changed his real name to Bill K. Capri.

Kodak Black is one of the most controversial rappers today. He was imprisoned several times for major and minor offenses. He was charged with possession of weapons, hemp and armed robbery.

In January 2017, the musician recorded and posted on his Instagram page a video in which a woman sexually satisfies him and several other men. After a scandal and public outrage broke out, the guy deleted the video, publicly apologizing.

In June 2017, he openly admitted that he prefers white women over black because, according to him, black women are "too dirty." This caused a lot of controversy in the media.

Little is known about Bill K. Capri's personal life and relationships with girls. The media covered his relationship with the rapper Cuban Doll. The guy has no wife and children.

Bill's height is 168 cm, weight - 66 kg.

2 weeks before 2019, the rapper released his second studio album, Dying to Live. The title single "If I'm Lyin, I'm Flyin" and the second "Zeze", co-recorded with Travis Scott and Offset, were released early in the fall and gained popularity.

Now in the biography of the musician, scandals related to the photo and video content of his social networks, creativity, as well as violation of the law still surface. But, perhaps, this creates the "criminal" image necessary for a real rapper and adds scandalousness and recognition to his person.
