Wallo and Gillie’s Emotional Plea to Kodak Black: 'Don’t Play Them Babies'

In a heartfelt exchange, Wallo reminded Kodak of his worth, challenges, and the importance of being there for his kids.

Kodak Black recently sat down with Gillie Da King and Wallo for an emotional episode of the “Million Dollaz Worth of Game” podcast. The Florida rapper, known for his highs and lows in the music industry, received heartfelt advice and encouragement from the duo, who didn’t hold back in their mission to uplift him.

Earlier this year, Kodak shared his struggles with Percocet addiction, revealing he once took up to 100 pills daily and regretted glorifying drug use in his music, including a line in "Super Gremlin" about knowingly taking a fake Percocet. At the time, he highlighted his commitment to sobriety and self-improvement. Last week, the rapper addressed concerns about his behavior during a live stream with Kai Cenat, where viewers noticed him acting erratically and appearing to take a pill. On Instagram Live, Kodak admitted to taking a Percocet during the stream but brushed off the criticism, saying, "I take one perc and y’all be so f**cking butthurt. Y’all don’t like a n**ga anyway." He also expressed frustration with unsolicited advice and interference in his life. This incident has sparked renewed conversations about Kodak’s history of substance use. 

In a teaser clip from the podcast, Kodak appeared to be filming a music video with children. Another shows him sitting on a curb while Wallo and Gillie squatting beside him. Wallo started by grabbing Kodak’s hand and offering his words of wisdom. “Look at me, man,” Wallo began. “Listen, you special. Don't ever doubt yourself. And you got them babies counting on you. Now, there's gonna be times where you gonna doubt yourself, you gonna be in pain, but them babies counting on you. You got to be here.”

Wallo emphasized that many people around Kodak might enable him rather than provide genuine support. “A lot of people need you and they ‘yes man you.’ I ain't here to ‘yes man you.’ You know me, every time we connect. You know I got love for you, not because I need you. I got love for you because you're a young cat. And I was young. Gil was young. Live, live!” he said.

He continued, diving deeper into the struggles Kodak might face and the importance of staying strong for his children. “These people want to laugh, they want to joke, they want to criticize. They don't know your pain. I don't know your pain, but I know one thing. Them babies counting on you, your family counting on you, and you're talented,” Wallo said. He reminded Kodak of the opportunities many others in similar situations have lost.

With unwavering emotion, Wallo urged Kodak to shift the narrative. “Some of them in prison, some of them dead, and they looking at us like we just some niggas that don't give a f**k. We drunkies. We are criminals. That's what they think of us. Well, we got to learn how to change the narrative, brother. You got a lot of people watching, a lot of young people watching.”

Wallo concluded with a powerful reminder about Kodak’s role as a father. “Prince, King, Queen, Isabella. Prince, King, Queen, Isabella. Prince, King, Queen, Isabella, they counting on you. Don't play them babies. Don't sell them babies out. Live for them babies, you hear me? I love you, man, you hear me? I love you, man.” The emotional moment ended with Kodak smiling and embracing Wallo and Gillie in a heartfelt hug.
