Kodak Black has announced he is expecting his fifth child, just months after he welcomed a baby boy with his ex-girlfriend.
The news was revealed in a video showing Kodak and the mother of the child celebrating with an extravagant party surrounded by family and friends.
During the brief clip, fireworks were set off and the words “Baby Kapri” — a nod to the rapper’s surname — were lit up in giant letters on a lawn.
It was previously claimed by one of Kodak’s other baby mothers, Jammiah Broomfield — with whom he shares an eight-year-old son named King Khalid — that he was expecting another child, although she didn’t divulge who the mother is.
Congrats to Kodak Black and the mother of his child on expecting a baby boy, which will be Kodak Black’s fifth child.

The drama also led to Kodak’s other baby mama Maranda Johnson vandalizing his luxury vehicles and going on a social media rant after he was seen hanging out with Broomfield.
Maranda took aim at Jammiah (a.k.a. Maya), saying: “You doing all that groupie shit and still don’t got shit. Everything he buy King you sell it to buy drugs. You deadbeat-ass bitch. You so proud to get fucked and sent home. How you a side bitch to yo own bd??”
It was just months earlier when Kodak and Maranda appeared to be a happy couple as they welcomed a baby boy into the world.
Johnson revealed that Yak even helped birth the child himself, writing on social media: “2/27 a prince was born. Our midwife really let bill deliver our son himself.”
The “Super Gremlin” hitmaker spoke to TMZ about the arrival of the child, his fourth overall.
“I’m happy to be home with my family and my new son,” he said. “It was very special to help deliver a new soul into the world. I know he’s going to be a special person.”

Kodak and Johnson also share a two-year-old daughter named Queen Yuri, while the 27-year-old rapper has two other children from past relationships including King.
Just weeks after Maranda gave birth, Kodak was also rumored to be back with another ex-girlfriend, Mellow Rackz.
The two were previously engaged in 2021, with Kodak later posting a number of pictures of Rackz on his Instagram.
One of the photos showed Yak and Rackz in a loving embrace with the caption: “You can’t tell me nothing… because I prayed for this love.”
Another showed the word “Bill” tattooed on Mellowz’s cheek, a reference to Kodak’s real name Bill Kahan Kapri.
