"If he accepts a deal with me, I give this kid whatever he wants #NoCizzy"

Will Kodak sign the check?
The two men don’t start from scratch. Atlanta on one side, Florida on the other, but the same galaxy. In 2017, they were already riding together on "Top Off Benz," an ode to the convertible and proof that the chemistry exists. The respect is real, the connection documented.
Vibe check: "Top Off Benz" (2017), the collab proving the duo is no fantasy.
One major detail remains. Kodak Black has just chosen independence — meaning: he now controls his music and income — by closing a Capitol deal estimated at 30 million dollars. Why regain freedom only to re-sign elsewhere immediately?
At the time of writing, the Floridian has not responded. Nothing is signed, nothing is quantified. The check waits, the amount remains blank.
The pen is in Kodak’s hand
Young Thug placed the check, the amount remains blank. It’s up to Kodak Black to write the figure — or put the pen away. The rap summer bidding war is just beginning.
