Florida police have issued an arrest warrant against rapper Kodak Black after he allegedly violated his bail conditions by failing a drug test earlier this month. According to new legal documents, a judge signed off an arrest warrant in Kodak’s name on Thursday, which got filed in Broward County court yesterday. In the documents, it says Kodak is to be taken into custody if any sheriff’s deputies encounter him, reported TMZ.

The judge says Kodak was found to have screwed up twice in recent weeks. On February 3, the agency he’s supposed to report to for random drug testing claims he was a no-show for screening and failed to submit a sample that day. On February 8, that same agency said Kodak did submit a sample but they allege it came back dirty.

According to the agency, he was positive for traces of fentanyl, however, it’s unclear how much. That was enough for a judge to direct authorities to arrest him. If he’s caught, there are additional orders to hold him without bond until his next hearing in this Oxy case from last year.

Kodak was taken into custody in July last year for possession of a controlled substance without prescription and trafficking. Police said they found upwards of 31 oxycodone pills in his car, which was found during a traffic stop in Ft Lauderdale. He posted $75,000 bail and was released, but not without this restriction in place, namely, keeping his pee clean.

This is not the controversial rapper’s first encounter with the law. He was arrested on New Year’s Day last year on a misdemeanor trespassing charge. In 2021, he pleaded guilty to a sexual assault charge which dated back to 2016.

Black was also sentenced to 46 months of federal prison back in 2019 after he was found guilty of a litany of weapons charges. He was detained before his performance at Rolling Loud Festival in Miami and accused of providing wrong information on federal forms used to purchase three firearms from a gun shop in Miami.
