Rapper Kodak Black played an after-hours show in Orlando

One of the more intimate, beautiful moments of the holiday happened on Sunday in Orlando when Kodak Black got on stage at 4:45 a.m. in a strip mall venue called Genasis Event Center on Edgewater Drive and started rapping.

Kodak’s gift to the tiny audience was warm, radiating energy coupled with hard emotion — both of which fueled his short, four-song set comprised of new work written this year.
