Kodak Black does not slow down. On April 16, 2026, the Pompano Beach rap powerhouse dropped the official video for Top To Bottom, featuring his Vulture Love signee Big Fredo — and directed by Kodak himself. Shot by The Vultures, the visual is raw, unfiltered, and exactly what fans have come to expect from one of South Florida’s most prolific forces in rap.
The release arrives as Kodak continues to ride the momentum of his eighth studio album, Just Getting Started — and as the title suggests, he means every word of it.
Kodak Black Keeps His Foot on the Gas
Just Getting Started dropped on Halloween 2025 via Vulture Love and Capitol Records, and it landed with serious weight. The 20-track project brought out a stacked guest list — Chance the Rapper, Pharrell Williams, Gunna, Lil Yachty, and Don Toliver — while showcasing Kodak at his most vulnerable and ambitious. Critics and fans took notice immediately, with the album hitting No. 1 on Hip-Hop on Apple Music upon release.
Now, months into the rollout, He is still feeding the streets. Top To Bottom is the latest drop keeping the album’s energy alive — and the video proves the campaign is far from finished.
Who Is Big Fredo
For those unfamiliar, Big Fredo is not a random feature — he is part of Kodak Black‘s inner circle and a signed artist on Vulture Love, the label Kodak launched to spotlight the next generation of rap talent. Fredo has appeared on previous Vulture Love releases, including the label’s debut compilation Vulture Love Presents: The Last Zombies on Earth in 2024, where he held his own alongside an entire roster of hungry up-and-comers.
Kodak has been vocal about his mission with Vulture Love:
- Discovering and developing artists from his Florida community
- Giving emerging talent a platform backed by major distribution through Capitol Records
- Building a label culture rooted in loyalty, creativity, and street authenticity
Top To Bottom is a direct extension of that vision — Kodak putting his own name behind an artist he believes in, on a track he directed himself.
A Director With a Vision
The decision to direct the Top To Bottom video himself is telling. Kodak Black has always been fiercely hands-on with his creative output, and this latest visual continues that tradition. Shot by The Vultures — his trusted production crew — the video carries a gritty, lived-in aesthetic that mirrors the honesty of his lyricism.
This is not a flashy, high-budget production designed to chase trends. It is a statement of ownership, of creative control, of an artist who knows exactly what he wants to say and how he wants to say it.
Kodak Black’s Legacy in Real Time
The numbers behind him are staggering — 44 Billboard Hot 100 chart placements, 25 billion global streams, 30 RIAA certifications, and over 26 million monthly Spotify listeners. He has received the keys to multiple cities including his hometown of Pompano Beach, where his philanthropic work — from annual turkey drives to covering rent for community members during hard times — has made him far more than just a rapper.
With Top To Bottom now live and Just Getting Started still in rotation, Kodak Black is once again proving that his catalog continues to grow in every direction.
