The rapper broke down in tears upon hearing the question, allowing fans to witness a rare side of the typically flamboyant rapper. The fans were left stunned to see the developments on Instagram as Kodak Black repeatedly cried out:
"I’ve never experienced love. I’ve never had it, bro."
Kodak Black has always been at the center of controversies, but the fans had always assumed a steely exterior behind his public personality. Fans were shocked about whether or not to believe the rapper's comments after his recent confession, and many ran to social media to offer their support for the troubled star. While some took the confession at face value, others cast doubts on his crying, dismissing it as performative art.
One fan commented:
"I know damn well he aint crying,"
Another fan posed the question:
"Is Kodak’s cry for love genuine, or just another stunt to stay relevant amid his endless controversies?"
Another fan suggested:
"Mfer popped beans his whole music career and never found real love. Skill issue,"
Yet another fan remarked:
"Maybe, just maybe if he wasn’t geeked 24/7 he could start working on that instead of crying,"
While there were many who mocked the rapper for crying, there were others who found his statement relatable and lent support to him while sharing stories of their own. One fan shared:
"Surrounded by crowds, yet starved for connection. That's real pain,"
Another fan wrote:
"I would hold him and let that demon cry his little heart out. Thugs Need Love Too,"
Another fan expressed concerns for his well-being:
"I know we only get what goes viral, but every clip I see of this guy and he is geeked out. I sincerely hope he finds peace."

He has had a troubled past, flush with controversies and legal issues. All of his past experiences have shaped the person he is today, and his latest confession also sheds light on the complex persona behind his exuberant appearances.
