Kodak Black's taking the necessary steps to get his GED.

Kodak Black's career has always had some sort of legal situation looming over him. The Broward County native has been in and out of jail for the majority of his career and while things were looking good for him at the beginning of the year, he later found himself getting arrested during a house raid. Since his recent incarceration, the rapper's been trying to take the necessary steps to further his education. The rapper's been trying to get access for a tutor in order to attain his GED and reports say the judge has allowed this.

According to TMZ, Kodak Black's judge has ultimately granted him access to a tutor while he's behind bars so he could get his GED. The rapper also requested access to a laptop in order to do his courses. From the report, it doesn't sound like his request for access to a laptop has gone through. It doesn't seem like that'll happen either. However, prior to his incarceration, he was already taking the necessary steps to get his GED.

Aside from getting access to a tutor, the rapper was also recently released from solitary confinement. Reports said that he was sent to the bing due to have an authorized three way phone call with the prison phone which is completely prohibited. However, upon his release, he also said that Chris Brown sent him $10K for his prison commissary.
