According to TMZ, Queen’s mother is real estate agent Maranda Johnson. She and Kodak met four years ago and they started dating before deciding they wanted to have a baby.

This is the second child for Kodak, who also has a 6-year-old son, King, from a previous relationship.

It’s been one year since Kodak was released from prison after his sentence was commuted by former President Donald Trump. “What a coincidence I’m home a whole year finally after not being able to be free a whole year since I was 14 !!!! It’s lit,” he added.

In a video, he also thanked Trump for freeing him. “I wanna thank Donald Trump, the honorable president,” he said while wearing a red MAGA hat. “Without him, I wouldn’t be here with y’all.”

Kodak is currently enjoying success on the charts with his single “Super Gremlin,” which is No. 6 on the Billboard Hot 100.
