In 2018, rising star XXXTentacion was murdered in his home state of Florida. As fans and the HIp-Hop community searched for answers, Delray Beach recording artist Soldier Kidd was falsely accused as the murderer.
After going viral online, Soldier Kidd is now looking to change the narrative around his name and let his music do the talking with the release of his new video “First Degree.”
The new video is a bounce back for Kidd after he states the allegations ruined his career. Since, individuals who were actually responsible for the murder have been indicted. The new release is looking to established Soldier Kidd away from the rumors that are associated with his reputation.
