Identical twin rappers have disclosed that they amassed a significant amount of money by recording an incestuous kiss for OnlyFans.
Florida natives, Alex ‘Flyysoulja’ and Franky ‘Kodiyakredd’ Venegas, who make up the duo Island Boys, gained attention on TikTok in 2021 due to their unique appearance, which includes dreadlocks, tattoos covering their faces and bodies, and diamond teeth. Their popularity was further boosted by their rap song, ‘I’m an Island Boy.’
Subsequently, the pair released a full version of the track accompanied by a music video the following year, leading to an increase in memes surrounding the distinctive brothers on social media.
A documentary titled “Trolled: The Untold Island Boys Story” was also released that year, exploring both the professional and personal lives of the twins, who are no strangers to legal troubles.
Yet, the public was unprepared for the unsettling move the Venegas brothers made next.
The twins announced their venture onto the adult platform OnlyFans by sharing a video of them kissing.
This video unsurprisingly sparked a wave of backlash; however, Kodiyakredd mentioned that the controversial clip earned the twins a substantial financial reward.
During The Wild Podcast in February, he revealed: “I was in a very vulnerable state. I didn’t want to do the kissing thing. I took three days to sleep on it. I didn’t want to admit that I only had $60,000 to my name.”
Initially apprehensive, the brothers proceeded with the act, anticipating it would become viral.
“Is it that much of a big deal?” Kodiyakredd remarked. “I know what I am, I’m straight.
“It did go viral. I started making $600k, $700k a month.”
The twins defended their actions in a 2023 episode of Adam22’s podcast, stating: “We’re twin brothers, we came out of the womb together, we grew up together. It’s not really disgusting if it’s twins.
“We kind of just made out or whatever, we kissed and then we just like look the other way for a few minutes and couldn’t like, look at each other, but it wasn’t that big of a deal – just a kiss.”
Kodiyakredd later disclosed that he earned $6 million from the act, while his brother made $8 million.
This revelation was made at the ringside of an MMA fight in Miami, where Kodiyakredd eventually lost to streamer Oblivion.
Oblivion pointed out that he had seen Kodiyakredd ‘kiss his brother’ prior to the fight, to which Kodiyakredd retorted: “For millions of dollars, bro. The f**k? You think I’ma do that for free?”
This incident coincides with further legal troubles for the 23-year-old, who was arrested in Naples, Florida, facing charges related to drugs and firearms.
He was reportedly booked into the Collier County Sheriff’s Office in February, charged with possession of a controlled substance without a prescription, and possession of an altered firearm.
Additionally, the social media influencer was arrested following an incident in a Fort Lauderdale parking lot in his yellow Corvette Stingray in May of the previous year, during which he allegedly tried to impersonate his twin brother to avoid a reckless driving charge.
The year before, he was apprehended for domestic battery following an alleged attack on his girlfriend, pushing her into a pool at a Pompano Beach Airbnb. He had also been accused of domestic abuse by a former girlfriend in 2022, though no charges were filed.
That same year, the Venegas brothers’ residence was raided by a SWAT team during a hunt for their childhood friend, Andrew James Thomas, who was wanted on first-degree murder charges associated with a drive-by shooting involving firearms.
Thomas was sentenced to nearly 50 years in prison after entering a guilty plea.
