Authorities said the 25-year-old rapper first failed to submit to random drug and alcohol testing on February 3rd.
A few days later, on February 8th, he took a drug and alcohol test, which revealed traces of Fentanyl.
As a result, Black’s release has been revoked and an arrest warrant was signed by a Broward County judge Thursday.
Black was initially arrested in July 2022 after Florida Highway Patrol troopers pulled him over and found 31 oxycodone tablets and $74,960 in cash, in addition to driving with an expired driver’s license and tags, authorities said.
Despite his run-ins with the law, Black has also been a great advocate for his hometown, often participating in philanthropic events to help those in need.
