The Island Boys, who burst to fame after being mocked on TikTok, were booed at their first Miami show at Club Liv. You can watch the video below.
The fact the Island Boys – who are freestyle rappers named Flyysoulja and Kodiyakredd – were booed at all went viral on… of, course….TikTok. They appeared at Club Liv, and it didn’t go so well according to this video:
Don’t feel sorry for the Island Boys. They went viral in the first place because lots of people think they can’t sing. It became a joke. But just as many people wrote on social media that they can’t get the rappers’ signature line, “I’m an island boy…” out of their heads.
You can watch the much mocked and shared rap song later in this article. It shows the two island boy twins from Florida rapping off key in a pool or hot tub. According to All HipHop, their real names are Franky and Alex Venegas.

The Island Boy Twins Have Been Mocked Online; They Were Billed as the Island Boyz at Club Liv
The poster for the Island Boys’ performance at Club Liv calls them the Island Boyz and says they performed at the club on November 24, 2021.
Some people posted TikTok videos making fun of the Island Boys.
But they were happy to find out they were trending.

Kodiyakredd used to be known as Redd4x or Redd_4x.
‘I’m an Island Boy,’ the Twins Sang
In the rap video, the island boys sing, “I’m an island boy” and “put my vest on, yeah.” Their TikTok videos have been viewed millions of times.
Flyysoulja is on Instagram. Kodiyakredd is too.
Some people who are mocking the island boys regard them as an “example of the rappers representing the stereotypical Florida man,” according to Know Your Meme. They have a YouTube channel with an official music video. The language is disturbing to some, so be forewarned.
Reaction on social media to their island boy song was swift. “I want to be an Island Boy for Halloween,” wrote one Twitter user. “i’ve been singing ‘ima island boy, i stare at the sun’ to my wife the last two days, I think she wants me to die,” wrote another.

The Island Boys Are ‘Full Cuban,’ Their Mother Says
@flyysouljah Reply to @realquotinn ##ForYouPizza ##flyysoulja ##SoundcoreGoForGold ##redd_4x
People speculated on which state they’re from (Florida). In one video on YouTube, flyysoulja called his mother on the phone.
He asked her to confirm his ethnicity, revealing that he’s Hispanic. She told him that he was born in America but that both of his parents were born in Cuba. Asked to give his race, she described him as “full Cuban” in that video.
What are the real names of flyysoulja and kodiyakredd? A person who says he knows them outed them as Alex and Frankie in a video (be forewarned that the language is disturbing and very graphic.) Multiple sites claim flyysoulja’s real name is Alex Venegas. There is a 20-year-old Alex Venegas who lives in Florida and is tied to a Frank Venegas in public records.
