A Florida judge has ordered rapper Kodak Black to drug rehab for 30 days after he allegedly tested positive for fentanyl while awaiting trial on a drug trafficking charge. Broward County Judge Barbara Duffy on Tuesday allowed the performer to remain free until March 7 so he could perform at the Rolling Loud concert near Los Angeles over the weekend. Duffy had earlier issued a warrant for his arrest. The 25-year-old performer had missed a court-ordered drug test on Feb. 3 and then tested positive on Feb. 8. He is awaiting trial from a July arrest on a charge of trafficking oxycodone. He has pleaded not guilty.
