"First Day Out" is a song recorded by American rapper Kodak Black. Produced by Dyryk, the song was his third non-album single and ninth career single.
The song is Black's first since his release from jail after a three-month sentence he received in early 2017 for violating his probation.[1] [2] [3] It was described by Stereogum as "the latest in a growing tradition of songs that rappers record immediately after returning from prison." The song lyrically discusses Black hiding drugs in his jail cell and celebrating freedom upon his release.[4]
The song was also released alongside a music video, Black's first since the jail sentence, which features him "relishing his freedom with bags of money, delicious food, and sporty cars."[5] [6] Directed by 20K, the video "opens with Black hugging his mom and surveying his surroundings,"[7] before "celebrating with friends, partying and balling out upon his return home."[8] [9]
