The 28-year-old artist, whose legal name is Bill Kapri, was released just before midnight after a judge set his bond at $75,000 during a Thursday morning court appearance. Kapri was arrested Wednesday on a felony warrant for trafficking in MDMA, a charge stemming from a November 2025 narcotics investigation.

During the hearing, prosecutors argued for a higher bond, citing Kapri’s lengthy criminal history and labeling him a flight risk. However, his legal team successfully pushed back, noting his deep ties to the Florida community.

Kapri’s attorney, Bradford Cohen, continues to maintain that the charges are "ridiculous." Cohen argues that the primary evidence linking his client to the drugs — Kapri's identification card found in a bag near a prescription bottle inside a vehicle Kapri was not sitting in—does not legally constitute possession or trafficking.

The rapper is now awaiting his next preliminary hearing date.
