Island Boys Break Up: Inside FlyySoulja and Franky Venegas’ Falling Out
The Island Boys, the viral rap duo that skyrocketed to internet fame in 2021, have officially split. TMZ has learned that the twin brothers—Alex Venegas, better known as FlyySoulja, and Franky Venegas, also known as Kodiyakredd—have been estranged for quite some time.
The tension between the brothers came to light following Franky’s recent arrest over the weekend in Naples, Florida. He was charged with possession of a controlled substance without a prescription and possessing a firearm with an altered serial number. However, trouble had been brewing long before Franky’s legal woes.

FlyySoulja confirmed to TMZ that he and Franky have been on separate paths for a while, officially calling it quits as a duo. According to Flyy, the two had been clashing frequently, leading to intense arguments that ultimately caused Franky to move out of their shared Florida home over a year ago.
“My path is drastically different from my brother’s,” Flyy admitted, emphasizing that he no longer vibes with Franky’s current lifestyle. While Franky has been caught up in controversies, Flyy has shifted his focus to family life.

FlyySoulja recently got engaged on Valentine’s Day to his longtime girlfriend and baby mama, with whom he shares a young son. He also has a 4-year-old daughter from a previous relationship, and he now considers himself a “family man.”
Despite their strained relationship, Flyy insists that he still cares about his twin. In the past, he has even helped Franky financially, covering his legal fees. However, according to Flyy, his efforts have gone unappreciated. “Franky always throws it back in my face and says, ‘You’ve done nothing for me,’” Flyy revealed.
Now, with Franky behind bars, their estrangement is even more apparent. Flyy claims his brother has been trying to reach out since his arrest—but he has been missing Franky’s calls.
