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.
Island Boys No More: The Rift Between FlyySoulja and Franky
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.
The Island Boys’ Rise and Fall
For those who may not remember, the Island Boys became an internet sensation in 2021 after their song “I’m An Island Boy” went viral. Their eccentric hairstyles, heavily tattooed appearances, and over-the-top personalities made them social media staples. At their peak, the twins seemed inseparable—even sharing controversial videos of themselves kissing on the lips.
However, their fame was short-lived, and their bond began to unravel over time. The latest developments only confirm what fans had suspected for months—the Island Boys are officially no more.
Will the Island Boys Reunite?
While the future of the Island Boys remains uncertain, FlyySoulja hopes they can repair their relationship one day. “We both have growing up to do,” he admitted. “Maybe we’ll find our way back to each other.”
For now, though, Flyy is focused on his family, while Franky faces the consequences of his latest run-in with the law.
