Kodak Black was sentenced to 46 months in prison and three years of supervised release on federal weapons charges last week. The "ZEZE" rapper has plenty to keep him occupied behind bars according to TMZ, as he's reportedly looking to bag himself a college diploma by the time he's released.

As sources close to Kodak explained, he is looking to register for some classes at the federal prison in Florida where he's being held. Upon his release, he allegedly wants to take the SAT in hopes of getting into the University of Florida for a bachelor's degree. Additionally, Kodak has taken an interest in the literature of Friedrich Nietzche. When he was incarcerated last year, he made an official request to have a tutor visit him in order to get his GED.

Kodak landed the lengthy stay in prison for knowingly making false statements to unlawfully purchase firearms. Due to his prior sexual assault charges in South Carolina, he cannot buy any weapons. Kodak admitted to lying about his criminal history when he filled out a Firearms Transaction Record form.

Just days after he was sentenced to federal prison, Kodak was hit with two counts of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. The new felony charges each carry a maximum sentence of 30 years, as Kodak is now considered a "habitual violent offender" due to his repeated legal troubles.
