Flyysoulja is out of a Miami-area hospital after four days there following an overdose, according to a November 2 report from TMZ. The Island Boys rapper, whose real name is Alex Venegas, told the outlet that he took a combination of cocaine, benzodiazepines and Percocet on October 29. He said he had been celebrating the purchase of a new condo and car when it happened. Venegas also said he was placed under Florida's Baker Act for an involuntary mental health evaluation. He has talked about struggling with addiction before, including plans to enter rehab earlier this year.

Flyysoulja says he was celebrating new purchases when the overdose happened

TMZ reported that Venegas was taken to a Miami trauma unit after the October 29 incident. He told the outlet he had been off drugs for a period before the overdose, after dealing with addiction for years. He got released on November 2, four days after being admitted.

The Baker Act is Florida's mental health law, and it lets a person be taken for an involuntary mental health examination when legal criteria are met.

Venegas told TMZ he was placed under the act during his hospital stay. The report didn't give further details about the evaluation or his medical treatment.

The Island Boys rapper had already spoken about addiction and rehab in 2026

This wasn't Venegas' first involuntary evaluation. In November 2025, he was Baker Acted after a drug-induced psychotic episode at his Miami-area home.

TMZ reported that he had taken multiple substances and damaged parts of the property while unknowingly livestreaming.

In January 2026, Venegas told TMZ he was going to detox and seek help. “I'm going to detox right now to get the help to become a better version of myself and to become a better dad,”he said.

He also acknowledged having been through treatment before, adding, “I've been here before, but this time I'm gonna take it a lot more [seriously].”

The Island Boys are twin brothers Alex Venegas and Franky Venegas, known as Kodiyakredd. Their 2021 freestyle built around the phrase “I'm an Island Boy” helped make the twins viral online figures.

The November 2 report didn't say whether Venegas plans to enter another treatment program after leaving the hospital.
