Twin rappers have revealed they made a crazy amount of money from filming an incestuous kiss on OnlyFans.
Florida brothers, Alex 'Flyysoulja’ and Franky ‘Kodiyakredd’ Venegas, known together as the Island Boys, shot to fame on TikTok in 2021 for their distinctive looks, notably their dreadlocks, face and full-body tattoos and diamond teeth, which was only compounded by the release of their rap song, 'I'm an Island Boy.'
The duo went on to produce a full version of their track with a music video the following year, which only fueled yet more memes about the unusual brothers on social media.
A documentary, Trolled: The Untold Island Boys Story, also came out that year which looked into the professional and personal lives of the twins who aren't exactly shy when it comes to brushes with the law.

However, no one could brace themselves for the disturbing act the Venegas brothers did next.
Announcing their arrival on the adult site, OnlyFans, the pair filmed a video of themselves kissing.
Unsurprisingly, the video saw them land on the sharp end of some intense backlash, though Kodiyakredd suggested the stunt saw the twins bag a serious sum of cash.
On The Wild Podcast in February this year, he stated: “I was in a very vulnerable state. I didn’t want to do the kissing thing. I took three days to sleep on it. I didn’t want to admit that I only had $60,000 to my name.”
He said he was hesitant at first, but the brothers decided to do it in the knowledge that it would go viral.
"Is it that much of a big deal?" Kodiyakredd continued. "I know what I am, I'm straight.
"It did go viral. I started making $600k, $700k a month."
The brothers also defended the act in 2023 on an episode of Adam22's podcast, explaining: "We’re twin brothers, we came out of the womb together, we grew up together. It’s not really disgusting if it’s twins.
“We kind of just made out or whatever, we kissed and then we just like look the other way for a few minutes and couldn’t like, look at each other, but it wasn’t that big of a deal – just a kiss.”
Later, Kodiyakredd revealed he made $6 million for the stunt, while his sibling earned $8 million.
The revelation came ringside of the MMA fight in Miami before Kodiyakredd lost out to streamer Oblivion.
Oblivion raised the fact that he saw him 'kiss his brother' before the fight, to which Kodiyakredd snapped back: "For millions of dollars, bro. The f**k? You think I’ma do that for free?"
It also comes as the 23-year-old is facing yet more legal issues after he was arrested in Naples, Florida, on drug and gun charges.
He was apparently booked into the Collier County Sheriff's Office in February and charged with possession of a controlled substance without a prescription as well as possession of an altered firearm.
The social media star was also arrested after allegedly being caught speeding inside a Fort Lauderdale parking lot in his yellow Corvette Stingray in May last year where he reportedly tried to impersonate his twin brother to dodge the reckless driving charge.
The year before, he was arrested for domestic battery for allegedly attacking his girlfriend and pushing her into a pool at a Pompano Beach Airbnb, and had been accused of domestic abuse by his ex-girlfriend in 2022 but no charges were filed.
In the same year, the Venegas' home was raided by a SWAT team as cops launched a manhunt for their childhood friend, Andrew James Thomas, who was wanted for first-degree murder with firearms charges on a drive-by shooting.
Thomas was sentenced to nearly 50 years in jail after pleading guilty.
