I have never heard the adjective "bodak", but it may have been a misspelling of the word "Kodak". Kodak made camera film and some small photography cameras for many decades and their brand included their name Kodak on a field/background of a distinctive, yellow that tended toward goldenrod. Cardi B., the hip hop artist changed the word Kodak to Bodak as an artist's prerogative to correspond to the "B" in Cardi B.

Without context, it means nothing. Bodak is not an English word, and it's not something I have ever heard of. I googled it, and it looks like there are a few possible meanings, which is why you would need to provide context for us to interpret it.
