It’s been a bittersweet weekend for the notorious rainbow-haired rapper. After Tekashi 6ix9ine surprised fans with the release of the Nicki Minaj assisted “FEFE,” his name was ringing bells in all the right ways. Yet as we’ve seen so often before, young rappers have made habits out of Instagram flexing, often showing off hundreds of thousands in diamond encrusted jewelry. In fact, 6ix9ine’s chain collection are as recognizable as the man himself, with the latest addition even sporting a piece of his trademark locks.
Sadly, the young rapper’s “FEFE” momentum came to a grinding halt after he found himself reportedly kidnapped, pistol-whipped to the point of unconsciousness, and robbed of nearly one million dollars in assets; read our report on that situation right here. After spending time in the hospital, Tekashi made time to call his homie Akademiks, where he assured fans he was feeling alright, despite suffering from “concussion damage.” However, it doesn’t take long for 6ix9ine to put forth his own theories about what went down.
