6ix9ine continues his mission to troll all of hip hop. In the teaser clip for his upcoming music video for the melodic track, "Gotti," the rainbow-haired Brooklyn rapper kept the controversy-train rolling as a shot shows his head on a woman's bikini-clad body. While the rest of the clip is a typical rap video filled with sunsets, pools, and girls, Tekashi took a hard left when he presented a feminine version of himself. The song is a stylistic departure for him as well. Leaving the loud, Onyx-style vocals of his past records behind, "Gotti" opts for melodic, auto-tuned crooning.
If there's one thing 6ix9ine is great at is shock-value and marketing. The clip already has over 100,000 comments on Instagram. The video will debut on Sunday, April 15th. Watch below.
6ix9ine stopped by The Breakfast Club to talk about being "the most hated" in the game and why he loves it. Going toe-to-toe with Charlamagne Tha God, the interview changed a lot of people's opinions of the 21-year-old rapper. During the sit-down, he talked about why he trolls, the accusations that he is a pedophile, and why he doesn't "check in" with gangs when he travels around the country.
“I’m showing the industry..all that fake gangsta sh**t? Cut it out, blood. Look how stupid I look right now? I got a big ass 69 on my face, right? With rainbow hair and I’m literally sitting here talking to you about all these people who want to beef with me and all these people calling me out. How stupid do they look? I’m literally the one getting under their skin and taking them out of character. Gangstas don't say what they going to do. They just do it.”
After the interview racked up nearly 5 million views over the weekend of its release, it currently has 8.7 million, comedian Gary Owen came to the show dressed up as the rapper, complete with a rainbow wig and fake tattoos.
