6ix9ine has once again stirred the pot in the hip-hop world, this time revealing how he sought revenge on fellow New York rapper Dave East after being mocked for his music. The two artists, known for their contrasting styles and trajectories in the hip-hop scene, have had a rocky relationship that recently resurfaced during a podcast appearance.
In a conversation with Adam22, highlighted by DJ Akademiks on Instagram, 6ix9ine reminisced about an encounter with East that took place back in 2016. At the time, East was part of the XXL Freshman Class, and during a studio session, he put 6ix9ine on the spot. Tekashi played some of his metal rap, which elicited laughter from those present — including the women he was interested in.
Fast forward to 2018, and 6ix9ine recounted an incident where he had the opportunity to help East gain entry to an event hosted by La La Anthony. Instead of extending a hand, he chose to deny East entry, declaring, “Nah.” This moment stands as a testament to 6ix9ine’s rise to fame compared to East’s more measured ascent in the industry.
In response, Dave East reflected on his first encounter with 6ix9ine, recalling how the rapper, at that time, was an unassuming figure without tattoos or his signature rainbow hair, merely a cameraman in the corner of the studio. East remarked on the transformation he witnessed when he next saw 6ix9ine, who had become an outspoken figure in hip-hop.
While 6ix9ine continues to be a polarizing figure, he has also faced backlash for other comments, including recent jokes made during a livestream with Adin Ross and Antonio Brown. As he navigates the ups and downs of his career, the tension between him and East adds another layer to the ongoing drama within the hip-hop community.
