Tekashi 6ix9ine Pushes Back Release Of Latest Video For 3rd Time: It Would Be Extremely Selfish

Tekashi 6ix9ine is pushing the release of his latest music video until Friday, June 12. He stated that the reason for the third pushback was due to current protests happening in America. Protestors are flooding downtown cities across the country in honor of George Floyd, an unarmed black man who was killed while detained by cops in Minneapolis.

The 24-year-old rapper was supposed to release his newest single and music video on May 29, but he pushed the date until June.

Underneath the post that stated the release of his newest music video is being postponed, Tekashi 6ix9ine captioned:

“It’s not the time for a music video right now with everything going on in the world. It will be extremely selfish. JUNE 12TH NEXT FRIDAY “

Tekashi 6ix9ine has been a musical warpath since being released from prison. On Nov. 19, 2018, reports came in that Tekashi had been arrested and was facing up to life in prison for racketeering charges. He was sentenced to two years in December, but was released in April because of COVID-19; not before the world was informed that he testified against his former gang affiliates, Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods gang, in exchange for lesser time.

Since his release, Tekashi has released GOOBA, a single that captured more than 280 million views on YouTube, which landed a spot in the top five of Billboard’s Hot 100 chart.
