Tekashi explained that he believed the girl was 18 at the time and uploaded the footage publicly, arguing he would not knowingly post something illegal. Despite the serious nature of the charges, Tekashi maintained that he did not knowingly commit a crime and criticized the attention on his involvement rather than focusing on others implicated in the video. The rapper urged viewers to “focus on the facts” as he addressed the controversy in detail.
Tekashi 6ix9ine opened up about his early collaboration with Trippie Redd and the fallout that followed. The two first connected in 2017 after Tekashi flew to L.A. to meet Trippie, recording their breakout track “Poles 1469” together. The song quickly gained traction, catching the attention of Trippie’s label owner, Elliot Grainge, leading to meeting opportunities and industry buzz around both artists. However, their relationship later soured, with Trippie publicly dissing Tekashi on Twitter, effectively ending their collaboration. Tekashi dismissed these claims as distractions from his rising career, emphasizing that their initial success was fueled by hard work and label support. He also addressed rumors about Trippie getting physically attacked amid their dispute, casting light on the complicated dynamics behind their once-promising partnership.
