Tekashi 6ix9ine is back in the mix and wasting no time stirring controversy, this time taking aim at Young Thug while responding to an interview invite.
The polarizing rapper jumped into the conversation after media personality Big Bank publicly asked him to appear on his platform. Instead of a simple yes or no, 6ix9ine did what he’s built his reputation on, turning the moment into another headline. His response came with a direct jab at Young Thug, reigniting a narrative he’s been pushing since Thug’s release.
“I mean you interviewed Thug and me and him are no different in the interrogation room.”
That line alone was enough to set the tone. It taps into a long-running and sensitive topic in hip-hop, especially considering 6ix9ine’s own past legal situation, which led to industry backlash and accusations that still follow him. Now, he’s attempting to flip that narrative by calling out what he sees as inconsistency in how the culture responds to similar situations.
Big Bank didn’t engage with the comment directly. Instead, he kept things moving with a simple “#PullUp,” signaling the door is open if 6ix9ine wants to sit down. Whether that conversation actually happens remains unclear, but the potential alone is already generating buzz.
6ix9ine has previously called out the industry for embracing Young Thug while labeling him a “rat.” According to the New York rapper, Thug also snitched in his RICO case, though Thug denies this.
As of now, it’s unknown how Thug feels about the possible interview, considering his close relationship with Big Bank. Nevertheless, it appears the chat is moving forward, though it’s unclear if it’ll pull in the same cultural relevance as Bank’s interview with Thug, which attracted millions of views.
