6ix9ine has issued an olive branch to Cardi B following their static a few years back.
During a recent appearance on a Spanish-speaking show called Alofoke Radio, the colorful-haired rapper admitted that his ex-girlfriend Jade was the main reason he dissed Cardi in 2021. According to 6ix9ine’s new girl, who was with him on the interview, both of them are supporters of Cardi now.

Years before the public diss, it was speculated that 6ix9ine identified Cardi B as a member of the Nine Trey Bloods during Anthony “Harv” Ellison and Aljermiah “Nuke” Mack’s trial in 2018.
According to a transcript obtained by Complex at the time, 6ix9ine confirmed the “Bodak Yellow” superstar was a Bloods member while under cross-examination but denied he followed in her footsteps by having fellow members appear in his videos.
“I knew who she was. I didn’t pay attention,” he reportedly told the court.
6ix9ine was originally facing a mandatory 47-year prison sentence in his racketeering case but as the government’s star witness in the Ellison and Mack trial, he received time served and was released early.
In other news, 6ix9ine is on the promo trail in support of his new album, Leyenda Viva. The 11-track LP is fully in Spanish with very few features, though Latin Grammy-winning star Lenier makes seven appearances in total. The title translates to “Living Legend” in English.

The effort is 6ix9ine’s first full studio album in three years, and follows his sophomore album TattleTales released in 2020. Arriving just after his high-profile release from prison, TattleTales debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 with 53,000 album-equivalent units in its first week.
The Billboard rules have since changed, though, and 6ix9ine recently aired his grievances against the publication after they reinstated their rule that excludes merch bundles from counting towards chart placements. The Brooklyn-bred rapper said it happened in the summer of 2020 after he sold over three million dollars worth of merch for his “Gooba” single.
