6ix9ine is still getting paid handsomely despite his lack of recent musical output. The New York rapper took to Instagram on Monday (July 11) to reveal he earned half a million dollars for a 40-minute performance in Turkey, while sharing videos of himself jumping into the 15,000-strong crowd and fans chanting his name.
“THE BEST IN THE WORLD,” he wrote. “You can’t stop what GOD has planned for someone. 15,000 sold out show Istanbul Turkey. 500,000$ for 40 minutes. All around the world I’m loved and known in every part. You guys need festivals to have big stages, only known in America. It needs to be 20 artist performing for people to show up. Don’t @ me argue with ur self.”
He added on his Instagram Stories, “I drop a song ONCE a year. Only released 2 songs in the past 2 years (750 days). I sell out shows all around the world. I would hate me too.”
6ix9ine was sued by a concert promoter in December after reportedly not showing up to a Texas show. JJD Entertainment — owned by Jamie Dominguez — filed a lawsuit alleging the rapper flew in to Humble on June 27, 2021 to collect $75,000 but didn’t end up performing.
According to the lawsuit, the contract said 6ix9ine would get $45,000 when signing the paperwork and $75,000 when he showed up for the concert, with Dominguez also paying $28,000 to fly 6ix9ine on a private jet from Florida to Texas.
JJD Entertainment had to refund ticket sales, with the promoter claiming he spent a total of $178,649.70 on 6ix9ine’s event budget and over $100,000 on the venue, production, security and insurance.
6ix9ine's 'Snitch' Reputation Has Cost Him Another Valuable Relationship
6ix9ine celebrated his 26th birthday on May 8. Instead of partying, he spent the day washing cars and handed out $50,000 to the rest of the employees at the company.
“Happy Birthday To Me,” he said. “50,000 to hard working people that go to work everyday on their birthday I’m nothing special. Everybody want to drink like a Mexican till it’s time to work like one. BTW Happy Mother’s Day.”
Why is this guy în the News,fo real…
Why you hatin’ on a brutha shine for real…
Yo say what you want to say, every freaking time you see 69, he is giving away money to the Mexican Kids, why is it you don’t see these black rapper doing that, all you see is they are involved in gangs, i respect 69 for trying to help out his people man, not kill them
Respek to you my G! The truth too much to handle for most peeps in the game.
No every time you see him doing these so called charitable acts, he’s the 1 posting it, while the other Black artist do it and been doing it but they don’t post about it, they have foundations and charities set up and don’t do it for the likes and clout. To say “all you see is there involved in gangs” makes zero sense, as 69 was affiliated with a gang and doing gang activates, selling drugs and tired to have several people killed, those are just the facts, public court records.
U talkin straight BS homeboi. All dese rapper be all up on dey IG talkin bout how dey a star in dey hood n dey don’t need no security all da damn tym. Da game full of n*gga dat be chasin clout. Dat’s how dey get caught slippin. King Tekashi hold da crown. He don’t chase clout. He spread luv. Dat’s why he here today.
Its da KING! Can’t stop his blessings no matter how much dey try. Da Pied Piper of Hip-hop. Streetz luv him, da people luv him n da Game luv him. Brooklyn, NY stand up!!
Foreign rap fans dont give a crap about BS American culture like “snitching”. They just want to enjoy the music. Aint nothing wrong with that. Foreign hip hop money will always be a thing now. In other countries that dont swear by toxic US hood culture, they see you as a god.
Fo real. Most people that be talkin bout snitchin n callin people ‘snitches’ be snitches theyself.
If you see that douche as a God, swallow a shotgun shell before you bring another stupid ass child in this already overpopulated planet
You mad at fans for having values and holding artists accountable. Fuck outta here clown
You got it wrong, they just dont care bout american beef, their rappers have already copied even that culture..
dont really see the risk v reward profit of it but only the irs really knows cuz when they hear that they check receipts, 15K paid 33 bucks is plauable but you still have transportation, hotel, venue, security, insurance, promotion… thats alot fingers in pies when 1 guy gettin 500people really out here risking 1M to make 1.1 at most? but it is turkey i guess you can pre sale these thing out so the numbers are known
LMAO selling out shows around the world? Bragging about 500,000 for a little 15,000 seat sellout.
Im calling cap, and even if its not, between overhead and the IRS that leaves this rap with peanuts.
Can yall let this rat die off and stop posting about this bum? please? smh
Don’t you got like a debt to settle were you was crying to a judge that you broke and can’t pay the people suing your stanky ass?
