6ix9ine has been released from jail after serving time for violating his probation – and he’s returning home with some strict conditions for the foreseeable future.
According to a report from the Tribune, the controversial rapper was released from the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn on Thursday (December 12) with a one-year probation extension as well as a home-stay order, electronic monitoring and a myriad of other stipulations.
Among them is the requirement to maintain a full-time “lawful” job – which may not bode well with his career as a rapper.
Akademiks also obtained video of 6ix9ine’s first day out, where he appeared to be picked up from MDC in a sprinter van.

6ix9ine was sentenced to 45 days behind bars on November 13, exceeding the 30 day term the prosecution had called for.

The multiple violations included testing positive for meth, traveling to Las Vegas without permission and twice failing to comply with drug testing requests.
Speaking to the “FEFE” rapper, Judge Paul Engelmayer said: “Your breach of the court’s trust is profound. Five violations say to me that you believe the rules don’t apply to you. Maybe you believe that because you’re a famous rapper.”
In turn, 6ix9ine pleaded for leniency: “I make a lot of mistakes, but I’m not a bad person.”
Engelmayer also warned 6ix9ine of harsher sentencing should he end up in his court again: “If you are brought back before me, I may sentence you to more.”

The Brooklyn native initially defended his trip to Vegas through his lawyer, who claimed that he went to the city for a performance and that he believed he had notified the proper authorities but ultimately pled guilty to the offense.
The probation relates to 6ix9ine’s 2019 sentencing after he pleaded guilty to racketeering, firearms offenses and drug trafficking. He was also sentenced to two years in prison plus five years of supervised release.
The arrest came on the heels of the rapper signing a new deal with Kartel Music Group – one that came with a clear stipulation that he can’t have any legal issues throughout the duration of the contract, nor initiate any online beefs. He also can’t be arrested.

It’s unclear how the arrest will impact the deal moving forward.
