Part 23: Tekashi 6ix9ine on Getting Charged w/ Attempted Murder, More Nine Trey Bloods Arrested
Part 1: Tekashi 69 on His Biological Father Abandoning Him, Meeting Him at Age 8
--------
Tekashi 6ix9ine discussed his decision to plead guilty and cooperate against the 9 Trey Bloods gang. Arrested in November 2018, 6ix9ine initially pled not guilty but changed his plea in January 2019 on multiple charges. Explaining his motivation, he cited betrayal by those he once considered friends who endangered his life through kidnappings and wiretaps. Tekashi detailed taking full responsibility and cooperating to avoid a lengthy sentence, becoming the first high-profile rapper to publicly testify against gang members. His cooperation contributed to Shotti’s 15-year sentence—a moment Tekashi viewed with blunt indifference. Despite public backlash and the “snitch” label, 6ix9ine defended his actions, emphasizing that without his testimony, many involved would still face prison.
