6ix9ine teases new diss aimed at Young Thug — preview drops, camp hints at video prep as feud reignites 🚨
Controversial Brooklyn rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine has once again stoked hip-hop headlines after previewing a new diss track aimed at Young Thug, using social media to mock recent “snitching” allegations and setting off a fresh round of reactions across the rap world.
On September 9–10 the rapper posted a short clip of new music on his Instagram that contains lines attacking Young Thug and referencing the “rat”/“snitch” narrative that has shadowed recent coverage of the YSL prosecutions. The preview — which recirculated rapidly across media and fan pages — includes a nursery-rhyme hook turned taunt and captions that amplify the jab.
Multiple hip-hop outlets reported that the clip was part of a broader push by 6ix9ine to capitalize on the controversy. Outlets say he’s not only teased the audio but has signaled plans to support the single with visuals — posts and reposts surrounding the snippet have suggested a music-video rollout is being planned, though no finished video has been publicly released at time of writing.
The punchiest line in the preview and accompanying captions directly lean into the long-running slur that has defined 6ix9ine’s public persona since his 2018 cooperation with federal prosecutors. That past cooperation has been a frequent subject of attacks from other artists over the years, but the current exchange flips the script as 6ix9ine accuses Young Thug of the same kind of betrayal he was previously criticized for.
Reaction on social platforms was immediate. Some artists and influencers criticized 6ix9ine for reopening sensitive issues; others egged the feud on. Notably, rapper Sukihana publicly confronted 6ix9ine after he invoked the memory of a late friend in his posts, which escalated the back-and-forth into a multi-party social media spat.
Industry observers note the calculus behind 6ix9ine’s moves: short clips, provocative captions, and suggested video plans are a familiar playbook for driving streams and clicks. Whether the full track will be commercially released, or whether it will spark legal or label-level responses, remains uncertain — but media coverage and fan engagement indicate the clip has succeeded in drawing attention.
