Looks like we'll be getting a new music video with 6ix9ine, Kanye and Nicki.

Whether you like him or not, Tekashi 6ix9ine has dominated 2018. Aside from making headlines for his wild antics, the rapper's been steadily dishing out certified hits throughout the year. In a few weeks, he'll release his second project of the year, DUMMY BOY. After revealing the cover art and release date, it looks like he's getting ready to shoot a video with two heavyweights in the music industry.

According to The Blast, Tekashi 6ix9ine, Kanye West and Nicki Minaj linked up in L.A. to plot on an upcoming music video. At this point, details surrounding the concept or the song of the video are unclear, but people in production are excited that Kanye, 6ix9ine and Nicki are linking up for some new visuals. 

While Kanye and Nicki are essentially vets in the game, it doesn't come as a shocker that they're shooting a music video with 6ix9ine. Both artists have praised the "STOOPID" rapper. Nicki collaborated with 6ix9ine on their top 10 single, "FEFE." Shortly after, Kanye praised 6ix9ine and the two were spotted in a studio in Colombia. 

At this point, the video could likely be for either 6ix9ine or Kanye as both artists are releasing their albums on the same day. Either way, we're excited to see what the trio of hip-hop stars have up their sleeves for the upcoming visual.
