The Dipset shows no sympathy for Tekashi 6ix9ine.

Tekashi 6ix9ine hasn’t received an ounce of sympathy from anyone (except, maybe, gym staff) after he got caught lacking in a gym sauna. Last week, the rapper got beat up badly at an LA Fitness in South Florida. Still, he has no plans to leave or up his security detail. However, people like Jim Jones, whose name was brought up during court proceedings, felt vindicated by the attack on 6ix9ine.

During a recent run-in with TMZ, the Harlem rapper publicly acknowledged the beat down but he didn’t really have many words to describe his feelings. Instead, he went through the evolution of dance moves from the 80s to the 2000s. Once the camera person asked him about 6ix9ine, he began to Vogue before hitting the Milly Rock. “Gotta be sturdy out here, you heard? You gotta move tactical out here,” he said as he continued to do the Milly Rock. “I don’t know, maybe it was the wrong type of gym,” Jones added before co-signing his own fitness center. 

Jim Jones & 6ix9ine’s History

The ties between Jim Jones and 6ix9ine became evident throughout the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods RICO trial. Jones’ alleged affiliation with the criminal organization became a component of the trial. At one point, prosecutors played a wiretapped phone call where 6ix9ine identified Jones as the man saying, “Now he got to get violated” to one of the co-defendants. Though Jones attempted to dodge any questions regarding 6ix9ine in future interviews, he continues to face inquiries about the rapper’s antics.

Shortly after 6ix9ine’s release, he, once again, went in on Jim Jones during an appearance on Clubhouse. He argued that he did more for the associates affiliated with Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods than the Dipset. “Jim Jones wasn’t taking care of them n***as, I took care of them n***as!” he said. “On top of that, Jim Jones was caught on wiretap on my case telling the big homie Mel Matrix to go and get rid of my security. How you do it, how you shoot at ’em, they don’t got no license to carry weapons.” Though 6ix9ine hasn’t publicly commented on the beating, it seems inevitable that he’ll go after Jim Jones’ dance moves.
