Bursting onto the scene with rainbow hair and a multi-colored grill, Brooklyn-bred rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine lit up social media with his unique brand of face tats and flamboyant style, that soon placed a target on the up-and-comer's back. Proudly brandishing his IDGAF attitude to his burgeoning Instagram fanbase which now boasts over 3 million followers, 6ix9ine has been nothing but vocal about the fact that, to him, haters are nothing other than wannabe groupies salivating over his spinning chain and designer duds.
Along with dodging shots aimed at his sexual orientation and the legitimacy of his street cred, 6ix9ine's meteoric ascent has been plagued by serious legal controversy as well. Overshadowing the rise of his Billboard-charting breakout hit "Gummo," that now boasts over 154 million YouTube views, news of the rapper's past legal troubles branded the New Yorker as a predatory sex offender. Several months before "Blicky got the Stiffy" memes started making waves on social media, fellow Brooklyn rapper ZillaKami shed light on 6ix9ine's past case in which he pled guilty to one felony count of Use of a Child in a Sexual performance after a video surfaced of a nearly nude 14-year-old girl draped across the lap of the then-18-year-old rapper.
Unsurprisingly, the "Kooda" rapper has been making the rounds to distance himself from the damaging PR despite the fact that he plead guilty to the offense in a court of law.
“Yo, when I found out the girl’s age, bro, gangsta, I wrote a letter of apology to her, her family... she was in a group home...that shit hurt my heart, you know what I'm saying?" said the rapper in a November 2017 interview with DJ Akademiks aimed at addressing his sexual misconduct charges. "'Cuz I lost my father, so I understand when people don't got a certain parent, you know what I'm saying? But I thought she was of age, she was just wildin'...you know how these girls be, bro. Bro, I didn't even know shew as gonna come back and bite me. Everybody will tell you what type of person I am."
From Trippie Redd to YG and The Game, the Internet famous rainbow-haired rapper of the moment has made some high-profile enemies both in the industry and on the street. Here, we've compiled the numerous beefs top names on the scene have with the self-titled and oft-disputed "King of New York."
Trippie Redd

According to both Ohio-bred rapper Trippie Redd and 6ix9ine, all is not well in the house of Strainge Music. The one-time label mates and collaborators on tracks like "Poles1469" and "Owee," first came to blows after ZillaKami first shed light on 6ix9ine's history of sexual misconduct. "I’m sorry brozay, 1400 don’t promote pedophiles," said Redd in response to 6ix9ine's case. "If we give n----s clout, we give n----s clout. It was an accident." The beef escalated when Redd was jumped by 6ix9ine's crew while walking in the lobby of his New York hotel.
"6ix9ine is still a rapist," said Redd in an Instagram Live video recorded soon after the altercation. "He’s still a rapist ass n----." "This n---- 6ix9ine is done. He can’t come to LA at all. Never again. If 6ix9ine comes to LA, it’s over. I’m in New York right now. If y’all really think bro bout that, really go tell that n---- pull up right now.”
Pi'erre Bourne

After Tekashi nabbed his career-making "Gummo" beat from Trippie Red by way of "Magnolia" producer Pi'erre Bourne, it quickly became clear that the hot-right-now hitmaker wanted nothing to do with the rainbow-haired, in-your-face rapper. "F--- that gummo shit. All y’all n----s doing weird shit some opps I swear," wrote Bourne in a now-deleted tweet.
Attempting to diffuse the tension, 6ix9ine admitted to DJ Akademiks that he reached out to Bourne in an attempt to get clearance for the beat and the producer responded by giving the cold shoulder. "I haven't said a word to Pi'erre...all I said was, 'Yo, big fan.' Show him nothing but love, real humble about my shit...I can't control nobody else, you know what I'm saying? So, I never spoke to him...private lawyers got through to him."
Casanova

Brookyn-bred rapper Casanova came for Tekashi 6ix9ine with his diss track "Set Trippin," with bars like "If you want smoke ain't nothing we gotta speak 'bout/See you with that red flag on what that be bout?" aimed directly at the rapper whose Blood-affiliation is often contested. True to form, 6ix9ine then clapped back while on stage with his crew at a late-December gig at Club FREQ in New York screaming, "Shout out Casanova. We f---ed that n---a's bitch" to the packed venue.
Acie High

Acie High, who reps the rap group Aqualeo out of Texas wasn't about to let Tekashi's crew slide after they started dissing the women he and his partner Priceless were dropping off at LAX. When Acie and Priceless attempted to get 6ix9ine's goons to back down, the verbal altercation escalated to a traffic-stopping brawl.
"He has a track record of bothering girls," said Acie, defending his decision to jump the NY rapper. "It was just time. They was talking shit. Where we come from, we from Texas, we don't do no shooting."
The Game And YG

Compton-bred rapper The Game wants everyone to know that he has the undisputed high ground, while gunning to take Tekashi down a peg, after his self-proclaimed "King of New York" status. The Game drew first by leading a crowd to chant “Fuck 6ix9ine” during a stop on the European leg of his 45 tour and referring to the rapper as a "fake-ass Blood." The "Gummo" rapper took to Instagram to issue his response. “I TURNED ‘GANGSTERS’ INTO CLOUT CHASERS," he wrote. "I INVITE ALL YALL TO MY DICK. A KID WITH RAINBOW HAIR GOT THE WHOLE INDUSTRY RIGHT NOW AGGRAVATED."
The Game stood behind his claim that 6ix9ine was nothing more than a wannabe gangster by serving the Gram with (multiple) receipts of the rapper's fake status.
