Tekashi 6ix9ine Has A Multi-Million Dollar Lawsuit On His Head Right Now

Tekashi 6ix9ine sued

New York rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine is going to need to lawyer up. New reports claim the hip-hop artist has a $2.25 million lawsuit heading his way from clothing brand Fashion Nova.

Big Facts

According to reports, Fashion Nova believes Tek didn’t properly promote a short-lived business partnership. To make matters worse, he received a $225,000 advance in October 2018.

The docs claim just 2 weeks after Tekashi got the wire, he was locked up … making him unable to perform his duties for the company. What’s more … they say Tekashi’s testimony during the trial totally torpedoed his ability to be a good brand ambassador for FN. FN claims Tekashi was underhanded … he and his people concealed the entire criminal prosecution from them. In other words, what FN seems to be saying is that they had no idea Tekashi was a criminal. FN says Tekashi promised to return the $225k, but never did … and now they’re suing for $2.25 million. (TMZ)

High-Key Details

According to reports, 6ix9ine will become a free man in early August. The jailed rap artist’s legal representative recently said his good behavior ultimately contributed to the early release rollout.

Rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine is scheduled to get out of federal prison in August after behaving like a “model prisoner” behind bars, a report said Monday. The 23-year-old rapper-turned-government-witness — who is serving out his time in an unspecified private jail for safety reasons — has a release date of Aug. 2, according to the Bureau of Prisons Inmate Locator. One of his attorneys, Dawn Florio, told Complex: “The reason why he’s getting released early is because he’s the perfect model prisoner.” (Page Six)

Wait, There’s More

Despite landing behind bars on federal charges, 6ix9ine ultimately cooperated with prosecutors. His decision to help the feds eventually landed him a reduced prison sentence.

Hernandez was facing 37 years to life on federal racketeering charges, but his sentence was reduced to two years in prison plus five years of supervised probation in December 2019 in a dramatic trial that included the interruption of Hernandez’s alleged father, whom he claimed he hadn’t seen since the third grade. The reduced sentence came as a result of his cooperation with the U.S. Attorney’s Office in a case against the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods. (Rolling Stone)

Before You Go

The rap star has remained behind bars since November 2018. Tek’s federal charges included drug racketeering.

6ix9ine was arrested in November 2018 on federal racketeering and firearms charges. In February of 2019, he pled guilty to nine counts in the federal case—including charges of racketeering conspiracy, multiple firearms offenses, and narcotics trafficking. The rapper began cooperating with prosecutors almost immediately after his arrest, subsequently testifying against alleged Nine Trey Gangsta Blood members Aljermiah “Nuke” Mack and Anthony “Harv” Ellison. Mack was eventually found guilty of racketeering conspiracy and conspiring to distribute narcotics; Ellison was found guilty of racketeering conspiracy and kidnapping 6ix9ine. (Pitchfork)
