The first time I heard/seen of this guy was in a random Adam22 vlog from nyc. 6ix9ine was by himself and came off as a random internet rapper. 1 year later and he's all over the charts and the topic of so many controversies. it's crazy how you can literally become famous (infamous) overnight.
I don't listen to his music but I do find all the shyt surrounding him to be entertaining.
I can tell 6ix9ine is very intelligent. No, I don't mean book smart but you can tell 6ix9ine is constantly thinking and choosing his path very carefully. You can tell he is the type of dude who will study some shyt, master it, and move onto the next thing quickly. 6ix9ine is so many things rolled up into one. He's Emo, Goth, Juggalo, Onyx, DMX etc... The hair the tattoos the "gang affiliation".
But the key thing that is putting 6ix9ine over is that Brooklyn NYC swagger. That shyt is charismatic as fukk. NY cats can talk shyt better than anyone. I could tell 6ix9ine has studied Charlamagne like the Torra. The guy came prepared for Charlamagnes fukkery. I was shocked to see how 6ix9ine completely took over the show and had Charlamagne a bit flustered. That NY confidence and that Brooklyn swagger was too much for Charlemagne. It's hard to son someone who has had all the success that 6ix9ine has recently had.
I'm just a middle-aged hip-hop fan from the midwest
Kid is very entertaining to say the least
