Despite being a convicted sex offender and panned cultural appropriator, Tekashi 6ix9ine is promoting the cancellation of fellow chart-topping rapper Doja Cat for allegedly committing similar crimes.
As the ‘Say So’ hitmaker finds herself embroiled in controversy stemming from her frequent appearances in a virtual chat room many have said promoted racism and homophobia, she took to Instagram to defend herself via video statement (as we reported here). However, during her speech she made a comment that rubbed 6ix9ine the wrong way.
Look inside to see just what she said and how he responded:
Two weeks ago, Doja (born Amalaratna Zandile Dlamini) celebrated her first #1 single when the Nicki Minaj-assisted version of ‘Say So’ topped the Billboard Hot 100 (as we reported here).
Its success, however, was deemed controversial by some for the practice of single bundling – pairing physical and digital singles to count separately toward a week’s sales tally. To add further incentive, Dlamini promised to expose her breasts online to fans if they pushed the song to #1. However, after they did so she failed to perform the act.
In a video uploaded to Instagram recently, she explained why she did not keep her end of the bargain.

In the clip, she’s also quoted saying:
“Your favorite artist — and there’s no judgment — if they care about [going #1], wonderful, that’s fine. There’s nothing wrong about wanting a #1 and working hard to get to that #1,” said Cat. “For me, I don’t give a shit. I just wanna fucking make music. I just don’t get it. I still don’t understand fully what a #1 means.”
6ix9ine – who in the last two weeks has managed to piss off Billboard, Scooter Braun, Ariana Grande, and Justin Bieber (as we reported here) for his rants about artists cheating for #1s – took the comment personally.
In response, he encouraged fans to “cancel her.”
Image a convicted p*** and snitch call for someone else to be cancelled. Not say Doja is right for the s**** she did but if this Mexican can get a pass for being a p*** and using the N-word y’all might as well give Doja another chance.
U didnt keep this energy for Camila
Unlike doja and 6ix9ine and post malone, and dua lipa who were all adults when they acted racist and did racist stuff, Camila was a teenager (15 years old)
Did I mentioned Camilla? I was talking about rat9. Keep this energy for Only Frauds
STFU. Nobody cares about Camila!
A blackListed Mexican troll who literally plays dress up as a caricature of what he thinks is urban culture? If pot calling the kettle black was a person. He is another one who uses black culture for his gain but when it comes to facing the consequences of his actions what does he do abandon his “brothers” and the street code that he so confidently rapped about and wore like a costume. Discarded it when it was convenient, picked it back up when he was a free man. Both of em disgusting.
in my book she is canceled. I’m not giving any money to this b**** for her to get rich and talk s*** to us. Bloop, bloopwow, true story
Both are trash
Cancel both.

Y’all grasping at straws now
I like “Say So”, but Doja sounds really ignorant in her Instagram videos. And you have to be one of those blackface party types to like 6ix9ine. They can both go away.
You don’t need a call-to-action. Your conscience and your principles should call you to act.
Hold up! Y’all thought she was serious? And are we really bout to let this clout chasin snitch p*** act like he shouldn’t be cancelled himself?!
Well Doja is half black. You’re full Latin so take a seat Rainbow Brite.
in my book she is canceled. I’m not giving any money to this b**** for her to get rich and talk s*** to us. Bloop, bloop
I don’t like him but did he lie?
Yall keep calling him Mexican when I dont think he is even a full breed. Look at his dad he is clearly half white yet he says the N word like its going out of style.
