Hip-hop beef just got a whole lot messier, and this time, it’s 6ix9ine stirring the pot with a bold comparison that’s sure to spark debate. In a recent tirade, he didn’t just defend himself against a gym brawl—he took aim at Lil Tjay’s Chipotle shooting, and the internet is buzzing. But here’s where it gets controversial: 6ix9ine claims he’s held to a different standard, and he’s not holding back on why.
When 6ix9ine was jumped by a group of men at an LA Fitness in 2023, he probably didn’t foresee using the incident as ammunition against Lil Tjay years later. In a series of remarks captured by No Jumper on Instagram, 6ix9ine addressed Lil Tjay directly, questioning why he’s perceived differently despite facing similar—if not more challenging—circumstances. ‘When you came and got me downstairs, am I with security?’ he began, emphasizing his solo presence during the altercation. ‘I really be by myself, I really be with my mans. No security, no backup.’ He contrasted this with Lil Tjay’s Chipotle incident, where Tjay was nearly shot, and pointed out the double standard: ‘Lil Tjay almost lost his life at Chipotle, and people act like I’m the one who’s weak for getting jumped in a gym. But the truth is, I was alone, exhausted, and still fought back.’
And this is the part most people miss: 6ix9ine argues that the rules are applied differently for him. ‘If anyone else got jumped, they’d say it’s unfair, but because it’s me, I’m the one labeled as weak,’ he explained. He even went as far as to say, ‘Your man had a gun on him at Chipotle—why didn’t he shoot? I was in a sauna, in a coat, hot and tired, and still stood my ground against three guys.’ It’s a bold statement that challenges the narrative surrounding both incidents and raises questions about how fans judge artists in these situations.
The beef between 6ix9ine and Lil Tjay isn’t new, but this latest exchange adds a layer of complexity. While it’s unclear if Lil Tjay will respond, one thing is certain: 6ix9ine thrives on controversy. From squashing beef with Young Thug to reigniting old feuds, he’s a master at keeping the spotlight on him. But here’s the real question: Is 6ix9ine’s comparison fair, or is he stretching the truth to save face?
As fans continue to debate, one thing’s for sure: this drama isn’t going away anytime soon. Whether you love him or hate him, 6ix9ine knows how to keep the conversation—and the controversy—alive. So, what do you think? Is 6ix9ine’s argument valid, or is he just playing the victim? Let us know in the comments below!
