Goofball rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine continues to find the wrong side of his fellow artists. Since his April 2020 release from federal prison, the artist named Daniel Hernandez has returned to the rap game more problematic than ever. This time, the rapper caught heat from “Old Town Road” emcee Lil Nas X.
On Thursday, social media exploded after 6ix9ine made a homophobic reference to the multi-platinum rapper on a post that DJ Akademiks shared about China giving COVID tests with anal swabs to foreigners. Lil Nas X wasted no time outing the clown rapper with a hilarious TikTok video alleging that 6ix9ine slid into his DMs on Instagram asking his whereabouts.

“Gonna be in yo’ city soon. What you doing,” the message from 6ix9ine read along with an upside-down smiling face emoji and a red heart emoji. The DM was sent two days after Valentine’s Day.
Lil Nas X didn’t respond to the DM, but he did respond to the obnoxious emcee’s jab with a simple question.
“This you,” he wrote as he hit the Harlem Shake.

Twitter users were quick to respond to Lil Nas X giving 6ixNine all the smoke.

He thought he did something being homophobic. I love how you always defend yourself. You don’t tolerate disrespect from no one.

Lil Nas X came out as gay on Twitter in 2019.
*UPDATE* 6ix9Nine responded to the clapback king via Instagram.
“Before this s**t even start, we gone nip this s**t in the bud.”

He then showed his messages which were empty– though Lil Nas X was at the top of his search feed. Maybe, he thinks the public doesn’t know that Instagram messages can be unsent.
He still gets a side-eye over here.
