The IRS comes for us all, but they especially put the hammer down on 6ix9ine.
The New York rapper joined streamer Deshhae Frost and opened up about the massive debt he’s in.
“Damn, all my tax-paying dollars is going to [the IRS,” 6ix9ine said. “I didn’t know how to manage my money so I fucking—my accountant wasn’t writing nothing off.”
He revealed that he has since paid $6 million to the IRS, and claims they still need another $2 million to settle his debt.
“That’s $8 million going to a universe that we don’t even know where it’s going to,” he joked.
But the “GUMMO” rapper thinks his celebrity status is why he has to pay the exorbitant price. “The way they treat everybody else and the way they treat 6ix9ine, there’s different rules, different things. I think they want to make me an example,” he said.
“That’s cool. As long as I’m with free and with my family, we gon’ pay these n***as their money.”
6ix9ine has been on a press run lately, airing out all of his grievances and giving insight into some of the wilder moments of his career, like the time Nicki Minaj’s dressing room was hit with a bullet while the pair were shooting a music video with Ye. According to 6ix9ine, Minaj wanted to continue the shoot.
“The director of production called it off,” 6ix9ine said on the Fresh & Fit podcast. “After the shots went off, Nicki called and was like, ‘N***a still, let’s shoot that shit.”
In one of his more bizarre stunts, the rainbow-haired rapper revealed he wears a wig while criticizing the follicularly challenged.
“This right here is my hair,” he said, pulling at his real hair underneath his wig. “I do this because I want to do it. You do it because you have to do it.”
