Before You Go
Recently, Akon shared some major support for 6ix9ine. The rap veteran blamed Tek’s mentors for not properly preparing him for dealing with law enforcement and federal prosecutors.
“Nah, Tekashi, that’s my little man, yo. It’s funny because, this is the thing, he’s young, bro. His generation and our generation aren’t the same. We gotta teach them different because you gotta understand when kids get in a situation like that, you gotta look at it like a young OG – he’s surrounded by a bunch of people that didn’t inform him – as to what he’s getting himself into.”
