6ix9ine Is Reportedly Staying At The Same Prison As Diddy After NYC Arrest

6ix9ine is certainly no stranger to legal issues, and unfortunately for the rapper, it looks like they won’t be coming to an end any time soon. Earlier this week, he was taken into federal custody, according to DJ Akademiks. He’s accused of violating several of his supervised release conditions. Allegedly, he traveled to Las Vegas without approval, failed to show up for drug tests, and tested positive for meth and marijuana.

Now, ABC 7 reports that 6ix9ine is being held at the same facility as Diddy, the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. For those who don’t recall, Diddy was arrested last month and hit with charges related to alleged sex trafficking and racketeering. He could end up facing serious time for his alleged crimes. As for 6ix9ine, he’ll reportedly remain behind bars until his next hearing on November 12.

6ix9ine Arrested For Allegedly Violating Probation

In court on Tuesday (October 29), Manhattan federal Judge Paul Engelmayer called 6ix9ine out for allegedly having a “full spectrum disregard for the law” and arriving an hour late. “I’m not a bad person,” the rapper responded at the time. “I woke up late.” Despite the circumstances, 6ix9ine’s attorney remains optimistic. “Daniel Hernandez was charged with three technical violations regarding his supervised release,” they told XXL recently. “We are confident that each specification will be dismissed.”

6ix9ine’s arrest took place just a few weeks after he signed a huge deal with Kartel Records. As part of the deal, he was expected to stay out of legal trouble, which clearly hasn’t worked out so far. “No, [I’m not worried about staying out of trouble],” 6ix9ine told TMZ earlier this month. “Because, I mean, like, if you know 6ix9ine, you know now, like, I’m squeaky clean. Like, I stay out of trouble. It’s just, trouble seems – its way to find me all the time.” For now, it’s unclear if or how his arrest could impact the deal. What do you think of 6ix9ine getting taken into federal custody earlier this week? What about him reportedly staying in the same prison as Diddy? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Tekashi 6ix9ine Allegedly Tested Positive For Meth Before His Latest Arrest

Tekashi 6ix9ine allegedly tested positive for methamphetamine twice in the last two weeks, prosecutor Jonathan Rebold alleged on Tuesday. The accusation came as 6ix9ine will spend at least the next two weeks behind bars after showing up an hour late to court on Tuesday morning. Manhattan federal Judge Paul Engelmayer made the decision after accusing him of having a “full spectrum disregard for the law.”

“I’m not a bad person,” Tekashi argued, noting that he’d just flown in from Miami to New York the night before. “I woke up late.” As for the meth, his lawyer, Lance Lazzaro, claimed there was a big misunderstanding and that his client actually takes Adderall. The popular prescription drug contains methamphetamine. The prosecution’s accusations didn’t end there; however, as they also alleged he took an unsanctioned trip to Las Vegas for a concert.

Engelmayer said that altogether, along with multiple arrests he’s had since getting out of prison, it represents a pattern of disrespect for the law. 6ix9ine recently found himself in legal trouble in the Dominican Republic, where authorities there arrested for him allegedly assaulting his girlfriend, Yailín la Más Viral, as well as two music producers. Additionally, police caught him allegedly driving 136 mph in a 65 mph zone in Florida.

6ix9ine got out of prison after giving key testimony in the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods trial. He infamously accepted a plea deal that reduced his time behind bars to just two years in exchange for him snitching on several of his associates. In the time since, he’s continued releasing music, including his single from August, “Wassup.” Be on the lookout for further updates on Tekashi 6ix9ine on HotNewHipHop.

The complaint against Durk accused him of allegedly paying for the attempted killing of Quando Rondo. It reads: “Banks [Lil Durk] put a monetary bounty out for an individual with whom Banks was feuding named T.B.

The filing also targets other associates of his Only the Family imprint, which it describes as a “hybrid organization” that also functions as a criminal gang in addition to a music collective.

Lil Durk’s Music Streams Are Up

Tekashi 6ix9ine Taken Into Federal Custody

Tekashi 6ix9ine has been taken into federal custody, according to a report by DJ Akademiks. The reason for the arrest is due to 6ix9ine allegedly “violating the conditions of his supervised release.” Overall, 6ix9ine is someone who has been in a lot of trouble throughout his career, for a plethora of different reasons. Of course, many remember his case from 2018 which led to RICO charges. However, 6ix9ine snitched on pretty well all of his associates and he only got a few years in prison.

Since that time, Tekashi has remained in the headlines thanks to his various antics. From disrespecting the dead to going overseas and causing trouble in various countries, 6ix9ine has remained a polarizing figure. Moreover, he recently signed a deal with Kartel music, but, of course, now that he is in Federal Custody, that deal might not be worthy much, moving forward. As for this current arrest, there aren’t too many details as to what exactly 6ix9ine did. However, there is no denying that Federal Custody is absolutely no joke.

DJ Akademiks Theorizes Lil Durk Will Face A “Big” Indictment Over Other Alleged Crimes

DJ Akademiks has spoken at length about the recent arrest of Lil Durk for allegedly orchestrating an attempted murder of rival rapper Quando Rondo in 2022. In doing so, he theorized that the feds are planning a bigger indictment against the rapper during a recent livestream. Federal prosecutors unveiled their complaint against Durk on Friday, alleging that Only the Family is a “hybrid organization” that also functions as a criminal gang in addition to a music collective.

“Banks [Lil Durk] put a monetary bounty out for an individual with whom Banks was feuding named T.B.,” the filing reads, referencing Rondo’s initials. “Banks ordered T.B.’s murder and that the hitmen used Banks and OTF-related finances to carry out the murder.” They further alleged that it was in retaliation for the 2020 killing of King Von.

As for Akademiks’ response, he theorized that more alleged attempted murders may be brought up in an alleged full indictment. “There’s a thought of mine that says, ‘When the feds unseal this indictment, they’re gonna have every attempt on Quando Rondo’s life. There was supposedly like three or four before. They might have FBG Cash, they might have other situations. They might bring back that Atlanta joint back that he was co-defendants with Von.’”

DJ Akademiks Discusses Lil Durk’s Recent Arrest

From there, he brought up the allegations that Durk was allegedly planning to flee the country before his arrest. “The reason why the feds did it is because they thought Durk was gonna run. So, the mere fact they locked him up, is because they know they’re cooking up a grand jury indictment. And that indictment, I think, is not only gonna have this murder for hire, it’s gonna be a superseding indictment. It might be racketeering. Or it might have other murders and other attempted murders. That’s gonna be the big bang.” Check out Akademiks’ full comments on Durk’s arrest below.
