Tekashi 69 Says Fat Joe Is ‘Jealous’ Of Him After The Bronx Rapper Called Him ‘P*ssy’ Among Other Things

Despite reaping some pretty serious consequences for his trolling so far, Tekashi 69 hasn’t eased up on the antics one bit since being released from prison. He continues to antagonize any number of street rappers from Lil Durk to Meek Mill to Young Thug, more or less daring them to respond — something most of them have done in some respect, whether musically or in person. However, one veteran rapper foresees a more grisly end to the shenanigans and is convinced that the 26-year-old has a death wish.

Appearing on battle rapper Math Hoffa’s podcast, Fat Joe declared that he thinks very poorly of Tekashi, despite previously trying to help him out with words of wisdom. “I’m gonna just be honest with you,” he said. “This n****s a sucka. He’s pussy, a sucka, a bitch… This type of shit this n**** doing, I’m convinced he wanna die—and I don’t wish it on him or nothing like that but I’m convinced he’s miserable in his body. He can’t look in the mirror.” Joe was one of the many rappers who disapproved of Tekashi’s decision to testify against his gang-affiliated associates in 2018.

Tekashi, however, seems delighted to have a new playmate with whom to trade barbs and keep his name buzzing. After all, all publicity is good publicity in his mind, so he went to his favorite publicist, TMZ, to offer a response. “Fat Joe is jealous of 69,” he said. “69 has done more in his young career than Fat Joe has ever done in his long career…Fat Joe said I was miserable and want to die? Fat Joe is miserable and wants to die because Fat Joe doesn’t have half of what 69 has in money and cars. Fat Joe said I’m not a gangster, it was all for promotion? That’s fake news. What’s his proof that I ever said that? There is no proof. He’s lying.”

Considering that he literally got a reduced sentence on the racketeering charges against him by effectively saying exactly that as he turned over his cohorts in the Nine Trey gang (not that he needed to, considering the amount of evidence the gang had left behind), I’d say Fat Joe is at least telling a smidgeon of truth here.

Fat Joe Shares That He's 'One Million Percent' Taking The COVID-19 Vaccine

Fat Joe pulled up on Matt Hoffa and he had a strong opinion on 6ix9ine once RICO cases took over the conversation. Fat Joe let it off and stated he knew his opinion would get him “in trouble.”

“I’m gonna just be honest with you,” Fat Joe said. “This n*gga’s a sucka. He’s a p*ssy, a sucka, a b*tch. I’m dead sober. This dude here. This type of shit this n*gga doing, I’m convinced he wants to die and I don’t wish it on him or nothing like that but I’m convinced he’s miserable in his body. He can’t look in the mirror.”

Seeing the interview and never one to bite his tongue, 6ix9ine responded via TMZ:

“Fat Joe is jealous of 69. 69 has done more in his young career than Fat Joe has ever done in his long career… Fat Joe said I was miserable and want to die? Fat Joe is miserable and wants to die because Fat Joe doe`sn’t have half of what 69 has in money and cars. Fat Joe said I’m not a gangster, it was all for promotion? That’s fake news. What’s his proof that I ever said that? There is no proof. He’s lying.”

Cara Delevingne Gets Roasted For Her High-Effort, Low-Quality BBMA Photo Of Doja Cat, DJ Khaled, And Fat Joe

The 2022 Billboard Music Awards went down last night and if you had to pick one non-musician in attendance who stole the show, it’s probably Cara Delevingne. It seemed like she was all over the place last night, including the floor when she laid down to snap a photo of Doja Cat, Fat Joe, and DJ Khaled.

Since that photo started making the rounds after Joe shared it, fans took to Twitter to poke fun at the low quality of the photo despite all the trouble Delevingne went through to snap the pic.

More broadly, a lot of attention was paid to how excitable Delevingne seemed to be throughout the evening, especially in her interactions with Doja and Megan Thee Stallion.

Elsewhere during the show, Doja had one of the biggest nights thanks to her 14 nominations. She managed to win four of those: Top R&B Artist, Top R&B Female Artist, Top R&B Album (for Planet Her), and Top Viral Song (for her and SZA’s “Kiss Me More”). Meanwhile, Megan picked up a win on her sole nomination of the evening, for Top Rap Female Artist.

Some artists covered here are Warner Music artists. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.

[WATCH] Wendy Williams Reveals To Fat Joe ‘Unfortunately I Only Have $2’

Screen Shot 2022 05 08 at 8.28.10 AM

Rapper Fat Joe reunited with talk show host Wendy Williams and she revealed she only has $2.
Wendy Williams admitted during a sit-down interview with Fat Joe that while she misses being on The Wendy Williams Show, she won’t be tuning in to Sherri anytime soon.

“I wish I was there. I wish I was there right now to talk about it,” she told the rapper in an interview shared on Friday, May 6. “I’m glad I’m able to talk about when I come back, you know?”

It was announced in February that The Wendy Williams Show was being canceled and Shepherd would be taking over the beloved chat-fest’s timeslot with a talk show of her own after Williams was forced to take an extended break due to a series of health woes.

Now, the former radio DJ appears to be implying the show isn’t gone for good. When asked if she meant an entirely new series or if there were plans for her to come back to her old show, Williams didn’t hesitate.

“I’m coming to The Wendy Williams Show,” she said firmly. “Absolutely. Absolutely.”

As far as Shepherd’s new show goes, Williams just isn’t sold. She even interrupted the podcaster to shade her fellow talk show host.

“I won’t be watching her because I know what she’ll be doing and that’s not really my thing … you know what I’m saying?” she replied, quickly turning the focus back to her own plans for the future. “But I love, I love being on my own show. And I love that people love to watch it, you know, all the time.”
