Tekashi 6ix9ine, Nicki Minaj drop ‘Trollz,’ proceeds going to Bail Project!
For the first time, American rappers Nicki Minaj and Tekashi 6ix9ine have joined forces to bring fans a new single called Trollz.
The three-minute, 30-second track dropped on Friday, June 12 and was accompanied by a colourful music video that sees the duo go through some wacky outfit changes while horsing around with a variety of props, one of which is a tiny kitten that 6ix9ine keeps kissing.
The song also serves as the followup to Gooba, 6ix9ine’s second single since his early release from prison in April. On Dec. 18, 2019, he was sentenced to two years in prison plus five years of supervised probation after pleading guilty to federal racketeering charges and co-operating with federal prosecutors.
Upon the release of Trollz, Minaj, 35, took to Twitter announcing that a portion of the proceeds from the song, along with profits from all merchandise, will go towards the Bail Project amid the Black Lives Matter protests sparked by the death of George Floyd.
Using the #BlackLivesMatter hashtag, Minaj wrote that the foundation helps “provide free bail assistance to low-income individuals who can’t afford to pay bail.”
On April 2, 6ix9ine, whose real name is Daniel Hernandez, was ordered immediately freed from a Manhattan federal prison four months early by a judge who cited the rapper’s asthma and the greater danger he would face behind bars during the COVID-19 pandemic.
