Tekashi 6ix9ine has added a few more pieces to his growing collection of colorful jewelry. According to TMZ, the controversial rapper has purchased two new rings, decorated by two of the emcee's most obvious symbols: a rainbow and "69" respectively. Both pieces have the ability to spin, as you can see in the video below. They each contain about 15 carats of diamonds set in 14k gold, setting Tekashi back $17,500.

The Brooklyn rapper also showed off two new pairs of fang grills, as he's been known to wear: one rainbow and one silver. The white gold and colorful enamel pieces reportedly cost 5k, making it a 22.5k visit to Houston jeweler JimmyBoi.

Tekashi recently revealed that he nearly lost his $300,000 Jigaw chain in an Uber.

6ix9ine has attracted controversy after it was made public that the rapper pleaded guilty to the use of a child in a sexual performance in 2015. The charges stemmed from a video the rapper filmed with a 13-year-old girl who appeared nude and engaged in a sex act with another man present. 6ix9ine claims he did not know the girl was underage. 

Earlier this week, 6ix9ine was accused of knowingly sleeping with a 17-year-old girl when he was 20, as per a report from Babe.net

Despite the controversy surrounding the rapper, his debut album Day69 debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 in March. His single "Billy" currently sits at 68 on the Hot 100.
