Akademiks reports that Tekashi 6ix9ine's new project DUMMY BOY has been pushed back until further notice. 6ix9ine's label, 10k Projects, is set to make the announcement soon. However, at this point, no announcement has been made from Tekashi 6ix9ine's team about a new release date.

Earlier this week, Tekashi 6ix9ine was arrested on firearms and racketeering charges. The rapper, who's currently in general population of Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center, was denied bail after offering to give up his passport and the remainder of his bank account, $1.7M. The judge on the case said that 6ix9ine is too dangerous to be let out on bail and claimed that even if he was on house arrest, the rapper could still direct acts of violence from his home.

We'll provide further updates on the release of 6ix9ine's DUMMY BOY.
