Tekashi 6ix9ine finally got touched. The rapper's boasted of how he can roam the streets untouched but during a visit to a nightclub in Miami, someone clocked him in the back. 6ix9ine denied that he was harmed and said there were no previous issues that led up to that moment.

TMZ recently caught up with a man who goes by @ItzMrBHN on social media. After going viral with the clip, he explained that he doesn't feel any regrets about swinging on 6ix9ine.

"It was definitely the right thing to do," he said. "Hopefully, that humbled him a little bit because now he's trying to pass out money and all that, trying to make everybody in the streets and so on [to show] he has sympathy in his heart and all that. Nah, you not that type of person." 

He said that he has an issue with 6ix9ine trying to bully people, which he admitted to experiencing first-hand that night. He explained that 6ix9ine was antagonizing him and his friends in their section over the course of the night. He explained that Tekashi was filming them in their section and calling them names on his IG story.

"His security pushed me all the way out the way. Just pushed me. So it kind of pissed me off. And you know, I've had issues with this security before," he explained. "As I'm standing there, another security just walks by and just steps on my shoes. Steps on my shoes and slight elbow over again," he added, which led him to punching 6ix9ine.
