He may be enjoying time in Cuba, but Tekashi 6ix9ine is still recovering from a vicious attack. For years, the incendiary rapper has been targeting his foes, one after another. After turning federal witness against his gang affiliates, he became an industry pariah, with a "snitch" label following him at every turn. Still, 6ix9ine remained unfazed and taunted anyone who criticized him. While several chart-toppers pledged to face off with the rainbow-haired rapper, a reported trio of men at the gym executed an assault.
Recently, a video of 6ix9ine looking bloodied and battered surfaced online. Soon, another followed, showing the "GOOBA" hitmaker on the floor of an L.A. Fitness restroom being stomped, kicked, and punched by a group of men. TMZ shared a photo of 6ix9ine's injuries from the hospital, and it didn't take long for mugshots to be released. Jamie Medina, the wife to one of the suspects, Rafael Medina, had a few things to say.
6ix9ine Attack Suspect's Wife Defends Her Husband
A quick check shows that the GoFundMe campaign has been taken down. However, AllHipHop conveyed portions of Jamie's message. “My husband is Rafael Medina. I can’t talk much about the situation because it’s still ongoing, but my husband stood up for what he believes in," she reportedly wrote. "Which, unfortunately, ended in an altercation. It didn’t have anything to do with clout. My husband doesn’t even have social media. The GoFundMe is for everybody involved.”
She accused social media users of spreading false information. “Rafael is a hard-working, loving father and husband, who made a mistake," Medina continued. There are no excuses, but we are hoping that during this time, we can come together, support and donated to the GoFundMe for the entire cause and for the attorney fees." It is unclear if Medina took down the crowdfunding campaign herself or if GoFundMe deleted it.
Tekashi Speaks On The Altercation
After days of being taunted online, 6ix9ine reemerged with a post. He reshared the clip of him getting jumped and seemed to praise his yearslong ability to move freely without incident. "For 2 years I been walking around with no security. Not saying I promote that BUT now you see I really never hid from anything," said 6ix9ine. "If you ever crossed my path or ever came to my house (you girls know who you are) ya can tell the world 'Danny drives his own cars and be solo' You know how many of you people seen me in real life by myself in gas stations, supermarkets, restaurants, etc."
"Anyway what happen here was nothing but cowardly. I’m not mad this happened. In the street there’s no rules so I cant say they were wrong. Obviously it wasn’t fair but again the streets has no rules. Just imagine having nothing to do to with a situation and feel obligated to make it your business. (Very weird) I’m happy to be here still. And I want to say I love my fans. Thank you. P.S : I never knew we respected jumping people. When did that ever become a W???" Check it out above.
