The controversial rapper made the announcement on his Instagram account, @6ix9ine, sharing a snippet of his verse along with a challenge to fans: “100,000 comments if you want this ❤️💚💛💜💙 LOCKED UP PART 2 IM ON ALBUM MODE 🔥 THIS ALBUM GOING CRAZYYYYYYY @akon.” Given 6ix9ine’s fan base, it seems likely he’ll hit his target.
In the snippet, 6ix9ine raps about regret, negotiating deals with his lawyers, and his desire to see his daughter again. However, true to his notorious style, he teased the full release of the track, saying it will only drop once he reaches 100,000 comments.
Akon’s collaboration marks the first time another artist has publicly joined forces with 6ix9ine since his release from prison, proving to be a bold move. The post already has over 2 million views, showing that fans are eager to see what this unexpected duo will deliver.
