On May 9, the rainbow-haired rapper released “Gooba,” which makes it his first single since his sentencing was cut short. The song brings everything that makes 6ix9ine, from addressing his haters, to saying that he is “clout” and making it known that he is here to stay.
The visual for “Gooba” was also released with the single. It featured the rapper with six females on a colorful set with paint splashed on them, as they danced to the song. Toward the ending of the video, 6ix9ine showed off his ankle monitor and took a jab at the “rat” situation by replacing his face with a rat animation.

Tekashi69, not only took too his Instagram to promote the album through a post, but he also sat down with his fans on IG Live. He touched base on people calling him a “rat” and those in the industry, who said he wouldn’t make it out since he had cooperated with the government.
“You know why people so mad?” he expressed in the live stream. “Because they thought it was over for me. They counted me out. ‘Oh, you ratted, it’s over for you.’ Y’all could never cooperate with the government and come back. Y’all could never do that. I’m a living legend at the age of 24.”
