LIL Durk has been trolled by rival 6ix9ine after the rapper and his girlfriend India Cox were targeted by home invaders.
Tekashi wrote on Instagram with a series of laughing emojis: “Y’ALL thought this man was gangsta. They sliding on this man every other week DAMN give him a break.”

The controversial hip hop star added: “SOMEONE SAID @lildurk not gon slide till they kill his girlfriend. YALL CRAZY.”
After facing criticism for his comments 6ix9ine said: “Don’t get mad at me…I’m not the shooter.”
The rapper is allowed to use social media despite the fact he is under federally supervised probation for the next five years following his release from jail.
Following his release, Tekashi’s attorney Dawn Florio insisted her client would not “start beefs” or troll other rappers on social media, TMZ reports.
But he appears to have made a habit of doing just that, bragging about his days of “shooting and robbing” other rappers in a February video.
He was also slammed for apparently mocking King Von’s tragic death just hours after the rapper was shot.
And he reportedly mocked Lil Durk in the wake of the death of his brother DThang before his latest outburst.
CRIMINAL HISTORY
The rainbow-haired rapper, real name Daniel Hernandez, was released from jail in April last year over fears he would catch coronavirus in a New York prison.
He served the remaining four months of his prison sentence at home in incarceration.
The rapper has a complex criminal history and is associated with the Nine Trey Gansta Blood gang of New York – labeled a “violent city gang” by the US Attorney Office.
He was originally arrested on racketeering charges and could have faced up to 47 years in prison before striking a plea deal with prosecutors to testify against fellow gang members Anthony ‘Harv’ Ellison and Aljermiah ‘Nuke’ Mack.
The judge described the move as “unprecedented”.
Following the deal, he was sentenced to just two years in jail, 13 months of which he had already served.
Tekashi also pleaded guilty to “the use of a child in a sexual performance” after posting a video in 2015.
HOME INVADERS
Lil Durk and his girlfriend India were forced to fend off armed home invaders during a wild exchange of gunfire on Sunday morning.
The couple was allegedly awoken after being shot at before they pulled out their guns and returned fire, according to reports.
Neither 29-year-old Chicago-born rapper – whose real name is Durk Banks – or Cox were injured when the shooting erupted at around 5am in the Chateau Elan neighborhood of Braselton.
The Georgia Bureau of Investigation is seeking leads to help in their pursuit of the perpetrators, according to TMZ.
The couple’s home invasion and a shootout occurred a month after Durk’s brother, DThang was slain outside of a strip club called Club O, in Harvey, Illinois, according to UPROXX.
In 2019, Durk surrendered to Atlanta authorities after he was being sought for a February shooting outside the Varsity restaurant.
He was facing a rap that included a criminal attempt to commit murder and a criminal street gang charge, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported.
Durk announced he would turn himself in over Instagram.
VIRAL FAME
He was subsequently granted a $250,000 bond after a judge rejected a prosecutor’s request to remand him, WSB-TV reported.
Under the terms of his release from the nonfatal shooting, the rapper was forced to wear an ankle bracelet, forbidden from being anywhere near a weapon and had to abide by a home curfew from 11pm to 7am every day.
It’s unclear if the terms of his bond were in place at the time Durk and Cox were involved in Sunday’s gunfight at his home.
The rapper’s release of “Voice of the Heroes” where he teamed up with Lil Baby earned the top album spot last month.
The 18-track work featured talented collaborations with Travis Scott, Young Thug, Meek Mill, and Rod Wave.
Since his release from jail, Tekashi has been releasing music, including TattleTales, which is the second studio album by the American rapper.
The rapper first found viral fame by uploading tracks to SoundCloud.
As of 2020, his net worth is roughly estimated at nearly £3,230,000.
The rapper, whose name is pronounced “six nine”, first began releasing songs in 2014 and gained mainstream attention for his style of aggressive rap mixed with anime visuals.
He rose to fame in late 2017 with the release of his debut commercial single Gummo which became platinum, but his career has also been blighted by personal and legal issues.
Prior to his music career, he sold marijuana to support his family after his father was murdered in 2009.
