It appears that Tekashi 6ix9ine can’t avoid legal troubles lately, with the controversial rapper facing a $500k lawsuit after skipping a show back in October.

Over the last month, there’s been plenty said about Tekashi 6ix9ine (born Daniel Hernandez). Currently locked up and awaiting a September 2019 trial for federal charges of racketeering, the artist faces a life sentence if convicted.

However, it’s looking as though he might be facing another legal hurdle, with reports that he’s been threatened with a lawsuit regarding his cancellation of a show back in October.

As TMZ first reported, 6ix9ine was scheduled to perform for the Howard University Homecoming weekend in Washington DC on October 28th, but failed to show up. News of his failure to arrive broke only 35 minutes before the show was set to begin,

To make matters worse though, 6ix9ine did actually perform a show that night, playing a surprise set 380km away in the state of New Jersey.

While Hits Before Fame & DMV Events alleged that they were forced to turn away over 400 people waiting in line at the Howard University gig, they note they also had to issue refunds to a further 3,000 people.

Now, the promoters have threatened Tekashi 6ix9ine’s legal team with a lawsuit, seeking $500,000 in damages from the night

While this is apparently the second time that 6ix9ine cancelled an event organised through Hits Before Fame & DMV Events, they also explained he was paid a $58,470 advance for the gig, with the cancellation costing roughly $300,000.

Now, they’re attempting to recoup these losses, in addition to rental and marketing expenses.

While the promoters claim that if 6ix9ine does not pay up, he will slapped with a lawsuit, TMZ notes that his legal team are reportedly doing everything they can to put an end to yet another legal issue facing the rapper.
