Honestly, I don’t know why it took me this long to realize this.
If you haven’t been living under a rock you would probably know that 6ix9ine has been running numbers up all over the place. But the other day I actually started looking back at all his videos and realized that he is KILLING IT. Like beyond anything I’ve ever seen. Every music video he drops gets an unreal amount of views. So what I’m going to do is put it into perspective. I will show the song and the amount of views he’s getting on each one. (It’s actually crazing seeing the numbers in one place).
Gummo – 290M
Gotti – 245M
Bebe – 224M
Billy – 201M
Keke – 101M
Fefe – 404M
Tati – 94M
Poles – 166M
Just between these songs right here (still missing some) he has a total well over a billion views. Obviously he isn’t going to do crazy numbers like Drake, Beyonce, or some other mega-star. But for only 1 year in the game and consistently having these type of numbers, this might be one of the most impressive stats we ever seen. Whether he declines as an artist or not, the damage is already done and 6ix9ine made his mark.
