Tekashi 6ix9ine can officially say “I’m back, they mad. Big mad, stay mad.” On Monday, June 22, Billboard announced that 6ix9ine has landed his first No. 1 record thanks to the Nicki Minaj collaboration “Trollz.” The track beat out DaBaby and Roddy Ricch’s “Rockstar” for the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100.
