6ix9ine has always been one to move differently from his peers. While that may have previously landed him in hot water – particularly during his recent gym beatdown – it’s also done him some favours and is likely why his new “WAPAE” single landed on Saturday (April 15), rather than on New Music Friday. The New Yorker went on an impressive venture around the world to film the upbeat song’s accompanying video, which 6ix9ine says he mostly shot on his iPhone.
“WAPAE OUT NOW 💚💙🧡💜💛❤️,” the controversial entertainer wrote in the Instagram caption of his announcement post this afternoon. He shouted out his collaborators, Angel Dior, Lenier, and Bullin 47, before adding, “THIS VIDEO I ALSO FILMED 70% OF IT ON MY PHONE 😂🌈. THANK YOU UGANDA 🇺🇬 THANK YOU DOMINICAN REPUBLIC 🇩🇴 FOR HOSTING THIS VIDEO I HAD SO MUCH FUN. 🇨🇴🇨🇺🇲🇽🇵🇷🇩🇴🇺🇬🇳🇬🇧🇴🇵🇪🇭🇳 🇷🇴 🇸🇻 🇦🇷🇧🇷🇨🇳🇰🇾🇨🇲🇪🇨🇩🇪🇰🇿🇯🇲🇲🇩🇳🇿🇱🇾🇯🇵🇸🇰🇷🇸🇵🇦🇿🇦🇹🇹🏴🇺🇸🇸🇩🇪🇭🇻🇺🇮🇱🇦🇺🇳🇱🇭🇹🇸🇳🇻🇪🇨🇮🇱🇾🇵🇰🇹🇹.”
Even with the recent trials and tribulations of being brutally attacked, it’s obvious that 6ix9ine has been overflowing with creativity. In the “WAPAE” music video we see him smiling from ear to ear while dancing with exuberant groups of local children, also getting up close and personal in the shower with a beautiful woman. “Oh, my baby, what a rich thing / That mulatto, with that little waist / She has everything, she is very pretty / Her type is me, nobody takes her away from me,” his first verse, when translated to English, goes.
Aside from this weekend’s release, the only other song we’ve heard from 26-year-old so far in 2023 is “Bori.” That arrived on the final Friday of March and also sees him working with Lenier.
