The 37-year-old pop singer shared a tweet on her Twitter handle where she shared two pictures with 6ix9ine while making the announcement about her new song.

One of the followers commented and asked her to post a picture without him. Another user asked the Bang Bang singer to do a song alone rather than doing it with 6ix9ine. Another user chimed in and asked Nicki to end the collab as its never too late and then her fans can pretend that it never happened. A fourth user commented and wrote that Nicki could have collaborated with Taylor Swift instead of with 6ix9ine.
Reportedly, the new single will drop at June midnight and all the proceeds from the collab will go to The Bail Project Inc, which is a Black Lives Matter organization. Both the artists announced this on their social media handles. Tekashi 6ix9ine announced his collaboration with Nicki Minaj on a new single called Trollz.

Trollz will be the second single form Tekashi 6ix9ine after being released from prison. Tekashi 6ix9ine was sentenced to 2 years of jail time due to his past. Reportedly, Tekashi gave out all the information needed by the cops for a reduced sentence. He was recently released due to the pandemic. His first single after release called Fete was a huge hit. It was reported that nobody wanted to collaborate with Tekashi 6ix9ine when he got out of jail but this has been proven wrong.
