Tekashi 6ix9ine Shocks Shirtless Showing 200-Pound Weight Loss Battle

Scroll for the insane weight loss. 6ix9ine, making October 2020 headlines after he admitted taking controversial weight loss drug Hydroxycut, proudly updated today to confirm that losing weight was behind his Instagram and music silence. The "ZaZa" rapper, fresh from a new release, posted a pants-only and shirtless photo to open with, then including videos of himself while heavier, also driving fans to swipe for the massive transformation.

"Hey guysss.......... SO the real reason I LEFT Instagram and MUSIC for 6 months is because in September I was the biggest I ever got," he began.

All tattoos and much skinnier as he posed outdoors to showcase the pounds he's shed, the former Trey Nine gang member added:

"I weighed 204 pounds and I was kinda going through a lot in life and I was just constantly eating and eating...... I told myself to put the music to the side and focus on myself and here I am today 60 pounds lighter at 140 ..."

6ix9ine, saying that everyone in life "needs a break," continued with some massive motivation, words he extended to his 23.3 million Instagram followers. 

Repping himself as the "king" of New York, the rapper added: "I control what happens in my life” do NOT let anyone tell you that things you want it’s not possible, that’s FALSE!"

Now 60 pounds lighter at 140 pounds, 69, closed, writing: "YOU WANT IT GO GET IT ! OWN THAT SH-T ! I AM AND FOREVER WILL BE THE KING OF NEW YORK CHECK THE F-CKING STATS !!!!!!"

Fans were quick to send the thumbs-up, also throwing him over 200,000 likes before the post was an hour old. See more photos below!

In October of last year, 69 told The Shade Room that he'd overdone the diet pills, even seeing himself sweating in front of his laptop. Per Stereogum:

"He’s already down 25 pounds, and he’ll return to Instagram once he makes his goal weight of 150. He also clarified that he’s only taking Hydroxycut, and not any real drugs, because he’s still on probation. He’s home and reportedly doing “fine” now."
