US rapper 6ix9ine has offered to appear on television for his first interview to tell his side of the story.
On Wednesday night September 9, Fox 5 New York aired the first part of a multi-segment interview with the Brooklyn rapper who the streets now regard a federal informant.
The moment is the first television interview of his career. The interview was conducted by journalist Lisa Evers, who announced the sit-down earlier today on Instagram.

In her post, she shared a behind-the-scenes photo from the forthcoming one-on-one interview.
She wrote:
“#lisaeversexclusive @6ix9ine sits down with me for his first TV news interview,” she captioned the post. “No question off limits! See Part 1 tonight on #fox5news 10p Ch5 NYC/Tri-State & live stream worldwide on fox5ny.com & free FOX5NY app! #fox5ny @chrismsobel @fox5ny.”
It appears Tekashi had been trying to get an interview with someone with a major network recently. Last week, Gillie The King exposed a recording of a phone call that he received from 6ix9ine offering to appear on his Million Dollars Worth of Game Podcast.
“I think this is a perfect one-on-one conversation,” 6ix9ine could be heard telling Gillie over the phone. “I met you in Philadelphia. You seen my growth. This is probably the biggest thing you gon’ ever touch, brother.”
Unfortunately for 6ix, Gillie who felt disrespected declined the offer. It looks like Fox 5 News was set to give Tekashi the opportunity to say what he has to say. The interview comes as Tekashi is carrying out the promotion of his new album, TattleTales, which dropped on Sept. 4.
The LP is seeing major fluctuation with its forecasted sales numbers. The album was initially projected to push 150,000 equivalent album units and debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart.
That tally then dropped by 100,000 units, with speculation being that the plummet was caused by ineligible bundles.
