6ix9ine continues to trudge forward as a commercial juggernaut, securing himself a massive new plaque for his collection.

Tekashi 6ix9ine may have come to be associated with the many colors of the rainbow, but it would appear he's ready to expand his palette. While it's no secret the man is hellbent on achieving chart dominance by any means necessary, 6ix9ine's quest isn't entirely fruitless. In fact, his collection of plaques has proven to be an impressive sight to behold, and prior to his incarceration he was chomping at the bit to show it off at any occasion. Perhaps that occasion has come once again, as 6ix9ine has secured himself another shiny golden plaque for his efforts.

While it wasn't quite able to hit number one on the Billboard charts, instead clocking in at number three, Tekashi 6ix9ine's "GOOBA" remained a juggernaut in its own right. Boasting two-hundred and twenty-seven million views on YouTube, 6ix9ine's first single since his prison release has already sold over five-hundred-thousand album-equivalent units. 

Of course, with every personal victory secured by the controversial young rapper, his words ring out all the more impactful: "You're mad I'm back, big mad, he's mad, she's mad, big sad." Indeed, many will be mad and sad to some varying combination. And yet he keeps on trucking, antagonistic as ever, albeit with a decreased dose of gangland activity. Are you one of the many driving up the sales of "GOOBA?"
