Nicki Minaj was trending online after both she and rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine confirmed that they had filmed a video for his single, “Trollz” and that only a “portion” of the proceeds would go towards the “bail out” project.
“A portion of the proceeds from #Trollz including merch items, will be going directly to The Bail Project Inc. [@bailproject],” Nicki wrote via Instagram alongside snaps of the videoshoot.
“The fund provides free bail assistance to low-income individuals who can’t afford to pay bail while awaiting their trial. We want to protect and support the thousands of brave people working on the front lines of social justice, using their voices to demand AN END to the targeting and killing of Black Americans by the police. #BlackLivesMatter link in bio to Pre-save #TrollzVIDEO tmrw @ midnight 🎀🦄🌈🌈🌈🌈🦄🎀 “
Neither rapper confirmed exactly how large or small that portion is going to be — but some Twitter followers could not believe that Nicki is working with a confirmed government informant and alleged pedophile — while others fully expected Nicki to work with him despite his reputation.
