Written by Jonathan Sawyer in Culture

After testifying against two alleged members of the Nine Trey Bloods, 6ix9ine will forgo witness protection to restart his music career, TMZ reports.

News of the 23-year-old rapper's plans to reenter the music business arrives as he recently snitched on his old gang members as well as other celebrities in order to receive a shortened prison sentence. Prior to cooperating with prosecutors, 6ix9ine was facing a minimum sentence of 47 years behind bars.
