According to TMZ,6ix9ine is being sued by a group of producers from Texas who go by the "Beat Demons." They have a beat instrumental titled "Regular" which sounds very similar to that of "GOOBA." This beat was originally put on YouTube in January 2018, which was over two years before GOOBA was released. The producers cite in this lawsuit how GOOBA exhibits the same melody, form, structure and function. In the end, they are looking to earn the profits from GOOBA.

The "GOOBA" copyright situation isn't the only legal battle that 6ix9ine is going through in this new year. Last month, he was also sued by a stripper out of Miami, according to TMZ. This was due to the woman accidentally being hit in the head by a champagne bottle from 6ix9ine. The bottle was thrown after  a man called 6ix9ine a "rat," which ended up provoking him to make that move. 6ix9ine is being sued for aggravated battery and the club the woman works at is facing gross negligence.

In a recent Instagram video, 6ix9ine showed off his cars and bragged about how he's supposedly made $20 million since being released from prison. There, he also called out Meek Mill again and challenged him to a one-on-one fight. It's unclear if he wants that to be an actual fight in the streets or a professionally organized one such as a celebrity boxing match. Obviously, a lot of fans would much prefer the second option, as that would also generate money for both sides.
