6ix9ine was able to keep his name trending every day on social media in February. One reason was that he released his new "ZAZA" single. There, he called out Lil Durk again and also dissed the late King Von, who was shot and killed in Atlanta in November as he was close with Durk. In the ZAZA music video, 6ix9ine also inserted footage of the altercation in Atlanta between himself and Meek Mill that month.

From that point, Nas X showed a DM from 6ix9ine saying how he'll be in his city as a form of wanting to hang out. 6ix9ine defended himself by showing an empty IG DM convo but many believe he unsent his messages.
