6IX9INE’s Vape Partners Sue Rival Company Over Rap Star’s Exclusive Deal

In a dramatic turn of events in the world of hip-hop and vaping, Dummy Vapes, the brand endorsed by controversial rap sensation 6IX9INE, has taken legal action against rival company Fume. The legal battle centers around allegations of Fume attempting to undermine Dummy Vapes’ exclusive deal with the rapper.

According to documents uncovered by TMZ on September 20, Dummy Vapes has initiated a lawsuit against Fume, accusing them of interfering with their celebrity collaboration with 6IX9INE (Vape Partners). The collaboration, forged in February 2023, was a strategic move for Dummy Vapes to have the rapper exclusively endorse their vaping products. However, in a shocking twist, news surfaced in June that Fume had approached 6IX9INE, dangling a tempting $1 million offer.

Despite their initial efforts falling flat, Fume seemingly changed tactics and turned to 6IX9INE’s girlfriend, Yailin la Mas Viral, offering her a lucrative $250,000 contract. This maneuver proved successful, as by July, 6IX9INE had entered into a merchandising venture with Fume (Vape Partners). It’s worth noting that 6IX9INE later disclosed that Fume was the driving force behind the $1 million payout to Kodak Black for their collaborative track, “Shaka Laka.”

To further complicate matters, Fume even introduced 14 different vape flavors, some boldly named “Dumy Vapes by Fume.” This move didn’t sit well with Dummy Vapes.

In a bid to salvage their partnership, Dummy Vapes managed to persuade 6IX9INE to release a public service announcement reaffirming his allegiance to their brand. He clarified that his association with Fume was solely through his girlfriend’s deal. Unfortunately, the situation took another unfavorable turn.

Allegedly, Dummy Vapes had invested a significant sum, $60,000, for 6IX9INE to take a private jet to promote their brand at an industry event in Las Vegas. However, he abruptly withdrew from the commitment, citing directives from Fume as the reason.

In response to these grievances, Dummy Vapes has taken legal action, seeking unspecified damages in the lawsuit.

Interestingly, 6IX9INE recently claimed in an interview with the True Life Network Podcast (premiered on September 16) that Fume was the source of the funds paid to Kodak Black for their collaboration. He emphasized that Fume was the rightful owner of the song and the one who disbursed the million-dollar payment.

It’s worth noting that despite the substantial financial backing, their collaborative track, “Shaka Laka,” received mixed reviews within the hip-hop community. Notably, Boosie Badazz and several other rappers expressed their displeasure over Kodak Black’s association with 6IX9INE, given the rapper’s controversial reputation within the industry.

As this legal battle unfolds, the hip-hop and vaping communities eagerly await further developments. Stay tuned for updates on this captivating story (Vape Partners).
