Is Kevin Gates, who stoically did his time, feeling a type of way about the record-breaking success of Tekashi 6ix9ine?

A tweet the Baton Rouge spitter fired out seems like it could have been directed to 6ix9ine, who notoriously sang for his freedom and has been bragging about being a snitch ever since COVID got him that freedom a little early.

When you entertain a clown 🤡 you become part of the circus!!!! #Healing

"When you entertain a clown you become part of the circus!!!! #Healing," Gates wrote, with the clown emoji 6ix9ine has adopted as his own.

The #healing suggests the message could just be Gates engaging in the type of self-help motivation he's prone to engage in.

What do you think?  Was the timing of the Tweet just a coincidence? While he's no 6ix9ine, Gates has engaged in some pretty clownish antics of his own over the years.
