Less than 24 hours after rapper Yung6ix declared on Twitter that he is suffering from success after his father left him with a tough choice of staying with his mother 10 years ago, the rapper shared a post on the social media platform claiming that someone tried to shoot him in broad day light.

“Some Nigga just tried to shoot me in broad day light.” He posted on Twitter, August 16.

It is a known fact that celebrities flaunt their wealth and almost live their daily lives on social media and it is not really known whether the rapper was targeted by haters as he did not mention when, where, or how the incident occurred.

“When my dad was leaving I was just 17 he made it clear if I go with my mum I was gonna suffer. He was right I’m suffering from success,” he wrote in a tweet posted, August 15.
