Gooba

6ix9ine's 'Gooba' is a song that is emblematic of the rapper's confrontational and unapologetic style. Released after his high-profile release from prison, the lyrics are a direct response to his critics and detractors. The song is filled with bravado, as 6ix9ine flaunts his wealth, status, and indifference to the opinions of others. He uses aggressive language and imagery to assert his dominance in the rap game and to address the controversy surrounding his legal issues and reputation for 'snitching.'

The song's chorus and verses are punctuated with taunts aimed at those who are envious or critical of his success. 6ix9ine makes it clear that he sees himself as above the fray, referring to himself as 'clout' and mocking those who chase it. The repeated lines 'Are you dumb, stupid, or dumb, huh?' serve as a rhetorical question to his haters, emphasizing their perceived foolishness for underestimating or opposing him. The use of phrases like 'big mad' and 'big sad' further ridicule his opponents, suggesting that their emotional reactions are overblown and insignificant to him.

Culturally, 'Gooba' reflects the often combative nature of the rap industry, where feuds and disputes are part of the landscape. 6ix9ine's aggressive posturing and the song's bold beats create a track that's meant to assert his return to the music scene and re-establish his presence. Despite the controversy, or perhaps because of it, 'Gooba' became a commercial success, showing that 6ix9ine's strategy of leveraging his notoriety into attention for his music can be effective.
