Career
Jordan and 6ix9ine met through mutual friendships in the summer of 2017, while 6ix9ine was working on his breakout, hit single "Gummo". From 2017-2018, Jordan served as 6ix9ine's manager and bodyguard, and introduced the rapper to the Nine Trey Gangster Bloods. The Bloods provided 6ix9ine with, in his own words, "career, credibility, street credibility, videos, music, protection". In return, 6ix9ine provided financial compensation to the gang's members, and repped the Nine Trey Bloods. In 2018, it was reported that rapper Fetty Wap, who was featured on a 6ix9ine song, had signed with Tr3yway Entertainment. In November 2018, 6ix9ine accused Jordan of stealing $2.2 million from him in tour money, as well as sleeping with his ex-girlfriend. Shotti denied the accusations. Amid these accusations and their 2018 racketeering trial, their business relationship dissolved.
