Tekashi 6ix9ine expects to be released on his expedited sentencing date of December 18.

He had been facing up to 47 years, but he snitched (and snitched and snitched and snitched). If he is released in December he will have ended up spending just a year in a special federal facility for government witnesses.

6ix9ine has already indicated he will reject witness protection and, according to Page 6, he's already at work on his next album.

“It looks like he will be making music right away when he comes home,” said a music insider. “He already contacted a young NYC producer, and someone purchased two beats for him.”

In addition to that young NYC producer, Charlie Puth has said he'd produce 6ix9ine's next single for free.

How big do you think 6ix9ine will be when he gets out?
