Throughout his time in the spotlight, Tekashi 6ix9ine has got up to some pretty wild things. But perhaps none of them are as unexpected as this scene created for his upcoming music video.
The rapper has turned on gang members, been sentenced to jail time and been attacked in a sauna, but Tekashi 6ix9ine isn't done surprising us just yet.

Returning to his music, the thing that originally got him in the spotlight, the rapper took to Instagram this week to reveal that he was travelling to Africa to film a new music video.
Tekashi explained that he had 'no camera team' with him, and instead planned to film the footage himself.
This revelation is enough to set some high expectations - perhaps not for quality, but at least for entertainment - however, the result is like nothing you could have ever imagined.
In the video, Tekashi, with his rainbow-coloured hair, enters through a gate before making his way over to a large group of people, including children.

Everyone is chanting and cheering, and one by one, Tekashi hands out $100 (£80) bills to each member of the group.
It's pretty random for a music video, though we should take into account the fact the rapper has previously been known to flaunt his wealth by posing with huge chunks of cash.
The real wild stuff happens next, when all of a sudden the camera cuts to reveal members of the group standing in formation, as if they were gathered around a few friends playing with a skipping rope.

Only, instead of a skipping rope, the two people on either side are holding another human.
Like something straight out of Britain's Got Talent, the person being swung around finds themselves being leapt over by various skilled members of the group, with one even showing off their talents by lying on the ground and pushing themselves up and over their flying friend.
The whole things comes to an end with Tekashi looking on in disbelief - a pretty good representation of the rest of us, I imagine.

You'll probably be glad to know that the group weren't just a few random people who decided to make a skipping rope out of their friend, and instead where a local dance group in Kampala, according to MBU.
Still, I'm not sure that makes it any easier to process, as one viewer shared the video with the caption: "you are absolutely not prepared for what happens 39 seconds into this video."
Another baffled viewer wrote: "I genuinely wasn’t prepared."
Just another day in the life of Tekashi 6ix9ine, I guess...

The rapper hasn't released the full music video from his trip yet, but he's teased that it should be arriving this weekend, so keep your eyes peeled.
