This means Tekashi is not receiving monetary benefits from the agreement. 

Tekashi made a shocking confession in a sworn declaration to Judge John P. Cronan. The rapper is in the midst of a courtroom battle wherein, Judge Cronan is trying to determine the amount of damages 69 may have to pay for his involvement in the robbery of two people on April 3rd, 2018.

“Right now, I am struggling to make ends meet. I do not know if I will ever command the kind of advances I was paid before my arrest, and my career stalled,” 69 revealed in documents obtained by the outlet.
