In this episode, I dig beneath the silly meme surface of “6-7” and expose the darker spiritual, cultural, and algorithmic machinery behind it.

What starts as a harmless viral chant becomes a window into drill-rap violence, Santeria practices, and the transactional nature of pagan “blessings.” I break down how the rapper behind the meme, Skrilla, openly attributes his career to rituals involving animal sacrifice and a pantheon of gods—and why his body language shows he regrets the bargain.

We look at how the algorithm amplifies spiritual influence, how “fame” can twist into a monkey’s paw curse, and how the kid who made the meme blow up is now trapped as the permanent “6-7 Kid.”

This isn’t fear-mongering. It’s a dissection of how modern culture, digital virality, and ancient spiritual systems collide—how a nonsense phrase can unintentionally reveal an economy of worship, influence, and unseen power.
