Brown entered GTA Online in 2019 with The Diamond Casino Heist update, playing a radio host as well as an in-game avatar. His Yung Ancestor performance was deranged and iconic, immediately becoming a cult favorite among players. Based on the tradition of radio stations and returning characters in GTA games, everyone expects him to return, given that his logo has already been seen in a GTA 6 screenshot.

Danny Brown's honesty regarding his past and excitement for a GTA 6 comeback demonstrate how much artists invest in Rockstar's universe.
