6ix9ine is a shocking and hyper-scandalous US rapper, also known as Tekashi69. Some call him the king, others “snitch” and condemn his behavior in every possible way.

Biography 6ix9ine – how old and what is the name of the rapper

The real name of the rainbow king of rap is Daniel Hernandez. Born in 1996, May 8, in the American city of Brooklyn. The area was so disadvantaged that it was simply impossible to form a favorable life for a teenager. Once his mother emigrated from Mexico, leaving her daughter there – Daniel’s sister.

It is also known from his interview that he never met his biological father. The future musician and his older brother Oscar were brought up by his stepfather, who tragically died when the boy was finishing 8th grade. After that, he did not return to school. By the way, one of the tattoos on the rapper’s face is dedicated to his brother. Nearby is a mask of a character from the movie “Saw”.

6ix9ine and music

The Hernandez family – of Hispanic blood, never knew prosperity in material support. Therefore, after the loss of the breadwinner, Daniel went to work as a waiter, and between times he was spinning in a small sale of drugs. By the age of 20, the name Tekashi69 will forever fit into his biography, and then 6ix9ine – in transcription for Russian speakers it is pronounced like “Sixnine”. Under these nicknames, in 2017, the music industry heard the first track “Gummo”, which immediately hit the world chart leaders.

The aggressive style of reading text with lingering “Rra-ta-taa” will only reach the CIS countries in a few years, and Morgenstern, GONE.Fludd and others will pick up the analogy of delivery. For 3 years of creativity, Tekashi released an album and more than 10 songs that got into the TOP-100 of world hits and have platinum certification. In addition to music and the source of many remixes, the new Mexican rapper has become the subject of various memes due to his strange appearance.

Photos and videos of 6ix9ine on Instagram

According to critics and fans of the genre, his appearance and scandalous lifestyle played a significant role in the growth of 6ix9ine’s popularity. The first part includes more than 200 Sixnine tattoos with the number “69”, multi-colored hair and grills in acid colors. The second part of the image is a rich criminal biography. What Tekashi was imprisoned for in the end never contradicted American rap. But the stardom of the musician fell on the wave of social networks. It was Instagram that became a broadcaster not only of the artist’s successes, but also a means of spreading his offenses. Here, conflicts flare up between Sixkine and other rappers.

Rapper Tekashi and a girl 13 years old

Only 3 videos on the network, which Tekashi posted with his own hand, became the basis for the first serious accusation – pedophilia. The footage shows how the guy and his friend “in an adult way” have fun with a thirteen-year-old girl. At the trial, Daniel will explain that it was the shooting of the video and before the start, in a conversation with a minor actress, her age was announced – 17 years old. The singer did not guess to check this information. The contractor faced 15 years in prison. But at the end of 2015, he nevertheless received a reduced sentence with a suspended sentence.

Why 6ix9ine was imprisoned and for how long

A few years later, one big tour of Europe and a “wrong turn” connection with a criminal gang, Tekashi69 was still in prison for several proven episodes of breaking the law. Among them, the threat of murder, robbery, illegal use and demonstration of firearms. Between the history of underage and outright gangsterism, the eccentric musician constantly shone in criminal reports: he was accused of assault, and he himself was a victim – 6ix9ine was robbed and threatened to be killed.

Based on the totality of the charges, Hernandez could well have been sentenced to 47 years in prison. Being in a scared state, he made a deal with the investigation – this became another big stigma for his rap environment. 6ix9ine gained a reputation as a “snitch” after the release of his testimony. Snoop Dogg and 50cent did not pass by the situation. The latter, by the way, at the beginning of his career, the young rapper called his “son”. As a result of the trial, the musician was given only 2 years in prison – until August 2, 2020.

How much does 6ix9ine make

Billions of views of Tekashi’s clips bring him quite impressive amounts of funds. Insiders are vying with each other trying to calculate how much the performer has earned on the next track. According to the calculations of special sites, the YouTube channel monetizes about $100,000 per month to the 6ix9ine team. In the fall of 2019, while in custody, the musician signed a contract for $10 million. The label was not embarrassed by what the artist was in prison for at that time.

Joint feats with Nicki Minaj increase Daniel’s earnings at times. The video for one of the first joint songs with Nicki “FEFE” was watched over 900 million times in 2 years. And the sensational in 2020 “TROLLZ” has already collected more than 217 million views in a month after the release.

How much is the 6ix9ine shark chain

About how much money the bright and controversial rap musician has at his disposal, his jewelry intelligibly speaks. The image of the singer is accompanied by watches encrusted with diamonds, bracelets and large pendants, for example, in the form of a rhinoceros. After his early release from prison, Tekashi went live on Instagram, where he showed a new thing – a diamond shark on a $500k chain from the cartoon “Finding Nemo”.

6ix9ine’s merch

The same shark became the main concept in 6ix9ine’s merch for new tracks in 2020. Bright and cartoony art has always been used in the creation of clothing and sneakers under the rapper’s brand. Colorful hoodies, suits with the number “69” and the image of a toothy shark, where each tooth is a different color, are sold in various marketplaces. The singer’s cars are decorated in the same style, against which a lot of photos were taken for social networks.

Wife and daughter 6ix9ine

Another side of 6ix9ine’s life that attracted the public was his fatherhood in 2015. Whether Sara Molina was his official wife is not known for sure, but she became the mother of his daughter Saraya. In the abundance of Daniel’s online photos, where there is even a picture of him without a tattoo, pleasant shots of a family idyll at leisure are also posted.

However, the couple’s relationship did not work out. In early 2019, the tabloids were full of headlines that Tekashi69 was a domestic tyrant. Sarah told the media that he tried to rape her and repeatedly raised his hand. It is worth noting here that the reason for such aggression was the girl’s intimate relationship with the artist’s friend. Also, the ex-girlfriend often accuses Hernandez of a bad attitude towards her daughter. By the way, at one of the court hearings, a letter from a certain Marlena was announced – she claims that the rapper is the father of her daughter, too, born in 2018. The former lover of 6ix9ine has an assumption that this is not the only child that the performer did not know about.

Favorite girl 6ix9ine

Tekashi’s new girlfriend’s name is Jade and she tries her best to imitate the created image of her chosen one. Passia is also interested in tattoos and adds colorful curls to her hair. First, the coveted number “69” was stuffed on the chest, then the image of 6ix9ine himself was added. Jade’s external data and face correspond to the Nicki Minaj format – she looks like the girls from the clips and covers for the singles of modern American rappers.

Singer 6ix9ine now

In the spring of 2020, Hernandez recalled his asthma and the risks of contracting coronavirus while incarcerated. In addition, he participates in the witness protection program, so the authorities went to meet him and released him under house arrest. By his 24th birthday, the rapper was already shooting videos and broadcasting on Instagram, where 2 million viewers were convinced that the singer had not escaped from prison, was in good creative condition and was ready to please with new tracks. And all this within the boundaries of 6ix9ine’s house, where he was placed before the end of his executive term.

But, after leaking the first address of his location, Tekashi was forced to move to another place. Further, either for hype, or for a really “calm” end of the arrest without conflicts, the performer deleted Instagram and temporarily disappeared from the network. Meanwhile, his recent songs “Ya ya” and “Gooba” are gaining popularity on the Internet. “Gooba”, as the track is called in Russian, is filmed in bright cartoonish colors with the rapper’s inherent eccentricity.
