Daniel Hernandez (born May 8, 1996) and professionally known as 6ix9ine, Tekashi69, or Tekashi 6ix9ine, is an American rapper. He emerged in the late 2010s with an aggressive vocal style and a highly visible public persona, characterized by distinctive rainbow-colored hair, extensive tattoos, frequent use of social media, and involvement in public controversies and feuds. Hernandez first gained attention in 2017 through a guest appearance on Trippie Redd’s single "Poles 1469". Later that year, he released his debut single "Gummo", which became a sleeper hit and peaked at number 12 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song preceded his debut mixtape "Day69" (2018), which was supported by the singles "Kooda", "Keke" (with Fetty Wap and A Boogie wit da Hoodie), and "Gotti", all of which entered the Billboard Hot 100. His debut studio album, "Dummy Boy" (2018), was led by the single "Fefe" (featuring Nicki Minaj and Murda Beatz), which peaked at number three on the chart. Despite generally negative critical reception, the album reached number two on the Billboard 200 and was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America. In 2015, Hernandez pleaded guilty to a felony count involving the use of a child in a sexual performance and was sentenced to four years of probation and 1,000 hours of community service. In 2018, he was arrested alongside his manager Kifano “Shotti” Jordan and several members of the Nine Trey Gangsters faction of the United Blood Nation street g
