Tekashi 6ix9ine says he faked being a gangster to sell records

BY A.R. SHAW • November 21 2018

According to a report by Blast, Tekashi, 22, whose real name is Daniel Hernandez, has denounced his gangbanging image in rap.

“Daniel Hernandez is completely innocent of all charges being brought against him,” Takashi’s attorney, Lance Lazzaro, said. “He is an entertainer who portrays a ‘gangster image’ to promote his music does not make him a member of an enterprise. Mr. Hernandez became a victim of this enterprise and later took steps by firing employees and publicly denounced this enterprise through a morning show.”

Authorities believe that Tekashi was connected to the Nine Trey gang, which is a “violent” sect of the Bloods. Tekashi’s ex-manager Kifano Jordan, aka Shotti, was also indicted along with Faheem Walter, aka Crippy, Jamel Jones, aka Mel Murda, Jensel Butler, aka Ish, and Fuguan Lovick, aka Fu Banga.
