69 was born on May 8, 1996 in Brooklyn, New York, to a Mexican mother and a Puerto Rican father.
69 lives in a remote area, there are only 2 rooms in the house but it is crowded with a lot of people, including his mother, his brother, his brother's girlfriend and his girlfriend. As a child, life was hard, he was often hungry, and his sneakers were all found by his mother in the garbage heap.
In early 2010, at the age of 69 and 13, his stepfather (who brought up 69 with one hand) was preparing to go to the grocery store (69 did not go with his stepfather), and tragedy followed, when his stepfather was killed by Kikura on a street outside their apartment.
69 often takes several deep breaths in interviews to continue, saying that his stepfather was his idol. (He said on radio that his stepfather's word was "Real Dad," indicating that he liked his stepfather a lot) After going through this he lost 150 pounds to 98 pounds, and because of this he suffered from depression and post-traumatic stress disorder and was hospitalized, did not speak to anyone for 2 months, and said he had not showered for 2 months.
In 8th grade, 69 decided to drop out of school when he was only 14 years old. He decided to go to work to cover the family's housing expenses and take care of his mother. He had done a lot of work, he had worked as a handyman at the deli counter in restaurants (the people in the shop said he was not bad for making sandwiches, so he had been opened after a while); he had also sold clothes on the street, and he would wear words printed with dirty words to attract the attention of others, and he had lied to others that he had sold them to save money for a friend's illness; of course, he also hustled
Where the bumps begin: In 2018, 6ix9ine, who faced nine counts of pleading guilty and facing more than 47 years in prison, was eventually sentenced to 2 years in prison at the expense of Smith, and will be released on August 2, 2020.
In mid-March due to the outbreak in North America, 6ix9ine's lawyers implored the judge to release 6ix9ine early, citing the fact that 6ix9ine had asthma and was infected with the virus or would die.
6ix9ine's application for early release was approved, but 6ix9ine was also transferred to home imprisonment and was required to wear GPS positioning devices until the end of the remaining sentence. Lawyers said 6ix9ine was allowed to log on to social media while at home, as well as to post music compositions. But as a whistleblower, "getting out of prison and getting out of the funeral" is almost a sure ending.
So some people can't help but ask, what exactly does 6ix9ine do? Why does traffic and scolding go hand in hand?
In November 2018, 22-year-old American rapper 6ix9ine was arrested by the FBI. On January 23 of the following year, 6ix9ine pleaded guilty to nine federal charges in court, when he was facing a minimum of 47 years in prison. For a popular singer, it's clear he doesn't want to stay in prison until he's 69. In particular, he also happens to be called 69. Seeking a commutation, 6ix9ine began working with police. According to 6ix9ine's agreement with the police, he would be acquitted as long as he fully cooperated with the investigation.
His confession was so positive that he testified directly to other members of the organization and confessed to gang members. He said he was a member of the Nine Trey Blood Gang, making money for the gang, and said Cardi B, Jim Jones, Trippie Redd, NBA star John Wall were also members of the Blood Gang. It also led him to be denounced as "Snitch" by a large group of people, including Snoop Doggy (Snitch means little mouse, also referring to whistleblowers).
I believe that in the songs of 6ix9ine, you often hear such a word - TreyWay. Trey here refers to the Nine Trey Blood Gang, a branch of the Blood Gang. 6ix9ine, who became a rapper for 15 years to make a living, was not a professional rapper, but he realized that people's provocative behavior towards him on social media could bring him more attention. At that time, in order to make himself famous quickly, he registered five or six ins accounts, posted some indescribable content to attract people's attention, and soon attracted small-scale attention. After that, he formed a team to start shooting the MV, and the first MV they shot was called "69".
6ix9ine then began experimenting with adding gangster elements to music, finding The Nine Trey Blood Gang wanted them to appear in the MV for his new song "Gummo", and 6ix9ine bought a square turban and two bottles of Hennessy for the members of TheIne Trey Bloods. The song "Gummo" also became a turning point in 6ix9ine's life, allowing him to start a connection with The Nine Trey Blood.
After that, 6ix9ine and the gangster formed a mutually beneficial model, 6ix9ine began to promote his social personality, rubbing the heat of the gang, and the gangster used 6ix9ine's song to promote his gang.
6ix9ine's songs are relatively simple, but catchy, can quickly convey their emotions to the audience, 6ix9ine later admitted that he no longer worked on rap technology, and never left the gang theme.
On November 9, 6ix9ine was arrested for his involvement in gang activities and for extortion and gun dealing, with a maximum sentence of life in prison on two of several counts he was charged with. At the time, his lawyer argued that 6ix9ine had never been a gang member, that he was just acting like a gang member, which was part of his rapper image. In court, however, 6ix9ine accepted all the charges.
In order to regain his freedom, 6ix9ine chose to cooperate with the authorities, he confessed a large number of gang members, which directly led to many peers and producers saying that they would no longer cooperate with him, and even some gangsters said on social media that the day he was released from prison was the day of the funeral, and his bodyguards also left collectively because of the high risk.
The 6ix9ine incident is like a microcosm, reflecting many of the problems of current popular culture. The reason why 6ix9ine is the sadness of popular culture is precisely because this matter has no content of most culture itself...
6ix9ine has mentioned in past interviews that he has written and sung songs on the tour bus, which is very moving, and he was the only one who cared about music. And what about today? A musician, the biggest focus of attention is no longer the music itself, even he himself may not have time to care about his musical response in the end, only cold data and the dead president...
From this perspective, 6ix9ine is a classic example, and similar events are everywhere in the entertainment industry, which is not a sad thing?
