Rapper Daniel Hernandez, better known by his stage name Tekashi 6ix9ine, arrived outside a Brooklyn row house to shoot the music video that would make him famous and ultimately ruin his life.
The menacing chords of his viral song “Gummo” were played as he and a group of men wearing red bandanas danced, swung guns, and made cryptic hand motions.
Hernandez flailed his rainbow-colored hair and flashed his colorful teeth while wearing a green tracksuit.
A recent tattoo of the numbers “6” and “9” that covered half of his forehead became his most distinguishing characteristic, so at one time, he took off his bandana to display it.
