Tekashi 6ix9ine

If the word gimmick had a picture to go alongside it in the dictionary, then the subject of this show would be the perfect fit.  Tekashi 6ix9ine began to make a name for himself in the rap game and decided to live out his gangster fantasies, only to wind up facing a heap of trouble and an extended prison sentence.  The reason he became even more famous would have gangsters like John Gotti and Carlos Gambino rolling in their graves - he snitched.  We'll dive into the life of Takashi and try and understand why he looks like a human acid trip and what may have been the foundation for all the chaos that's been his life to this point.  Grab your hair dye, eat a pack of crayons and enjoy this episode of AHC Podcast.                   6ix9ine.
