6ix9ine, born Daniel Hernandez on May 8, 1996, is an American rapper and Internet personality who rose to fame in 2017 after his debut single "Gummo" achieved platinum status and peaked at number 12 on the US Billboard Hot 100. Known for his distinctive rainbow-colored hair, excessive tattoos, and legal controversies, 6ix9ine became a polarizing figure in the hip-hop community. His aggressive rapping style, combined with the use of memes, and his unconventional persona, helped him gain an extensive online following.

His career has been a rollercoaster of chart-topping hits and legal troubles. In 2017 and 2018, he released a series of successful singles that not only bolstered his fame but also stirred significant attention due to their provocative nature. His debut studio album, "DUMMY BOY," was released in November 2018 and featured notable hits and collaborations with artists such as Nicki Minaj, Kanye West, and Anuel AA, despite being leaked just days prior to its official release. The album debuted at number 2 on the Billboard 200. 6ix9ine's legal issues reached a peak in late 2018 when he was arrested on charges related to racketeering, weapons possession, and conspiracy to commit murder. His release from prison in 2020 was followed by a return to music with tracks like "GOOBA" and his second studio album "TattleTales", reflecting his undeterred approach to his artistry and public image. Despite his divisive reputation, 6ix9ine continues to influence the music scene with his recent releases such as "GINÉ," displaying his unwavering penchant for igniting conversation and pushing the boundaries of the genre.
