Before the hype, the beef, the cases… before the rainbow teeth and hair, 6ix9ine was Tekashi69, an underground talent on the rise. We reached out to the then known as Tekashi, back in March of 2017, before the release of his first hit video “Gummo” to see what he was all about, what drove him to create, his aspirations as an artist and a potential short documentary video. It was never meant to be as just a few months later with the release of “Gummo” Tekashi69 became an internet sensation, provoking all the usual suspects to scramble for his attention for a record deal and coverage. Eventually rebranding himself as 6ix9ine and provoking the media world and his peers into becoming an infamous phenomenon.
