Might be a tad difficult to lay low in witness protection with a six and a nine tattooed on your forehead. Just saying.....

This is a cautionary tale. No matter what career path you choose, there will be those with nefarious intent. You must guard against it.

Maybe it's time to worry less about imported gangs and a great deal more about the kinds of people this guy represents and the fact his gangster persona is something that resonates with so many people.

For those of you who do not like Hip-Hop and this will be the only time you hear about "rappers" today, I want to let you know that as Hip-Hop fans we generally do not condone this man. Hernandez does not represent what we appreciate in Hip-Hop musically, culturally, or in really any conceivable way. His appeal is outside of fans of rap. There are rappers like Meek Mill, Jay-Z , Kendrick Lamar, and the list goes on who are doing charitable work, activism, and making thoughtful music. They much more accurately reflects what we like about Hip-Hop. Not "6ix9ine."

@Roman Doyle The fact that this even has to be said is sad. The fact that you have to explain to non hip hop (white people) that this 69 dude is not a fan fav and not what children from Hip Hop culture represent is wack. Carry on though.
