6ix9ine’s net worth in 2023
The rapper has a net worth of just $500,000, Celebrity Net Worth reveals.
In 2021, HITC reported that Tekashi was worth $8 million, so it has plummeted significantly in the past two years.
The star earned a significant amount of money over the years through his record deals, releasing two studio albums and many singles.
However, his career has been impacted by the star’s criminality and jail time. He was arrested in 2018 on racketeering charges and initially faced 47 years in prison.
This was reduced to 24 months after he pleaded guilty to the New York gang charges. He was then released early due to coronavirus concerns as he has asthma.
The rapper spent the last few months of his sentence on home confinement before being freed in August 2020.
Rapper suffering financial hardship
In March 2022, the star, whose real name is Daniel Hernandez, claimed he was facing severe financial problems in civil court documents.
The rapper claimed he was receiving no income from music royalties and was unable to earn any money from touring.
“I do not know if I will ever command the kind of advances I was paid before my arrest, and my career stalled,” he said in the filing.

“I did receive large advances under the recording artist and merchandising agreements prior to my arrest,” the rapper continued.
“However, I do not receive any royalties under those agreements either since my royalty accounts remained un-recouped.”
He said he had had to try and restart his career after his release from prison and “was out of the business for two years” which caused him to “lose all the momentum” he had.
“I may never reach the levels of success I had before my arrest.”
Inside his career
Born in Brooklyn, New York, 6ix9ine began rapping in 2012 after meeting Peter ‘Righteous P’ Rodgers, who was the CEO of New York record label Hikari-Ultra.
He came into the vegan bodega where the teen was working in Bushwick, Brooklyn, and asked if he rapped due to his appearance.
This sparked an interest in rap and he began releasing songs in 2014, starting with the hit 69, followed by Pimpin, Who The F*** is You and 4769 in the same year.
He continued releasing tracks over the following years and gained big success, but didn’t drop his debut album Dummy Boy until 2018.
The star became popular for his agressive rapping and use of anime in music videos and he adopted the name Tekashi69, which references Japanese cartoons.
His rainbow hair and face tattoos gave him a unique look and the star released his second studio album TattleTales in 2020.
However, his career has still not recovered after his arrest.
