Truth

Even after being kidnapped, 6ix9ine doesn’t sense his danger. He continues to project his violent lifestyle on social media, not recognizing that he’s incriminating himself and those around him. When he’s finally arrested, Tekashi faces a decision that ultimately lands him and others in jail. Upon release, his career burns bright but quickly fades. Much like our former president and so many other supervillains of our time, his toxic persona persists. Series finale.
