6ix9ine Slams IRS Over $8 Million Tax Debt
Controversial rapper 6ix9ine is making headlines again—this time over an $8 million tax battle with the IRS. The 27-year-old artist, born Daniel Hernandez, took to Instagram to claim the government is “trying to take everything” from him.
In a since-deleted Instagram Story, 6ix9ine shared a screenshot of an IRS document showing he owes $8,266,000 in unpaid taxes. Alongside the image, he wrote: “The government really trying to take everything from me. Y’all will never break me.”
The post quickly went viral, sparking debate: Is this a case of financial mismanagement, or is 6ix9ine being unfairly targeted?
6ix9ine’s History of Legal & Financial Struggles
This isn’t the rapper’s first run-in with authorities. In 2019, he pleaded guilty to federal racketeering and firearms charges tied to the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods. His cooperation with prosecutors earned him a reduced sentence of two years in prison plus home confinement.
Since his release, 6ix9ine has relied on music sales, streaming revenue, and brand deals to stay financially afloat. However, this massive IRS bill raises questions about his financial planning.
Is the IRS Really After 6ix9ine?
Tax experts say hefty bills are common for high-earning celebrities who fail to report income or deductions accurately.
“Celebrities often have complex finances, and the IRS enforces tax laws uniformly,” says financial analyst Raj Patel. “This isn’t necessarily targeting—it’s standard procedure.”
Still, 6ix9ine maintains he’s being persecuted, continuing his long-standing narrative of systemic victimization.
Fan Reactions: Support vs. Criticism
As usual, public opinion is split:
- Supporters claim the IRS is punishing him for his past cooperation with law enforcement.
- Critics argue he ignored tax responsibilities while flaunting luxury purchases.
One tweet read: “He dropped millions on diamonds but forgot taxes? Now he’s mad?”
What Happens Next?
If 6ix9ine doesn’t pay, the IRS could:
– Place liens on his properties
– Garnish his income
– Freeze his bank accounts
With his turbulent career, this financial blow could further destabilize his future.
Will he recover, or is this another setback? For now, 6ix9ine remains in the spotlight—for better or worse.
