World-famous rapper's cars confiscated – sold at scrap price

Rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine has had some of his many cars seized, then confiscated and sold, which several call 'the world's ugliest'.

The 28-year-old rapper Daniel Hernandez, better known by the stage name Tekashi 6ix9ine, has had some of his cars confiscated.

And more than that. For the young American has also had to see cars sold at forced auction by the tax authorities.

The cars, which were covered in the remains of fired paintballs, were sold to collect some of the young rapper's tax debt. However, the cars – a 2019 Lamborghini Urus and 2017 Bentley Continental GT Speed – were sold for far below market value.

A total of 30 different people fined the Lamborghini, for which the tax authorities received DKK 1.15 million. The car has barely 8,000 kilometers.

This is stated by GSA Auctions.

Bentley brought in even fewer kroner. The highest bid crept in just under 600,000 Danish kroner. The car was then also described as being in poor condition, i.a. with holes in the hood and a broken side and windshield.

It is not the first time that Tekashi 6ix9ine has ended up in the spotlight of the authorities. In 2018, he was arrested and charged with illegal possession of weapons and extortion. The following year, he was sentenced to two years in prison, although in connection with the indictment he chose to gossip about other criminals.

It is not the first time that celebrities have to hand over cars and some to the authorities. This sort of thing also happens at home.
