Puerto Rico government recommends that 6ix9ine not visit the country

Tekashi 6ix9ine had a concert scheduled in Puerto Rico, but it was canceled after he suffered many thr3ats.

Controversial rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine has been warned not to make his trip to Puerto Rico for a performance due to security concerns. After the release of his first Spanish album, “Leyenda Viva”, 6ix9ine was scheduled to perform in Puerto Rico on Thursday (20), but the show was canceled.

In a statement shared with a local website in the country, authorities told the rapper that he shouldn't go to the country because there have been multiple thr3ats made against his life. “The Commissioner of the Police Department, Antonio López Figueroa, told the Univisión network that he should refrain from the participation of the rapper Daniel Hernández, artistically known as 6ix9ine, scheduled for this Thursday, at the Coliseo de Puerto Rico, as part of the Premios Juventud ”, reads the statement in Spanish.

Local authorities said they were studying a security plan because the police could not prevent him from traveling into the territory. However, the event decided to cancel the show. “After carefully evaluating the concerns that were raised and working closely with local authorities, the Puerto Rico Convention District Authority, the Puerto Rico Department of Public Safety, and Univisión have concluded that artist 6ix9ine will not be part of the event,” reads the note.

“This decision is based on the safety recommendations issued by the competent authorities, and with the firm commitment to always prioritize the safety and well-being of all those involved and who are watching the show”, added the local statement.

According to 69's Instagram, he landed in his father's homeland on Wednesday (19), where he also claimed that the aforementioned safety warnings were "rumors that are not true". The origin of the thr3ats against the artist was not disclosed.

The troll rapper is known for his antics of shadowing other artists. He has had issues with Lil Durk, Casanova, Chief Keef, G Herbo, Juice Wrld, Ludacris, YG, The Game, and many other rappers in the scene. 6ix9ine's provocative behavior has brought him down in the Hip-Hop world, as his legal troubles have him labeled a "snitcher" by social media critics and some fellow rap artists.
