Supervillain: The Making of Tekashi 6ix9ine

This "documentary" in my opinion is skewed to the negative, only showing the bad ways Tekashi 6ix9ine hustled to become famous, never showing anything positive. It shows how he changed his look then combined it with his street & gang life on social media to inspire a massive following. It also shows how the FBI used those same social media posts against him and his fellow gang members in court. There is no human angle to this doc, all we see is disdain for the super-snitching super-villain. He had a great Dad, so is he a good dad? Does he visit his Mom, take her to lunch? Does he visit his Dad's grave? He can't be this turnt guy 24\7, there has to be more, Danny Hernandez (6ix9ine) deserves a better doc. He may have done or is doing "bad things", but he is a human who made choices. Were those choices possibly based on his childhood or does he have a mental illness? Would have liked to seen a deeper side to this series. Those who say he has 0 talent can not dispute he has a talent for getting money!

The staging to make Adam 22 and the two TreyWay gang members look like saints hurt the credibility of the series. These people have done awful things yet they are presented to us in an unfairly favorable light.

They used Adam 22 to be a "voice of reason" for the show, where he discusses how gross Daniel's (6ix9ine) sexual assault was. However, Adam 22 has credible rape allegations of his own.

All of that being said, I do appreciate the documentary for exposing Daniel.

The most compelling part of the series to me was Sara (Daniel's ex). I truly admire her strength in sharing her story. I believe that her accounts are the most explanatory of Daniel's behavior and play an absolute crucial role in the series. It is one thing to hurt gang members you've only known a year or two, but it is a totally different story when you abuse the person you've been the closest to since MIDDLE SCHOOL. It shows the true depth of Daniel's selfishness. He does not care for anyone but himself, and the "misunderstood, secretly nice guy" was a total act.

The construct of Superhero/Supervillain is equally as corrosive as the online infamy phenomenon it seeks to explain.

Other than that it is a fair documenting of a wannabe's adventures.

Either you hate him or love him, one cannot deny his success. He became one of today's most controversial and successful hip hop artists. And he achieved this from the bottom. I believe this documentary is extremely well-executed and even though his story is wild as, this guy did everything to stand out and get out from the hood. When he rose to fame I couldn't stand him for being who he is but then his music slowly grew on me. You cannot argue with the fact that he ratted out his whole crew but he's still here and none of us really knew what happened. Give this series a shot, I'm sure it's going to be something new.

I did find it interesting and I get that going with the supervillain stuff was to get attention. But acting as if he was methodical or calculating with everything he did is a joke. You're giving him way way too much credit. Sure people watched because of the outrageousness of it all but to think he had some grand plan in it all is just stupid. And to think he was cool with all the hate he got is wrong as well. He's like millions of other teens in America he got a taste of being famous then went to any lengths to make it continue until it all caught up with him. If it was as calculated as this doc portrays he would've never ended up where he did.
