Tekashi 6ix9ine claims he has been using fake money on Instagram as he is going broke

Tekashi 6ix9ine is claiming to have used “prop money” in a recent Instagram video where he flaunted over $2 million in cash to his fans.

In the clip posted to his official IG account, the 25-year-old showed off the hefty amount of money he’d stored in the trunk of his Lamborghini before going on to declare, “This is really my lifestyle.”

However according to TMZ the Mexican/American rapper claims all the money shown in the video was just a prop after being asked about the large sum he still owes in outstanding lawsuits and restitution fees.

“I ain’t got it right now,” 6ix9ine, whose real name is Daniel Hernandez, told the news outlet. “That was prop money.”
