Along with all his other usual nonsense, Tekashi 6ix9ine is now comparing himself to the most note worthy DC Comics villain of all time, The Joker. Well at least he’s not delusional enough to think of himself as a hero, so there’s that. Regardless, Tekashi’s reasoning for pointing out the parallels is where we’re having trouble comprehending how exactly he came to that deduction.

Already knowing he saw himself as a “bad guy,” via Karam Gill’s Showtime three part docuseries Supervillain: The Making of Tekashi 6ix9ine, in the series’ first episode, 6ix9ine, who’s real name is Daniel Hernandez, recalls his step-father as a good man. “I feel my steppops was a superhero. He was always helping people without thinking about himself and that’s what a superhero did and that’s what my steppop did.” However adding, “superheroes always die.”
When Hernandez was 13-years-old his step-father was killed during a shopping trip which ultimately led the rapper down his path of darkness and his preference for being the bad guy. Tekashi went on to say, “F*** being a superhero, I want to be a villain. Villains never die.”
“It’s like the Joker, you want to hate him, but you love him,” he said. “He’s the bad guy but you end up falling in love with him. You consistently say, ‘I hate this guy,’ but you can’t stop watching. There’s somewhere deep down where you fall in love with that guy.” Okay right, but what does that have to do with you?
Whatever Tekashi may think of himself, one thing he has that The Joker doesn’t, is a child. And said child’s baby mama, Sara Molina, is fearful Tekashi’s predilection for running his mouth and getting himself into trouble will end up endangering their little girl.
According to TMZ, Molina, “thinks the rapper's been unhinged lately, going off on Instagram Live tirades and trading barbs with Chicago rappers like Lil Reese and 600 Breezy.”
Adding, that unlike 6ix9ine who has the means to hide behind bodyguards, "she and their 5-year-old, Saraiyah, are much more exposed... and she's concerned they might become a target for his enemies.”
We get that Tekashi sees himself as a villain, that part checks. As for the notion of love, sure, we love to hate. However, one would hope that the one time being a superhero would sound appealing to him, would be when it comes to his child. With that said, even villains attend to their own. So hopefully, Molina's claims will be heard and he'll act accordingly.
