Supervillain: The Making of Tekashi 6ix9ine (2021)
Important; but showed interviewees in a much too favorable light, sacrificing credibility
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.
