Tekashi 6ix9ine fans in disbelief as rapper shares worth of Finding Nemo diamond chain

Tekashi 6ix9ine has left his fans in utter disbelief after unveiling the worth of one of his diamond chains.

The rap artist, 24, has been keeping his followers up to date on his wealthy purchases during quarantine as he serves the remainder of his two year prison sentence from the comfort of his home due to fears he would contract the killer bug from behind bars.

In his latest update, Tekashi - whose real name is Daniel Hernandez - took the opportunity to brag about his fame and fortune.

He finally revealed the worth of his signature Finding Nemo diamond chain necklace, which he claims to have splashed almost one million dollars on.

The controversial star took to Instagram where he defiantly posted a video on the balcony of his New York rental home.

Tekashi held up the blinged shark-themed piece, and made sure to zoom the camera in on the thousands of dazzling diamonds which made up the famous animal's face.

According to the rapper, the sea-themed chain set him back a hefty $750,000.

It was worth it though, because the shark figure is now the frontman for his hit new music video, he told fans.

Despite the fact he forked out almost a million dollars on one piece of bling, it turns out that his Finding Nemo gem isn't actually the most expensive material object to his name.

Recently, the Gummo creator admitted that he dropped more than a million on a brand new diamond watch.

Tekashi's latest claims come after the controversial star was forced to move homes after his address was leaked online following his prison release.

According to reports from TMZ, the rapper was advised to move by his lawyer after he shared too much information in a recent Instagram Live video, where he boasted his wealth and fame.

During the vicious Instagram video which 'broke the internet ', as over two million spectators tuned in, he can be seen standing on a balcony with the street's view behind him.

Unfortunately for the star, a nearby resident happened to catch him filming and posted a video to social media revealing his location.

Tekashi was sentenced to two years in jail after he was arrested on racketeering charges.

Since his release from jail last month, the star has been kept busy by releasing music.
