Rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine already knows what life will look like once he finishes his upcoming three-month prison sentence next year after a judge ordered the 29-year-old performer, born Daniel Hernandez, to complete 12 months of supervised release that includes mental health treatment focused on anger management as well as outpatient drug counseling.
According to court documents, the rapper is preparing to take the structure seriously.
6ix9ine previously told the outlet that he plans to spend his time behind bars getting in better shape, even joking that he would rely on a single box of Oreo cookies a day to help shed pounds.

He expects to be kept away from the general population because of his history as a cooperating witness in his high-profile federal racketeering case that targeted the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods.
His legal troubles have continued this year after authorities raided his property and discovered drugs. When delivering the sentence, the judge slammed the rapper for not taking his probation seriously.
“He keeps blowing it,” Judge Engelmayer said during the hearing. “From time to time your actions suggest that you believe that ordinary rules don’t apply to you.”
Weeks later, his mother was violently targeted during a home invasion while he was livestreaming from the residence.
