Tekashi 6ix9ine was hanging out at an infamous Queens strip club — where a Knicks player was once robbed at gunpoint — before he got held up this weekend, according to police sources.
Cops believe someone spotted the rainbow-haired rapper and later followed him out. Sources told The Post he was wearing a $750,000 chain — which got swiped during the alleged stick-up, along with approximately $15-20K in cash.
The club where 6ix9ine was hanging out is called CityScapes, and is located in Maspeth.
Former Knicks forward Cleanthony Early was shot and robbed outside the establishment in December 2015. His attackers took everything he had — from his cell phone to his gold chains and even the gold caps on his teeth — before putting a bullet in his right leg. Cops later arrested three men, who were allegedly part of the stickup crew that targeted Early.
6ix9ine, whose real name is Daniel Hernandez, had been boasting for months how he was “untouchable” and the “King of New York” following repeated beefs with fellow rappers.
The 22-year-old got a serious wake-up call on Saturday, with online photos showing him in a local hospital — sporting a black eye and swollen cheekbone as a result of the alleged attack.
