Tekashi 6ix9ine Update: Rapper Turned Rat? Snoop Dogg Thinks So

As Tekashi 6ix9ine takes the stand to testify against the Nine Trey Bloods gang, some members of the rap community are firing back at the rapper. Tekashi 6ix9ine pleaded guilty to nine felony counts, including racketeering, and as part of plea deal is testifying against two fellow gang members in a separate federal case.

“Gin & Juice” rapper Snoop Dogg showed how he feels about Tekashi 6ix9ine’s decision to spare himself a possible minimum 47 years in prison with a Instagram post that displayed a series of emojis, most notably a rat.

Tekashi 6ix9ine has come under fire for allegedly being a snitch with his testimony against the gang that he was once a member of. Snoop Dogg also posted emojis of a police officer, police car, and a judge in his post.

Rapper Meek Mill also threw some shade at Tekashi 6ix9ine by responding to Snoop Dogg's post with one word on the subject, “Ratgoon.” The response was accompanied by a raccoon emoji.

Tekashi 6ix9ine is expected to reduce his sentence by cooperating with prosecutors and has been speculated to be released from prison as soon as January, according to his girlfriend, Jade. Because of the rapper's notoriety and appearance of distinguishable tattoos, he is expected to go into the witness protection program after his trial, TMZ reported.

Tekashi 6ix9ine is also reportedly worried about his, and his family’s safety as a Nine Trey Bloods gang member has sent out a hit on the rapper for providing testimony against the gang he was once affiliated with. Tekashi 6ix9ine has hired extra security for his family, who have reportedly decided not to appear in court to support him during his testimony.
