The mafia and street gangs — shoot, even good friends — are known to live by the code of no-snitching, a term synonymous with no tattle-tailing. Tekashi 6ix9ine was certainly expected to live by that code since he considered himself a full-on member of the Nine Trey Bloods. So, he was seemingly ostracized by hip-hop for testifying. You name it, podcast and radio hosts blacklisted Tekashi, and rappers, as well as rap fans, said they were done with him.
But he didn’t seem surprised by the backlash when addressing it on Instagram Live in May 2020, despite being bothered by the snitching claim. “If there is a street code and there’s something so-called as loyalty and everything, and no snitching and all of that, I get it, right? But where was the loyalty when you was sleeping with my baby mother?” asked Tekashi. “Where was the loyalty when you was caught on the wiretap trying to kill me? Where was the loyalty when you tried to kidnap my mother? Where was the loyalty when you was stealing millions of dollars from me? … So who broke it first?”

The “FEFE” rapper then brought up being allegedly kidnapped by Nine Trey members in 2018, saying he would never be loyal to those guys. “Y’all understand why I snitched, y’all understand. Y’all don’t want to understand,” Tekashi proclaimed.
