Fat Joe refers to Gunna as a “Snitch”.
Fat Joe doesn’t like Gunna because he still thinks he’s a “rat”. On the latest episode of his Joe & Jada podcast with Jadakiss, Fat Joe show appreciation for Gunna’s new album, but made it clear that he doesn’t like people with snitching allegations.
He said: “My thing is now, you got some guys that are the hottest guys in the game. Rats. Like I get a phone call from somebody. He says, ‘Yo man, you got to check this album out.’ … Listen, ever since I assumed you a rat, your people ain’t f–king with you no more. I’m off you no matter what you do.”
Joe continued: “I never went to see this guy one time in my life after he ratted because he violated the code. I’ve been through this in my life. And so to see it so acceptable how everybody’s acting like, ‘Yo, it’s OK, it’s no problem, it’s good music. … Let’s separate the art form from what it is.’”
Gunna Wunna has been labelled as a “rat” since he took a plea in YSL’s long-running RICO trial, and was accused of snitching on Young Thug. However, he has denied all the accusations, and also supported by his former lawyer Steve Sadow.
“I was Gunna’s attorney but I am NOT speaking on his behalf. This long post is solely to set out the truth,” he said. “Gunna did NOT cooperate, and did NOTHING and said NOTHING to cause harm to Thug’s case. He spent 8 months in jail and was released in Dec. 2022 after entering an Alford plea. Gunna’s plea could not and was not used at Thug’s trial and he was never even named as a witness. He received a 5-yr suspended sentence, with no reporting, no travel restrictions, no living restrictions, and no probation.
“Over the last two years, from media reports, he has performed all over the world, achieved international fame and recognition, and earned millions of dollars. Conversely, Thug went to trial and eventually pled guilty and nolo after spending 30-months in jail, received 15 years probation, with reporting conditions and is not even allowed to live in Atlanta. Those that have and continue to bad mouth gunna, get over it. Nuff’ said.”
