It be your own people. Tekashi 6ix9ine's former crew allegedly planned to kill him after he fired them earlier this month, TMZ reports. 

According to multiple federal wiretap transcrips, obtained by the gossip site, several ex-members of the "FEFE" rapper's cew were gunning for him following his appearance on the "The Breakfast Club" (where he explained why he terminated his team), just days before his November 18 arrest.

In one recorded converastion, one of his ex-crew members talked about "feeding" the 22-year-old rapper after his interview on the radio show, which prosecutors reportedly believe means unloading bullets. In another wiretap recording, a former member of Tekashi's inner circle, Jamel Jones — who, like Tekashi, is also currently behind bars — is heard speaking to Tekashi's former manager Kifano Jordan, aka Shotti, about 6ix9ine turning against his alleged former gang Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods. "[Tekashi] is trying to dry snitch at the same time, homie. But he keep saying, 'f**k Treway, f*k* that ni**a, Treyway. Ain't no ni**a, Treway. F**k Treway,'" he said. Shotti then responded: "Imma feed him though."

A third recorded conversation between an unamed ex-member of Tekashi's crew member and Jamel, revealed that people were planning to get him back for his decision to separate himself from the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods "That's cool. Now he gotta get violated," the unnamed ex-member told Jamel. "Yeah, super violated. Super duper. Ain't no much he could really do unless he run around with 100 armed securities all day," Jamel replied.

The threatening conversations apparently caused the FBI to bring Tekashi in for questioning before his arrest. However, after he reportedly refused to help with their investigation, he was arrested a day later for fear others might be harmed in an attempt to kill the rapper.

6ix9ine is currently being held in a federal prison without bail, facing 32 years to life, after being charged with six federal crimes. Tekashi is being accused of committing the string of crimes with five of his alleged Nine Trey gang members. The charges include: "conspiracy with others to commit racketeering, discharging a firearm while committing a crime, committing a crime of violence in aid of racketeering, assault with a dangerous weapon, carrying a firearm, and committing a crime in aid of racketeering.

On Monday (November 26), 6ix9ine plead not guilty to the federal charges against him, and his trial was set for September 4, 2019. The "BEBE" rapper will seemingly have to wait behind bars for nearly a year as he was denied bail in his last court appearance. However, it is possible he could be released on bail before his September trial since his bail was not addressed in court on Monday, and his attorney, Lance Lazzaro, plans to apply for bail directly to the trial judge in the coming weeks.
