Lil Tjay’s experienced a tumultuous year following his July 2022 shooting but he also caught a charge back in January for carrying a weapon. Given that he was hospitalized for several months, it seems inevitable that he would take precautionary measures to prevent another incident from occurring. However, it seems as though the rapper may have a rat in his crew who turned on him or at the very least, tipped off authorities, leading to his arrest.
The rapper took to Instagram this week where he detailed the allegations of his friend being a rat. During a stream on Instagram Live, he said that someone close to him, who he identified as Tut, snitched on him to authorities. “Word to my mother I’m on timing n***as is milk, n***a. The n***a Tut is a rat. This shit is beneath me,” he said, claiming that others have tried to hide the truth from him.

Tjay explained that he only went out of his way to expose the individual because people wanted to deny the truth. However, he provided a video of a conversation he had with an individual about the allegations. The rapper furiously confronted the person into admitting that there was someone cooperating with police. “N***as is rats.. that’s why n***as don’t wanna talk,” he continued during his live stream. “N***a stop inviting me to come to hood shit. We could play ball, n***a. Y’all n***as know what I’m into, n***a,” he added.
At this point, it remains unclear what Tjay was dimed out for but considering his arrest earlier this year, it feels as though it could be connected to that. Otherwise, Tjay has returned to the rap game for an official comeback. Along with the success of Ice Spice’s “Gangsta Boo,” he dropped off “Give You Want You Want” in late 2022. In recent months, he’s been on the road far more frequently. Hopefully, a new album is on the way but at this point, it’s unclear when he might drop.
