6ix9ine recently previewed a new song dissing Young Thug in the aftermath of the latter's snitching allegations. For those uninformed, the allegations surfaced online after a video of the YSL rapper seemingly mentioning Peewee Roscoe's name during a police interrogation was circulated on X on August 27, 2025. Despite Thug's repeated denials and Roscoe defending him amid the backlash, hip-hop followers and rappers alike continued to criticize Thug for allegedly snitching.

According to Hot New Hip Hop, 6ix9ine has been one of the more vocal voices in this criticism against Young Thug. For those uninformed, 6ix9ine has also faced snitching accusations after he testified against two alleged members of a New York street gang in 2019, which resulted in their convictions.

On September 9, 2025, 6ix9ine, whose real name is Daniel Hernandez, took to Instagram to preview a new song dissing Young Thug. In the snippet, 6ix9ine can be seen rapping along to the track, which includes a flip on "The Itsy Bitsy Spider" nursery rhyme, as a gang of hypemen surround him.

The use of this particular nursery rhyme could be a reference to Young Thug's Sp5der clothing brand. Additionally, the post was captioned:

"Seen a snake turn spider turn rat don’t tell the world just please let me out man watchaht."

6ix9ine's diss came days after Young Thug called out several rappers for allegedly snitching on him and other YSL members during the YSL RICO case in his leaked song, Closing Arguments. The first rapper he mentioned was his former labelmate Gunna, who has faced repeated accusations of cooperating with the authorities since he accepted an Alford plea deal in December 2022.

"Yeah, Gunna a rat, Yak a rat/ Slug a rat, Woody rat/ F**k that n***a Obama, he still mad 'bout baby mama (You mad?)/ Slimelife Shawty, make sure you put down your forty (P*ssy)/ DK? Okay, shit, he gay, hey," Thug rapped.
