Gunna Receives Rat Accusation During BET Awards Red Carpet Appearance
The 2024 BET Awards held at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles was a star-studded affair on Sunday night (June 30). Among the many celebrities in attendance was Atlanta rapper Gunna.
However, the evening took an unexpected turn for him when a confrontation erupted on the red carpet.
The incident, captured in a video now circulating online, shows a man, reportedly TikTok user ruthlesssrich, approaching Gunna and his entourage.
The man said while continuing to walk past:
“Gunna Wunna man, you cant be in the city doing all that ratting and sh*t”

The video concludes with one of Gunna's assistants angrily demanding clarification on what the man had just said.
This confrontation is part of an ongoing narrative surrounding Gunna, who has been plagued by snitching allegations since his plea deal in the YSL RICO case back in December 2022.
In court, Gunna admitted that YSL is a gang, a statement that has fueled rumors and backlash despite his and his attorney's claims that the plea does not impact Young Thug's case.
As a result, Gunna has found himself ostracized in certain circles, although he still has support from figures like Young Thug's father. The red carpet incident at the BET Awards isn't the first time Gunna has faced public accusations of snitching.
In August of last year, a similar situation occurred when a man confronted Gunna at The Palms Resort in Las Vegas, calling him a rat.
These public confrontations highlight the ongoing tension and controversy surrounding Gunna's legal battles and their impact on his reputation in the hip-hop community.
Despite these challenges, Gunna continues to push forward with his career.
The rapper remains a prominent figure in the music industry, and his appearance at the BET Awards underscores his determination to remain in the public eye.
However, the shadow of the YSL RICO case and the snitching allegations continue to follow him, adding a layer of complexity to his public persona.
