Snitching allegations

The paperwork alleged that in 2015, Popp Hunna provided authorities with information surrounding the murder of a classmate of which he and his mother were witnesses. [3] The rumors allegedly prompted American rapper Lil Uzi Vert to tell the rapper to remove him from his latest EP via direct message on Instagram. [8] Following the alleged action by Lil Uzi Vert, American rapper Trippie Redd expressed his discontent towards Popp Hunna commenting "Salute @liluzivert you did wtf you was suppose to do !
