According to US prosecutors, Silk City rapper Fetty Wap was arrested Monday for allegedly threatening to kill a man and calling him a “rat” over FaceTime.
Willie Junior Maxwell II, who goes by the stage name Fetty Wap, reportedly pulled a gun on the call and said, “I’m going to kill you and everyone you’re with,” federal prosecutors said.
The Feds also showed photos of the rapper – who is said to be worth $10 million – flashing his gun over the phone call, which allegedly happened in December 2021.
After the man called the rapper a rat, he responded by saying, “Your husband is a rat,” prosecutors say.

Rapper Fetty Wap was arrested on federal drug charges and taken into custody Oct. 28 at Citi Field Stadium in New York City. He is pictured arriving at the festival shortly before his arrest.
The recording star’s December call came about a month after he was arrested at the Rolling Loud Festival at Citi Field in Flushing, Queens, for being part of a multi-million dollar heroin and fentanyl ring on the coast.
The virtual threats could be part of the aftermath of this arrest.
The FBI seized $1.5 million in cash, along with stacks of pressed cocaine and bags of heroin and fentanyl, which the rapper along with five others — including a New Jersey correctional officer — sold in Long Island and New Jersey.
The ‘Trap Queen’ rapper, who is blind in one eye due to glaucoma, hit number two on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2014 with his ballad about strippers, money and dealing crack on the gritty streets of Paterson. In 2015, he became the first rapper to who has had three top 20 songs on Billboard since Eminem in 2013.
His songs often deal with topics such as drugs, drug trafficking and violence.
He has worked with Drake, French Montana, Nicki Minaj and others.
Fetty has been sued many times for copyright infringement, defamation, and assault. He was arrested in 2017 for drunk driving, aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle and reckless endangerment after being caught drag racing on a Brooklyn highway.

He was arrested last October and charged with conspiracy to distribute controlled substances and is currently awaiting trial after being released days later on $500,000 bail
His first federal drug charges came as part of the coast-to-coast operation. The Feds claim the group buys cocaine, heroin and fentanyl in California and ships it or drives across the country in hidden compartment vehicles.
According to a federal complaint, Fetty Wap supplemented his income as a recording artist by dealing drugs at a “kilo level.”
He was recently photographed frolicking in the Miami surf with a mystery woman.
If convicted, he faces life imprisonment
