Fetty Wap was just arrested a few months ago and is currently bound on terms after being released last November, but he was apprehended again after doing a shocking thing; what happened?

According to NBC News, the hip hop artist was arrested in Newark, New Jersey, earlier today. He was later indicted in the Eastern District of New York.

The "Trap Queen" hitmaker will reportedly remain behind bars after Magistrate Judge Steven Locke revoked his bond this afternoon.

Per court documents obtained by the outlet, the government got ahold of a video recording of the rapper talking to someone on a FaceTime call.

The musician, whose real name is Willie Junior Maxwell II, allegedly threatened an unidentified individual last year when he pointed a firearm, telling the person, "Imma kill you and everybody you with" and "I'm gonna kill you" several times.

Since the rapper was released on a $500,000 bond from last year's case, he has to follow some terms and conditions, which he violated after threatening the unnamed individual.

His recent actions fall under possessing a firearm and threatening someone, which is considered a violation of state law.

Last October 28, Fetty Wap was arrested by the FBI and has pleaded not guilty.

He was among the six individuals under the federal case after allegedly attempting to distribute over 100 kilograms of illegal substances to drug dealers.

According to the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of New York, other people involved in the case have either bought or moved the drugs from one point to another for processing and resale.

Illegal substances included crack cocaine, heroin, cocaine, and fentanyl.

His lawyer, Navarro Gray, issued a statement after he was arrested last year, saying they're praying that everything was all a "big misunderstanding."

As seen on court documents, a judge approved a bond application, leading the rapper to be released on a whopping $500,000 bond.

He was allowed to do professional tours again, although he needed to have approval first.

Fetty Wap was charged with "conspiracy to distribute and possess controlled substances." The other five were charged with the same thing, except they faced an additional charge of "using firearms in connection with drug trafficking."

The musician seemed to be pretty active in the music industry as his most recent music release was "Mona Lisa" back in May.
