Gym security footage, acquired by TMZ, suggests the men may have plotted to attack the rapper - as one is seen letting the other inside the facility moments before the beating.

In the footage, a person inside the South Florida LA Fitness is seen using his phone before approaching a door and letting another person inside.

The men approach the front desk receptionist who they briefly converse before they proceed directly toward the bathroom where the violent attack took place.

Video of the attack itself was leaked online late Tuesday evening and showed the assult on the rapper who was shown bloody and blue with significant injuries.

In the new video, a man who looks to be bald is seen gazing out the gym's front windows as the receptionist has a conversation with a customer.

The man glances around, looking to be waiting for someone, and then opens the door and hangs up the phone as he sees the person arriving.

The first unnamed attacker wears black from head to toe and has a huge beard.

The other man, whom he invites inside the Palm Beach LA Fitness, is dressed in a black tee shirt and black shorts, and he has a huge chain around his neck.

The first man signals to the receptionist to go to the bathroom as they pass the front desk.

The woman does not intervene since she is preoccupied with another conversation.

The first man appears to turn his head around and smile at the front desk employee and the second man at one point as they are hurrying to the restroom.

Another inside-the-gym video shows the men picking up a third alleged attacker who is similarly fully covered in black clothing.

The group passes a man who glances up from his phone and turns to face the group of menacing-looking people as they move into the restroom.

The attack's video reveals that Tekashi 6ix9ine was humiliated in front of other gym patrons at the LA Fitness last night after being beaten "to a pulp."

His attackers afterward boasted about the assault on social media.

They described him as a "rat" who wouldn't be accepted in their "hood" in internet videos.

While kicking and beating him, one could be heard saying to another: 'Take a picture, take a picture - I am going to be famous now.'

However, one of the alleged attacker’s images started circulating on social media @bullet_guzman and he quickly attempted to distance himself from the crime “For the record I was working all day and have nothing to do with 69. The dude is white with no tattoos, the internet is sad. I never seen so much rat police shit in my life.”
