LOS ANGELES, Calif. --

Tracy Morgan is not known for holding back – and the “30 Rock” star lets loose on two of his former fellow “Saturday Night Live” cast members, Chris Kattan and Cheri Oteri, in his upcoming book, “I Am the New Black.”

“I can remember being on ‘Saturday Night Live’ and being…feeling like I was on the bottom of the totem pole,” Tracy said in an audio clip posted on Gawker’s Defamer. “I could remember when people like Chris Kattan and Cheri Oteri would probably look down upon me. I could remember those two, especially those two, people treating me like I was the invisible guy. Now look where they at. Cheri Oteri, she can’t even get arrested. Where’s Chris Kattan now?”

Tracy went on to criticize the current state of Chris and Cheri’s careers.

“They’re never gonna host ‘Saturday Night Live.’ And that’s not even mean, but that’s what happened to me over there. They never treated me well,” he continued in the audio clip.

But Tracy’s “SNL” days weren’t only filled with alleged haters.

“There were people that treated me beautifully, like Will Ferrell and Colin Quinn and Molly Shannon. I love them,” Tracy said. “But Cheri Oteri and Chris Kattan, I never cared for them either. F*** ‘em.”

Tracy’s “I Am the New Black” hits bookstores shelves on October 20 and “30 Rock” returns to NBC on Thursday.
