S2 Ep 253Loon EXPOSES the UGLY Reason Gucci Mane WILL Testify on Pooh Shiesty & Why They Robbed Him FULL- Episode

Loon explains why Gucci Mane will testify in the Pooh Shiesty and Big30 case, why Gucci was allegedly robbed, and why this 1017 fallout was already headed somewhere ugly. Main description Loon takes the Pooh Shiesty and Big30 story past the obvious headline and into the part people are really going to react to: why Gucci Mane will testify. Publicly, the case is already major. Federal prosecutors say the head of 1017 Records was allegedly forced at gunpoint to sign a release during a January 2026 Dallas studio meeting that was supposed to be about Pooh Shiesty’s contract, and Reuters and AP both report Big30 is among the charged defendants. But Loon’s real point is that this did not start in Dallas. He ties it back to Big Scarr, hurt that never got cleaned up, what he calls Gucci Mane’s poor relationship management, and the bigger mindset problem: fame and money didn’t change Pooh Shiesty’s instincts, so a boardroom problem still got handled like the block. That’s why this video is about more than charges — it’s about why it got that far in the first place. This solo is built around the real headline: Gucci Mane may now have to testify in the Pooh Shiesty and Big30 case. Loon says the forced release, Big Scarr fallout, 1017 hurt and bad relationship management all helped create that outcome — and that this was never just business.    0:00 - The Federal Case Against Pooh Shiesty and Big30 5:42 - Why Loon Says Gucci Mane WILL Testify 11:26 - The Alleged Release That Changed Everything 17:08 - Why They Robbed Gucci 22:41 - Big Scarr and the Old 1017 Wound 28:19 - The Funeral Fallout and What It Did to the Relationship 34:07 - Gucci Mane’s Relationship Management Problem 39:56 - A Boardroom Problem Handled Like the Block 45:38 - Why Loon Calls It a Fumble 51:14 - Why Hurt Men Go All the Way About Money 57:02 - Why 1017 Was Already Broken 1:03:21 - The Mindset Lesson for the Youngsters  #guccimane #poohshiesty #big30 #BigScarr #1017 #Loon #ItsUpTherePodcast #RapNews #HipHopCommentary #GucciWillTestify Join Our Its Up There Podcast Clip Channel now https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEh6Wk40kcNcMJ4t_jtmluw Discord https://discord.gg/GJKXMWQS For all exclusive interviews & more content not here click here https://www.patreon.com/itsuptherepodcast 🚨Unreleased Interviews https://www.patreon.com/itsuptherepodcast 🦺All Merch Options teespring.com/its-up-there-podcast-merch 🎧LISTEN ON SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/4Jheeb8FxYVDRo8khyrz36?si=e339dD2JRte2MYX2Uon3BQ 👀 SUBSCRIBE HERE:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCl_GorAVekpEVDlk1Yc8giw 👂 LISTEN ON APPLE PODCASTS: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/its-up-there-podcast/id1317524092?uo=4 👣FOLLOW ITS UP THERE PODCAST HOST : INSTAGRAM | fogfo_looney TIKTOK | https://www.tiktok.com/@fogfo_looney PATREON| https://www.patreon.com/itsuptherepodcast SUBSCRIBE TO Youtube Channel ➡️ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCl_GorAVekpEVDlk1Yc8giw WATCH MORE ➡️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JwNIuOcAtoo&list=PLnwwxLxHiDWayq4HPgNYUtsAGvqe3liOOSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S2 Ep 252Jay-Z GQ Interview MISTAKENLY EXPOSED How He Really Looks at Drake!! | FULL EPISODE

Jay-Z’s GQ interview is already moving through the algorithm after he spoke on Kendrick Lamar, Drake, the Super Bowl, battle rap, and the culture — but this episode goes way deeper than one quote or one headline. In this episode of It’s Up There Podcast, Loon breaks down Jay-Z’s GQ interview from multiple angles: what it means when powerful men finally speak, why those conversations matter to hustlers and builders, how the culture gets shaped when information is held back, and why some parts of Jay’s framing on Drake, Kendrick, “Not Like Us,” and the Super Bowl hit different once you really listen to them. This episode also gets into Jay-Z’s bigger messaging around playing defense versus getting back on offense, how envy tries to “spit in your food,” why anger can poison your path, and what it means to stay focused while people try to disrupt how you eat. From there, Loon pushes into the cultural side of it: why interviews like this should do more than trend, why major figures should speak more directly to the hustlers, how silence creates room for charlatans, and why information about business, leverage, and mindset can change lives when it’s actually passed down instead of hidden behind status. And yes, the episode deals directly with the hottest part of the conversation too: Jay-Z’s comments on battling, Kendrick’s Super Bowl moment, “Not Like Us,” and the Drake angle. Loon separates Kendrick deserving the opportunity from the question of what was allowed to happen on that stage, and whether Jay-Z’s wording, tone, and framing revealed more than he intended about how he really views Drake. Topics include: Jay-Z’s GQ interview reaction, Kendrick Lamar and the Super Bowl, Drake and the “Not Like Us” conversation, battle rap and whether the culture still protects it, offense vs defense, anger and envy in the game, why major interviews matter to hustlers, hidden business game in public conversations, podcast deal tricks, and why silence at the top can leave the next generation developing in the dark. Watch the full episode and let me know in the comments whether Jay-Z really stayed neutral — or whether the GQ interview quietly told a different story. 0:00 Opening — Why This Jay-Z Interview Matters 2:30 Jay-Z Speaks on Kendrick Lamar & Super Bowl 7:15 “Not Like Us” & The Cultural Impact 13:40 Drake Mention — Where the Tone Shifts 20:10 Was Jay-Z Really Neutral? 27:45 Battle Rap, Culture & Main Stage Debate 35:20 Offense vs Defense — Jay-Z’s Message 43:10 Envy, Anger & Disruption in the Game 51:30 Why These Interviews Matter for Hustlers 1:00:00 Final Breakdown — What Was Really Said Join Our Its Up There Podcast Clip Channel now https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEh6Wk40kcNcMJ4t_jtmluw Discord https://discord.gg/GJKXMWQS For all exclusive interviews & more content not here click here https://www.patreon.com/itsuptherepodcast 🚨Unreleased Interviews https://www.patreon.com/itsuptherepodcast 🦺All Merch Options teespring.com/its-up-there-podcast-merch 🎧LISTEN ON SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/4Jheeb8FxYVDRo8khyrz36?si=e339dD2JRte2MYX2Uon3BQ 👀 SUBSCRIBE HERE:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCl_GorAVekpEVDlk1Yc8giw 👂 LISTEN ON APPLE PODCASTS: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/its-up-there-podcast/id1317524092?uo=4 👣FOLLOW ITS UP THERE PODCAST HOST : INSTAGRAM | fogfo_looney TIKTOK | https://www.tiktok.com/@fogfo_looney PATREON| https://www.patreon.com/itsuptherepodcast SUBSCRIBE TO Youtube Channel ➡️ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCl_GorAVekpEVDlk1Yc8giw WATCH MORE ➡️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JwNIuOcAtoo&list=PLnwwxLxHiDWayq4HPgNYUtsAGvqe3liOOSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tracy T Interview Part 2 on It’s Up There Podcast with Loon addresses Kash Doll’s Atlanta home invasion, the YSL plea deal controversy surrounding Gunna and Young Thug, and ongoing media politics involving DJ Akademiks and Charlamagne tha God on this episode of It’s Up There Podcast. This conversation connects to the public Breakfast Club discussion about the Atlanta home invasion where shots were fired and luxury items, including Birkin bags, were allegedly targeted — adding broader context to what happened and how narratives spread. From there, the episode pivots into the ongoing “Did Gunna snitch?” debate tied to the YSL RICO case, plea optics, the “YSL is a gang and it must end” statement, and how fans interpret loyalty versus legal survival. Tracy speaks on talking to Gunna directly and how industry perception differs from street code. The discussion then expands into hip hop media politics — how DJ Akademiks’ coverage of major events, including Takeoff’s death, shifted narratives, how alliances between platforms matter, and how behind-the-scenes industry relationships can quietly influence visibility. Additional topics include: • Industry gatekeeping and blackball allegations • Kash Doll’s Birkin bag targeting and home security concerns • YSL plea language vs snitching definitions • Fan loyalty vs business survival • Shade Room relationship culture • PTSD after violence • Strategy vs emotion in hip hop 00:00 Tracy T Interview Part 2 08:40 Kash Doll Atlanta Home Invasion 18:10 Birkin Bag Targeting Discussion 26:00 Did Gunna Snitch?
