ITS UP THERE PODCAST W/LOONEY

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.

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.

GloRilla is trending after her sister went public on TMZ, claiming the rapper hasn’t taken care of the family and saying their mother is still working at FedEx.

In this solo episode, Loon breaks down exactly what was said, why taking family issues to the internet changes everything, and how situations like this play out when success meets expectations. This isn’t gossip — it’s a real conversation about family dynamics, access to outcomes, public pressure, and why money creates tension even when people believe it should fix everything. Loon also explains why viral family disputes hit harder than industry beef, how fame creates illusions about wealth, and why going public often closes doors that can’t be reopened. 🎙 It’s Up There Podcast 📍 Solo Culture Commentary 🔥 Viral situation explained with real context 👉 Watch the full episode of It’s Up There Podcast 👉 Share this episode and join the conversation 👉 Listen on Black Effect or wherever you get podcasts Follow & support the platform: ▶️ Patreon: https://patreon.com/ItsUpTherePodcast ▶️ Discord: https://discord.gg/3AwsHfDcJB ▶️ Instagram: @ItsUpTherePodcast #ItsUpTherePodcast #glorilla #GloRillaSister #ItsUpTherePodcast #Loon #HipHopCulture #RapNews #BlackEffect #CelebrityNews #ViralMoment #FamilyDrama #CultureCommentary (Add timestamps once uploaded — this structure works) 00:00 – Why the GloRilla situation went viral 05:30 – What her sister actually said on TMZ 12:40 – Family expectations vs reality 21:00 – Money, fame, and entitlement 33:00 – Why going public changes everythingSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Black Effect Presents... It's Up There with Looney! Loon breaks down the Corey Holcomb vs Anton Daniels situation and explains why the internet’s “stand on it” culture creates traps for men with reputations. What starts as “disrespect” turns into a bigger conversation about masculinity, restraint, public image, and why corporate spaces tolerate certain energy from some people — but punish it from others. This episode isn’t just about the argument — it’s about the expectations placed on Black men to perform toughness on demand, and how words, ego, and audience pressure can push situations into the wrong lane.

In this solo episode of It’s Up There Podcast, Loon breaks down the real conversation behind Fivio Foreign’s appearance on DJ Akademiks, the fallout involving 21 Savage, and the growing debate around the phrase “F the Streets.” What starts as a viral moment turns into a much bigger discussion about power, perception, ownership, and regional tension in hip-hop. Loon reacts to Fivio Foreign questioning the value of Southern artists and blog coverage, explains why so many rappers chase posts instead of profit, and unpacks how platforms like Akademiks shape narratives without paying artists for their IP. He also addresses the South vs North dynamic, why Atlanta continues to be the industry’s backbone, and how fame often gets mistaken for leverage. This episode also explores:• Why being posted on blogs doesn’t translate to music sales• The confusion between “street identity” and grown-man business• How artists give away power chasing clout• Why silence gets mistaken for weakness• Nipsey Hussle’s legacy vs today’s “street” conversations• Why the South doesn’t need validation to run the game This isn’t a defense of anyone — it’s a breakdown of the system, the incentives, and the misunderstanding driving these viral moments. If you’re looking for real perspective on Akademiks, Fivio Foreign, 21 Savage, Atlanta, hip-hop economics, blog culture, street narratives, and ownership, this episode puts everything into context. TOPICS DISCUSSED • Fivio Foreign on DJ Akademiks• 21 Savage and the “F the Streets” conversation• South vs North tension in hip-hop• Atlanta’s role in controlling music culture• Blog clout vs real money• Why artists beg for posts• IP, leverage, and ownership• Street talk vs business reality• Nipsey Hussle and elevation past the streets WATCH / LISTEN 🎧 Full episodes available on Black Effect and all major podcast platforms📺 Subscribe for more solo breakdowns and interviews💬 Join the conversation in the comments FOLLOW & SUPPORT Patreon: https://patreon.com/ItsUpTherePodcastDiscord: https://discord.gg/3AwsHfDcJB #ItsUpTherePodcast #Loon #FivioForeign #Akademiks #21Savage #FTheStreets #SouthVsNorth #HipHopCulture #Atlanta #BlogCulture #MusicIndustry #Ownership #StreetTalk #RapCommentarySee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Big Loon breaks down the Cardi B, Offset, and Stefon Diggs situation after Cardi goes on Spaces addressing fan backlash, “revenge baby” claims, tour stress, and public pressure following her breakup with Offset. This episode explores why embarrassment ends relationships faster than cheating, how emotional loyalty overrides business logic, and why public relationships collapse once the internet feels entitled to the details. Loon also examines Offset’s post-divorce behavior, including allegations involving Selena Powell, money issues, gambling talk, and why men oversharing in emotional moments always backfires. The conversation then shifts to hip-hop legacy and respect as Jim Jones, Cam’ron, and Dame Dash resurface old tension after a leaked fight clip, raising bigger questions about ego, brotherhood, money, and aging in public. This is not gossip — it’s a culture breakdown on relationships, power, masculinity, and discipline. 🎧 Audio episodes drop weekly 💬 Join the community on Patreon 📺 Full conversations only on It’s Up There Podcast FULL TIMESTAMPS (CLEAN + CLICKABLE) 00:00 – Intro & why this is a real show, not clips 01:40 – Cardi B, Offset, Stefon Diggs & relationship pressure 03:30 – Cardi B on Spaces responding to fans & rumors 06:55 – “Leave me alone” – tour stress, pregnancy & backlash 08:30 – Why embarrassment ends relationships faster than cheating 11:45 – “I hate men” moment & why that hurts business 14:00 – Men failing to protect a woman’s mindset 16:00 – Cardi responds to “revenge baby” narrative 18:40 – Divorce leverage, court optics & emotional decisions 21:30 – Offset, money talk & why business teams push settlements 24:10 – Why men cheat & avoid honest conversations 28:40 – Selena Powell exposes Offset (alleged) 33:30 – Why men talk too much & get burned 36:50 – Jim Jones vs Cam’ron tension explained 40:30 – Dame Dash fight clip resurfaces 45:20 – Respect, ego & aging in hip-hop 52:30 – Final thoughts on discipline & silence 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.

Glasses Malone pulls up to It’s Up There Podcast with Big Loon for a sharp, direct conversation about media influence, cultural standards, and where lines in hip-hop media actually exist. The episode opens with a breakdown of DJ Akademiks vs Adin Ross, questioning why some platforms face heavy scrutiny while others move with far less resistance (00:01:25). Loon presses the No Jumper / Adam22 angle and digs into where “content” stops being conversation and starts becoming something else entirely (00:02:10). From there, the discussion pivots to the Drake vs Kendrick fallout. Loon and Glasses unpack the idea of Drake taking a legal route, Kendrick’s quiet weight in the culture, and what happens when rap conflicts move outside the booth and into real-world systems (00:03:12). They also address the UMG narrative — whether labels shape outcomes behind the scenes — and why Glasses pushes back on that idea (00:11:37). Glasses then zooms out on his own journey — coming up in Watts and Compton, being cultivated through Cash Money and Birdman, and why much of today’s podcast space feels performative rather than grounded (00:12:56). The episode closes by returning to the culture-line debate: public call-outs, Wack 100 mentions, and why Loon argues that not everything belongs online when real reputations and long-term outcomes are involved (00:45:05). This isn’t a clip chase. It’s a real conversation about media standards, responsibility, and how culture navigates influence in the digital age. 🔗 WATCH & CONNECT 📺 Subscribe to It’s Up There Podcast (Main Channel) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCl_GorAVekpEVDlk1Yc8giw 🎬 Its Up There Podcast – Clips Channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEh6Wk40kcNcMJ4t_jtmluw 🎧 Listen on Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/4Jheeb8FxYVDRo8khyrz36 🎧 Listen on Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/its-up-there-podcast/id1317524092 🔥 Exclusive & Unreleased Interviews (Patreon) https://www.patreon.com/itsuptherepodcast 💬 Join the Discord https://discord.gg/GJKXMWQS 🧢 Merch https://teespring.com/its-up-there-podcast-merch 👣 FOLLOW BIG LOON Instagram: @fogfo_looney TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@fogfo_looney Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/itsuptherepodcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dr Umar In Hour 3 Talks Diddy 50 cent , Remy Ma & Papoose , Kaicenat & more. Dr. Umar Johnson joins It’s Up There for a wide-ranging conversation that starts with the backlash around Kai Cenat’s “Streamer University,” then expands into bigger questions about power, values, identity, and what Black influence should actually build. We talk about why Kai Cenat got attacked for empowering his network, Dr. Umar’s breakdown of equity vs equality, and why he believes Black success gets tested the moment it becomes organized. From there, the conversation touches Haiti and the importance of building real institutions, the public image realities of celebrity relationships, and even a deeper discussion about identity formation and early exposure. We also get into the culture’s “quick-fix” era — including talk around Adderall, Ozempic, discipline vs shortcuts — and a wild moment referencing the Diddy trial conversation about prescription labels and how money can move behind the scenes. Topics include: • Kai Cenat “Streamer University” backlash + serving your people first • Equity vs equality explained (why “equal” isn’t always fair) • Haiti, legacy, and building institutions (schools/hospitals/universities) • Remy Ma / Papoose + public image & relationships • Identity formation, early exposure, and values in childhood • Adderall/Ozempic, discipline vs shortcuts, and collateral damage • Diddy “Frank Black” prescription label conversation Patreon: https://patreon.com/ItsUpTherePodcast Discord: https://discord.gg/3AwsHfDcJB #ItsUpTherePodcast #DrUmarJohnson #KaiCenat 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 0:00 - Introduction to Part 3 Discussion 1:30 - Meeting Kai Cenat and amp crew impressions 3:15 - Analysis of Streaming University concept and its potential 5:45 - White backlash against Kai's black-focused initiatives 7:20 - Equity vs. Equality in streaming industry 9:30 - Strategic advice for Kai Cenat on global perspective 11:45 - The importance of building institutions in Haiti 14:00 - Discussion on sponsorships and loyalty conflicts 16:15 - Young streamers' responsibility to community 18:30 - Black Love discussion - Papoose and Remy Ma situation 21:00 - Public breakups impact on black community narrative 22:45 - LGBT community and child exposure concerns 25:30 - Identity formation and early childhood development 27:15 - Social learning theory and behavioral modeling 29:00 - Cultural values and heterosexual relationships 31:20 - Money vs. Culture - idol worship discussion 33:45 - The courage to stand for your people 35:30 - Building institutions vs. entertainment only 37:15 - FDMG Academy donation information 38:45 - Final thoughts and contact information 40:00 - Closing remarks - "Black Queens Forever, Snow Bunnies Never" 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.

Chico Bean REACTS To Diddy Netflix Doc, Cassie Lawsuit, Jay-Z Comments & Trump Pardon Predictions Chico Bean pulls up to It’s Up There Podcast with Loon and the convo goes from Diddy’s case and Cassie’s settlement to Candace Owens, Epstein, Elvis, Anthony Edwards, Shannon Sharpe, Trump and more. This ain’t just gossip – it’s how power really moves when the cameras turn off. In this episode, Loon and Chico break down what it means to be a man with money, reputation and receipts in 2025. They talk about the Diddy situation, RICO, asset seizures and public humiliation, and why sometimes the goal is to destroy your name even if you beat the case. Then they compare that to how Elvis, R. Kelly, Harvey Weinstein and Jeffrey Epstein were handled, and what that says about race, protection and celebrity justice in America. They get into Cassie’s settlement, women’s choices, men’s responsibility and the price of silence, plus the question nobody wants to answer: Would you take Diddy’s deal – 30 years of power for a public fall? From there, the convo jumps to Candace Owens and “safe” platforms, how politics turns pain into content, and why some people talk loud on TV but don’t want real confrontation. Sports gets pulled in too – Anthony Edwards’ situation, Shannon Sharpe, women’s bodies, abortion, child support and the court of public opinion. This one isn’t just about one headline. It’s Diddy, Cassie, Candace Owens, Epstein, Elvis, Anthony Edwards, Shannon Sharpe, Trump, Jay-Z, Tyler Perry and more – all tied into one question: Who gets protected, who gets dragged, who gets paid and who gets played when sex, money, fame and the internet mix together? 🔹 LOCK IN WITH THE SHOW 👍🏽 Like the video 💬 Drop a comment & join the conversation 📌 Share this episode with somebody who loves real conversation 🚨 Make sure you’re subscribed so you don’t miss what’s next 🔹 JOIN THE LOONIVERSE 🎧 Full audio & early episodes on Patreon: https://patreon.com/ItsUpTherePodcast 💬 Join the Discord community: https://discord.gg/3AwsHfDcJB ▶️ Binge past episodes & interviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnwwxLxHiDWYLCXvb81w69QAfr6cc1Y3N 🔹 FOLLOW IT’S UP THERE PODCAST Follow Loon & It’s Up There Podcast on: Instagram • TikTok • Facebook • X • Snapchat (Search: ItsUpTherePodcast) #chicobean #ItsUpTherePodcast #Loon #Diddy #Cassie #CandaceOwens #Epstein #Elvis #AnthonyEdwards #ShannonSharpe #Trump #HipHopPodcast #CultureTalk #BlackMedia 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 0:00 - Intro & Opening Thoughts 2:45 - Self-Love Philosophy: "Be More Excited to See Yourself Than Anyone Else" 5:30 - Walking Through Depression and Mental Health Struggles 8:15 - Childhood Stories: Mother Wanda and Learning Responsibility Early 12:20 - Therapy Sessions: What the Little Boy Wanted to Do 15:45 - Growing Up Without a Father and Taking Care of Family 18:30 - Being "Externally Humble" Despite Inner Confidence 21:10 - The Reality of Success: Empty Houses and Unused Cars 24:40 - Donating Clothes and Being Strategic About Giving Back 27:15 - Teaching Young People About Street Awareness 30:20 - AD BREAK - PrizePicks Sponsorship 32:45 - The Diddy Situation: Legal Analysis and Perspective 36:30 - Cassie Testimony and Relationship Dynamics 40:15 - Power, Corruption and Celebrity Culture 43:50 - Parenting Philosophy: Teaching His Daughter About Manipulation 47:20 - The Difference Between Men and Women Facing Consequences 50:35 - Conspiracy Theory: Would You Take "The Devil's Deal"? 54:10 - Black Men vs. Other Celebrities: Double Standards in America 57:25 - R.

Wack 100 sits with Loon to address rumors about Game’s house loss, Blueface management status, Big U paperwork allegations, Tsu Surf snitch questions, and the rising Diddy controversy. Wack 100 sits down with Loon for an extended conversation covering several topics that have been circulating online in recent months. The discussion moves through the questions surrounding Game’s house situation, the narrative that Wack played a role in the loss of the property, and the ongoing conversation about whether Game and Wack are still working together. The episode also touches on the continual speculation around Blueface and Wack’s involvement in his career, as Wack explains where things actually stand and addresses the assumptions that come with managing young artists in the public eye. Loon brings forward the debates connected to Big U, including the “police content” label and the paperwork conversations that have been happening on social media. Wack responds to the claims and breaks down the origins of the narratives. The conversation also reaches the topic of Tsu Surf and the paperwork discussions surrounding his case, giving space to clarify the story and the confusion created online. Toward the end of the episode, Loon and Wack speak about the current climate around Diddy, how the news cycle has affected the culture, and the way major stories shape the industry.

Loon reacts to 50 Cent’s Netflix Diddy documentary Sean Combs: The Reckoning, breaking down the Diddy doc scene by scene, the edit, the missing context, and what it really means for the culture. Loon reacts to 50 Cent’s Netflix Diddy documentary Sean Combs: The Reckoning, breaking down the Diddy doc scene by scene, the edit, the missing context, and what it really means for the culture. This ain’t just “yo that was crazy” commentary — it’s a slow walk through how Netflix told this story, why it feels like two different documentaries smashed into one, and how 50 Cent’s name ended up carrying weight for a narrative he didn’t fully control. Loon talks about the pre-arrest footage, the “illegal tapes” conversation, the jurors, the Cassie part, the way the abuse is framed, and the weird spots where the doc backs off instead of really landing the plane. From there he zooms out: why big platforms love using familiar faces from the culture as shields, how the Diddy doc lines up with the lawsuits and headlines, and why this project might be more of a setup for the next move than a final word. He ties it into the bigger ideas he’s been on — “arrive alive” instead of dying on the climb, old heads acting as defluencers instead of leaders, kids cosplaying depressed and gangsta because that’s what the stories teach them, and what it really costs to make it through all this without ending up bitter, beat up, or broke. If you watched Sean Combs: The Reckoning and walked away confused, this is the breakdown.

Dr Umar Johnson sits with Loon to talk Candace Owens, Deion Sanders, Shedeur Sanders, the Target boycott, Trump’s DEI rollbacks, racist GoFundMe rules and the Times Square Black woman statue in Hour 3. In this clip, Umar breaks down why boycotting Target and running to Costco isn’t Black power if we don’t own anything, how DEI got gutted under Trump, and why directing Black dollars without Black ownership is just “rearranging the plantation.” He walks Loon through Rodney Hinton, Luigi Maloney and the viral white woman who made a million dollars off a racist rant—using those cases to show how GoFundMe will happily fund white violence while shutting down Black causes and even his own school campaign. Umar calls it “digital segregation” in real time, not a glitch in the system. From there they zoom in on symbolism: the casual, unemployed-looking Black woman statue in Times Square. Umar argues that in the richest business district in America, choosing that image to represent Black women—while Black women are the most educated demographic in the country—is not an accident, it’s messaging. They tie in Michael Jackson, Prince, Marvel and Black Panther, then slide into validation culture: white partners, PWIs, suburbs, Benzes and “being chosen” by white institutions as trophies for bruised Black egos. That same validation, Umar says, makes celebrities easy to buy and easy to use against their own people. Trump comes back into the convo as Umar explains how his era made open racism popular again and gave police and institutions a “Trump immunity” energy, while DEI programs quietly rolled back and barely helped Black folks even when they were funded. Later, Loon steers things to Deion Sanders and Shedeur Sanders: HBCUs, Colorado, the NFL draft and how a projected top-end quarterback ended up much lower than expected, costing tens of millions but still being used for clicks, ratings and jersey sales. Umar frames it as a lesson in power: “The league is bigger than any one family.” They wrap with Candace Owens—why Umar feels she’s ducking a real sit-down on a Black platform or at an HBCU, how interracial marriage and “snow bunny” politics fit into her brand, and why conservative sponsors might treat an honest debate with him as too risky for their image. This is executive-level conversation: history, money, sport, media and psychology all in the same hour.

T-Pain Exposes DJ Khaled “Brother” Game, Labels Want Spotify Raise, DEI Money Vanishes for Pods In this solo episode, Loon breaks down why T-Pain’s “nobody is your brother” rant on Shannon Sharpe hit harder than people think, what it really means when DJ Khaled uses “brother” like a promo code, and how the family word gets weaponized to cloak bad business in music and media. From Ace Hood’s seven-figure exit from We The Best to labels quietly pushing Spotify to raise prices while keeping artist splits the same, Loon explains why music is still on a rookie contract, how Netflix vs cable exposed the new “add-on hustle,” and why AI plus streaming turned fans into secret investors. Then he pivots to podcasting: DEI checks drying up, black creators getting cut when the government paperwork changes, the Joe Budden universe, “sous-chefs” getting bravado off someone else’s work, and why pods like Need to Know and Bigger Picture struggled once DEI budgets disappeared. Loon lays out why he refuses pity-party money, how he’s retraining his audience to pay for value, and what it means for the future of It’s Up There Podcast. 00:00 – Intro, holidays & “fish sandwich vs fishing rod” 03:12 – T-Pain on Shannon Sharpe: “Nobody is your brother” 03:53 – DJ Khaled, the “brother” promo code & being used 08:13 – Weaponizing the family word in music & business 10:28 – Roc La Familia, mob names & fake “family” labels 12:35 – T-Pain’s legacy vs putting people on 15:05 – “If they make the sea, I make the sail” – Loon’s method 15:25 – Ace Hood vs DJ Khaled: 7-figure exit from We The Best 17:02 – Clip: Ace Hood explains the million-dollar number 20:43 – Connecting T-Pain, Ace Hood & Khaled’s sweet spot 22:11 – Labels push Spotify to raise prices 24:21 – Netflix vs cable: devaluing live TV & changing behavior 27:03 – Add-on hustle: subscriptions as the new cable 27:39 – Artists still hustling like it’s the 80s 29:34 – AI, labels & training models on artist voices 31:13 – Labels renegotiate subscriptions, not artist splits 33:45 – Streaming, secret shareholders & rookie contracts 35:11 – Knife vs pie: who controls splits in music 35:38 – Podcasting leaves its rookie deal 36:55 – Bigger Picture & Need to Know podcast cancellations 38:36 – Clip: DEI money stops and ads dry up 40:33 – Joe Budden universe & sous-chef bravado 43:19 – DEI, pity parties & token black shows 45:10 – Joe Budden, Flip, Surf & chemistry challenges 47:32 – Changing customer behavior vs artists standing still 49:56 – Dark time for pods & Loon’s long game 50:32 – Tease for the future of It’s Up There Podcast T-Pain said “nobody is your brother,” then brought up DJ Khaled by name.

Charleston White returns to It’s Up There Podcast with Loon for Hour 3 to talk Cardi B, Stefon Diggs, Offset, his own lost baby story, the viral HBCU setup, Woody’s hood, NBA YoungBoy, NLE Choppa and more. This is the third hour of the same sit-down. After walking out and coming back, Charleston gets into the stuff the internet argues about but never really breaks down: relationships, status, fatherhood, street loyalty, internet character vs real life, and the cost of going viral the wrong way.

Loon forces specifics: Was Tekashi 6ix9ine really “gangsta” or was it performance? Charleston doubles down that 6ix9ine was active, and Loon demands receipts—where, when, who. They pivot to DJ Akademiks and whether his coverage helped or hurt NBA YoungBoy’s money—brand deals, touring energy, and how one post can tax a bag. Charleston speaks directly on Lil Woody and the “fear” talk, draws a line between being strategic and being scared, and says it on camera. The episode also hits the culture’s pressure points: Young Thug and rap lyrics in court (art vs evidence), Adin Ross access/security, police vs street codes, and whether labels/algorithms profit from pain (drill trauma from Chicago/Jacksonville to the timeline). This is not a clip farm—this is the full confrontation people said would never happen after the walkout. What you’ll hear (no spoilers): • 6ix9ine debate that nearly goes left (definition vs myth) • Ak’s role in YoungBoy coverage and money narratives • Lil Woody addressed directly: stance, fear, and consequences • Thug’s lyrics, prosecutors, and the line between art and confession • Police vs street integrity when cameras are off • Labels, clicks, and who actually profits when violence trends Join the community / support the show • Discord: https://discord.gg/3AwsHfDcJB • Patreon (early drops, longer audio, lives): https://patreon.com/ItsUpTherePodcast Listen everywhere (Black Effect / iHeart) – search It’s Up There Podcast.

Future’s brother Casino raided by FBI/DEA for 21 kilos and $380K—I break down the fentanyl pipeline, press-table math, cartel claims, DJ Akademiks vs NBA YoungBoy’s money, Adin Ross access, Young Thug lyrics in court. The FBI/DEA press conference on Freebandz Casino dropped heavy numbers—21 kilos, $380K in cash, pill presses, counting machines, LV-stamped pills—and the internet ran with it like every headline equals truth. I slow this down. What do the feds say for TV vs what the street math really is? Why do busts get timed near the “motherload” play? And how does that splash back on Future, his family, and ATL politics even when proximity gets read as participation? We track the fentanyl shift—how it replaced heroin, why “pure” claims get thrown around, and who benefits when a crisis becomes a market. Then we move from product talk to people talk: the ecosystem around a star. “Stop counting another man’s money.” Fame ≠ funds. There’s overhead, lawsuits, kids, payrolls, taxes, and a community that wants help without understanding cost. The goal is to feed your people without bleeding your brand—gifts, not allowances; build men, not dependents. On media power: I break down DJ Akademiks vs NBA YoungBoy’s bag. Did the coverage help or hurt in real dollars—deals, touring optics, brand risk? That’s not vibes; that’s receipts and risk. On access optics: the Adin Ross conversation isn’t just clout—its security, insurance, and venue politics. When a crowd gets pre-framed as dangerous, are we protecting the artist or creating the exact tension we fear? On the courts: we take Young Thug and the rap-lyrics-as-evidence debate. Where’s the line between art and confession when prosecutors cherry-pick bars for narrative power? Culture wants truth; the court wants convictions. On codes and survival: Internet culture rewards role-playing “street,” but real life has consequences. Police vs street codes isn’t a slogan—it’s a survival decision families live with when cameras are off. Finally, the machine: labels and algorithms that profit from pain—from drill headlines to trending tragedies. Who cashes out, and who pays the bill after the streams clear? This is not a clip farm. It’s a full executive breakdown of headlines, incentives, and the choices men have to make under pressure.

DJ Akademiks, Young Thug, Big Bank, Woody, Charleston White, Adin Ross and Loon all collide in this It’s Up There Podcast episode about clout, integrity and Atlanta culture. DJ Akademiks, Young Thug, Big Bank, Woody, Charleston White, Adin Ross and Loon all collide in this It’s Up There Podcast episode about clout, integrity and Atlanta culture. In this solo breakdown, Loon explains how he and Big Bank were the two platforms Young Thug trusted, how Big Bank let Woody talk about Thug, and why Loon refused to let Charleston White speak on Thug in full character mode. Akademiks then used that contrast to pit Loon and Big Bank against each other, lie on Loon’s name, and keep up his pattern of wrecking rappers and misleading streamers like Adin Ross for content and clout. Loon walks you through the real context behind the viral clips, why he stopped the Thug conversation, and how today’s media profits from opposition takes, police energy and chaos instead of real understanding and loyalty. In this episode, Loon gets into: DJ Akademiks vs Loon vs Big Bank – how Ak used Big Bank’s viral interview with Woody to attack Loon for blocking Thug talk with Charleston White Young Thug’s trust – why Thug sat with Loon and Big Bank when things got dark, and what that means now that his name is being used for clicks Woody vs Charleston White – both don’t care for Thug, but one was allowed to talk and one wasn’t, and why that was a conscious choice Blocking Charleston’s Thug convo – character mode, open cases, the clip ecosystem and why Loon refused a cheap viral moment Akademiks ruining rappers around him – the pattern with rappers he stands next to, and why Loon calls him a wrecking ball Akademiks lying to Adin Ross – fake “industry pull,” promising access he doesn’t have, and dragging streamers into rap fires Clout vs integrity – why the culture rewards the mess and punishes boundaries, and what that costs long term Real ATL loyalty vs WiFi relationships – “you come together, you leave together,” and people who stand on you without being told Media infiltration & police energy – outsiders shaping narratives on the culture with no real codes Why Loon isn’t triggerable – executive-level conversations, staying calm, and still being willing to stand on business when disrespected This episode is about more than one clip. It’s about how the game is being played, who really stands for the culture, and why sometimes the most viral decision is not the right one.

Charleston White and Loon face off in one of the most explosive interviews of 2025 — Charleston White returns to It’s Up There Podcast to debate NBA YoungBoy, Young Thug, and the blurred line between character and accountability in hip hop. What starts as a deep cultural conversation quickly spirals into chaos after Loon bans any Young Thug discussion, leading Charleston to call a detective mid-show and storm off set. From the jump, Loon sets the tone: “This platform documents our culture, but we slow it down long enough to understand why things happen.” Charleston, however, comes in swinging — saying YoungBoy’s fans are “retarded,” that most Black people are “dumb and traumatized,” and that he only plays an “internet character” to shock the world. Loon challenges him on that rhetoric, pointing out how white institutions weaponize language against Black children, sparking one of the most heated back-and-forths you’ll ever see on camera. The argument moves from NBA YoungBoy’s tour and fanbase, to Young Thug’s case, to fatherhood, money, and manhood. Loon stands firm: “We’re not talking about Thug — that’s my little homie.” Charleston refuses to back down, shouting, “Let me call the detective!” before walking off set in frustration. This episode is everything It’s Up There Podcast stands for — honest, uncomfortable, and unfiltered. Loon keeps it grounded in respect and intellect; Charleston pushes every emotional button possible. What unfolds is part debate, part cultural mirror, and fully viral. 🎙️ Watch the full episode to see how it all unraveled when Charleston White clashed with Loon over NBA YoungBoy, called a detective on air, and walked off after being banned from talking about Young Thug. 0:00 - Introduction to Up There Podcast & Context Setting 2:15 - Charleston's Recent Tour & Comedy Updates 3:40 - Discussion About Charleston's Internet Character vs Real Life 5:30 - Charleston Explains His Dolomite-Inspired Persona 7:10 - NBA YoungBoy Concert Incident & Say Cheese Interview Backstory 9:45 - Host Challenges Charleston About "Playing" vs Business 11:20 - First Signs of Tension - Character vs Elite Status Debate 13:30 - Charleston Discusses Working with Children & Real Community Work 15:00 - Commercial Break - Prize Picks Sponsorship 16:45 - Return from Break - Internet Celebrity vs Real Life Fame 18:50 - Heated Exchange About "Tit for Tat" Communication Style 20:15 - Charleston Gets Frustrated About Interview Flow 21:30 - Host Attempts to Reset Conversation Energy 23:10 - Charleston's Comments About NBA YoungBoy Fans Addressed 25:20 - Major Tension Point - Discussion of R-Word Usage 27:00 - Reading Statistics & Research Claims by Charleston 28:45 - Host Pushes Back on Generalizations About Black Children 30:30 - Charleston Defends His Controversial Language 32:15 - Attempt to Discuss Young Thug Situation 33:40 - Charleston Wants to Focus on Crime Victims Instead 35:00 - Host Refuses to Discuss Young Thug Out of Respect 36:20 - Heated Exchange About Past Criminal Records 38:10 - Personal Attacks About Parenting & Prison Time 39:45 - Charleston's Defensive Response About His Past 41:15 - Interview Breaks Down Completely 42:30 - Charleston Expresses Exhaustion with Black Media 43:45 - Final Escalation & Charleston's Decision to Leave 45:00 - Charleston White Walks Out 46:10 - Host's Closing Thoughts & Reflection 👇 Join the movement Patreon: https://patreon.com/ItsUpTherePodcast Discord: https://discord.gg/3AwsHfDcJB Full Episodes Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnwwxLxHiDWYLCXvb81w69QAfr6cc1Y3N #CharlestonWhite #NBAYoungBoy #YoungThug #Loon #ItsUpTherePodcast #HipHopPodcast #PodcastDrama #CultureConversation #BlackEffect #iHeartPodcastJoin 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.

Loon’s solo It’s Up There Podcast episode explores Marshawn Kneeland, mental health and accountability, the Gervonta Davis vs Jake Paul cancellation, and Chauncey Billups gambling allegations in sports. Full description: In this solo installment of The Itinerary, Loon zooms in on a tough truth: success doesn’t shield you from struggle. He opens with the tragic news around Marshawn Kneeland and unpacks how depression can hide in plain sight—even when the world thinks you’re winning. He speaks to fathers, sons, and families about pressure, purpose, and why we have to “lift the vibration” instead of campaigning for pain. From there, Loon breaks down the Gervonta Davis vs. Jake Paul cancellation—what that means for fighters, platforms, and the evolving fight business—and reacts to industry voices weighing in. He then examines the ripple effects of sports betting on integrity, using the Chauncey Billups and Terry Rozier headlines as a launchpad to discuss how gambling, coaching decisions, and player props can collide with the culture of competition. This is premium editorial from the creator’s chair: perspective, data points, and game for anyone trying to build something real in a noisy algorithm.

This is Part 2 of Bloody Jay’s full interview. He explains how he moved with both Young Thug and YFN Lucci before the beef, why he chose Lucci when Atlanta split, how everybody got locked, and what changed after he came home. He breaks down Thug and Lucci cooling the situation, Lil Baby bringing Lucci on stage in Atlanta, and why he Cant stand next to Lucci today even after the “we good” moment. He talks about Fulton County using rap lyrics and music videos like RICO evidence, and how that almost glued his name into other people’s cases. Bloody Jay also calls out the industry. He shows love to Boosie and Kevin Gates for actually showing up in real life, not just posting, and he speaks on how people moved around Young Thug, Gunna, and the politics of paperwork.

Snoop Dogg Flips Off Cash Money + Lil Wayne's NO SHOW Strategy + Juvenile's Opening DISASTER! Cash Money Records Verzuz No Limit + Snoop Dogg IGNORES Cash Money Handshakes + Lil Wayne's NO-SHOW, Cash Money's BIGGEST MISTAKE During the No Limit Verzuz Battle EXPOSED! + Lil Wayne Drake & Nicki Our reaction and breakdown of the epic Cash Money Records vs No Limit Records Verzuz battle that went down at ComplexCon Las Vegas. We analyze every moment from this legendary New Orleans hip hop showdown featuring Juvenile, Master P, Big Tymers, B.G., Mia X, Silkk the Shocker, and the Hot Boyz going head-to-head in one of the most anticipated Verzuz battles ever. In this reaction video, we break down the performances round by round, discussing Juvenile's commanding stage presence as he carried Cash Money through classics like "Slow Motion," "Set It Off," and "400 Degreez" in Lil Wayne's absence. We analyze Mia X's show-stopping performances of "Bout It Bout It II" that had the crowd going crazy and Master P's veteran moves with hits like "Make Em Say Ughh" and "Ice Cream Man." The battle showcased southern rap legends delivering iconic tracks that defined 90s and early 2000s hip hop culture. We discuss the strategic choices both sides made, from Cash Money opening with Juvenile to No Limit's deep catalog showcase. Our analysis covers the crowd reactions, stage presence, and which performances hit different during the live battle. We break down memorable moments like B.G.'s "Bling Bling" performance, Big Tymers bringing "Still Fly" energy, and how both labels represented New Orleans hip hop at its finest. The Verzuz battle proved why Cash Money Records and No Limit Records remain two of the most influential labels in hip hop history, with Master P and Birdman's legacies on full display through their artists' performances. #VerzuzReaction #CashMoneyVsNoLimit #NewOrleansHipHop #SouthernRap #Juvenile #MasterP #BigTymers #MiaX #VerzuzBattle #HipHopReaction #CashMoneyRecords #NoLimitRecords #90sHipHop #ComplexCon #HipHopHistory 0:00 - Intro 2:30 - Snoop Dogg's Performance Analysis 5:15 - The Energy & Stage Presence Breakdown 8:45 - Versus Battle Strategy Discussion 12:20 - Cash Money's First Opportunity Analysis 15:30 - Lil Wayne's Absence Impact 18:45 - Turk's Role & Missing Star Power 22:10 - Juvenile's Strategic Positioning 25:35 - The Wayne Effect Discussion 28:50 - Cash Money's Multiplication Philosophy 32:15 - NBA YoungBoy & New Generation 35:40 - Pete's YN Energy Commentary 39:20 - Tour Circuit & Apple Music Discussion 42:55 - Silk's South Representation 46:30 - Business Model Comparisons 50:15 - Hip Hop Culture & Legacy Talk 53:45 - Southern Rap Impact Analysis 57:20 - Record Label Strategies 60:30 - Final Thoughts & Wrap-Up 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.

Ace Hood Responds to DJ Khaled On The Breakfast Club + Future Vs T-Pain + Fake Watch BET Moment , Ace Hood pulls up to It’s Up There Podcast for a rare, executive-level convo on faith, reinvention, and the business behind the hits—“Bugatti,” “Hustle Hard,” “Body 2 Body,” “Ride,” “Cash Flow.” Loon and Ace break down label politics, independence vs. majors, the million-dollar exit talk, why some features never clear, radio strategy, Miami/Broward support, and how artists get trapped paying $10–25k/month to “teams” that don’t produce. They also unpack the T-Pain / Future / Auto-Tune discourse around the “Bugatti” era, the Breakfast Club clip with DJ Khaled, and Ace’s perspective on keeping God first when the industry turns weird. Plus: the infamous Rolex bezel moment (and why independent verification matters), building a real PR/marketing stack as an indie, and how to choose brand deals that actually fit your identity. If you’re an artist, podcaster, or entrepreneur, this episode is a blueprint: ownership, accountability, real relationships with radio & DJs, outsourcing the right work (PR, social, distro), and knowing exactly what you want before you walk into a label meeting. We talk Joe Budden, Chris Brown, Trey Songz, Mike Will, Watch Busters, playlist leverage, why some records stall without infrastructure, and how to protect your spirit—and your business—through all of it. #ItsUpTherePodcast #AceHood #Loon #future #djkhaled — Tap in with the movement • Patreon (early access, longer audio, lives, community perks): https://patreon.com/ItsUpTherePodcast • Discord (community, ideas, watch parties): https://discord.gg/3AwsHfDcJB • Full playlist of past episodes: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnwwxLxHiDWYLCXvb81w69QAfr6cc1Y3N If this episode gave you game, drop a comment, share it with someone who needs it, and make sure you’re subscribed—most viewers watch without subscribing and it hurts what we’re building.

Full description: Chico breaks down getting pulled in by the IRS and how he turned the pressure into paper trail power—flipping taxes into funding banks respect. We talk the climb from a 506 credit score to 800, living cheap on purpose, and the simple plays that build generational wealth, including Wallo’s insurance game and why estate planning matters. Then we pivot to the art: how a safe space for Black men beats click chasing, why interview chemistry travels without gossip, and the night in Vegas with T-Pain that became a three hour lobby conversation feeding grief, focus, and creativity. We also stack the Breakfast Club standard against our own clips, why we hit 800K without hot topics, and how comfort on camera leads to real-life receipts.

DJ Akademiks crowns NBA YoungBoy “King of Rap” after Atlanta show—Loon reacts. YB vs Durk & Von history, “I Hate YoungBoy” live at State Farm, media framing, touring leverage, Gilbert Arenas x Underdog, Skip Bayless, Aiden Ross & Thug. n this executive-level breakdown, I salute NBA YoungBoy’s first real touring run while pushing back on how media frames his brand. Calling YB the “King of Rap” might trend—but the way it’s framed can paint targets and stir pots that don’t need stirring, especially when you’re moving city to city trying to run a clean rollout. We talk why celebrating the win ≠ escalating old narratives, and why amplifying ring-kissing rhetoric or “he having it his way” talk can misalign with the mission to take over the game. From Atlanta’s energy around “I Hate YoungBoy” to the constant comparisons with Durk/Von history, I explain why a State Farm Arena performance—with real security protocols and corporate risk teams—isn’t the same thing as Gucci performing “Truth” in a club. Context matters when the stakes include safety, sponsors, and a multi-city tour. We also get into ownership vs. “infrastructure”: Gilbert Arenas revealing Underdog Fantasy owns 50% of his show, schedule pressures, and what a Skip Bayless hire signals about who really calls the plays when equity is on the table. If you don’t control the levers, you are the lever. Plus, I speak on streamers pulling artists into headlines for content—why calling Thug on stream about YB is bad etiquette and how online culture can block real brotherhood moments. Protect the relationships, not the algorithm. What you’ll hear me press:• Celebrate YB’s tour without feeding beef cycles or “target” narratives. • Atlanta show ≠ green light for chaos—learn the difference between showmanship, security, and street mythology. • Ownership vs. optics: the cost of giving up 50% for “infrastructure.” • Don’t “pop it from the house”—if you’re going to pop it, stand on it.

In this powerful episode, we dive deep into the complex realities facing the black community today through the lens of recent high-profile federal cases. Our host provides unfiltered analysis of Diddy's 50-month sentence and its broader implications, while examining Lil Durk's ongoing federal challenges including recent contraband charges that could impact his case significantly. Episode Summary This episode offers raw insights into federal justice, street mentality, and the importance of emotional intelligence for black men in positions of power. We explore how federal cases are being handled differently in today's climate, the significance of risk assessment in high-stakes situations, and the delicate balance between authentic expression and public perception through celebrity relationships. The discussion emphasizes the critical need for emotional stability and intelligence as foundational elements for success and survival. Key Insights Diddy's 50-month sentence represents a better outcome than initially expected, with federal prosecutors failing to secure everything they pursued. Lil Durk's case complexity increases with contraband charges including cell phone possession and destruction of evidence (Apple Watch). Federal attention to high-profile cases has intensified following recent losses, leading to more aggressive prosecution strategies. Emotional intelligence and stability are essential qualities for black men, especially those in positions of power and influence. Risk assessment and calculating "is the juice worth the squeeze" is crucial before making any significant moves or decisions. The importance of recognizing universal signs and indicators that may influence decision-making outcomes. Commentary on public relationships and the balance between authentic expression and strategic communication in celebrity marriages. Street mentality principles including surveillance, threat assessment, and understanding exit strategies in any environment. The concept that rushing decisions can lead to operational failures and unwanted exposure of sensitive situations. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Young Thug returns for Part 2 of his official rollout interview on *It’s Up There Podcast*. This episode gets even deeper — Thug opens up about the YFN Lucci beef being squashed and the backlash he’s faced from the streets and industry for making peace. He also breaks down his relationships with Lil Durk, NBA YoungBoy, Lil Baby, and Drake, plus speaks on betrayal, loyalty, and how the rap game changes once you’re isolated by legal battles. Thug doesn’t shy away from the tough parts: he talks about leaked jail calls, extortion behind bars, and the emotional toll of being away from his family. He reflects on trust, the silent treatment from artists he once showed love to, and what it really feels like when the industry turns its back. At the same time, he shows respect to those he values, including YoungBoy, Baby, and Drake, while revealing his plans to move into more wholesome, uplifting music as part of his healing journey.

Young Thug finally speaks out. In this raw and unfiltered interview, Thug reveals new details about being extorted over leaked jail calls, makes it clear he will never forgive Gunna, and addresses the rumors that his industry features were being pulled during the YSL trial. Young Thug finally speaks out after years of silence. In this explosive conversation on It’s Up There Podcast, Thug details how he was extorted over leaked jail calls, why he will never forgive Gunna, and clears the air on the rumors about his industry features being pulled during the YSL trial. For the first time, Thug lays out what really happened behind the walls — from paying money to stop private calls from leaking, to realizing people close to him were part of the betrayal. He breaks down how extortion works inside the system, the trauma of hearing his own conversations sold to the world, and why this betrayal feels different than anything he’s faced before. The Gunna question is answered directly. Thug admits there will never be reconciliation, even though he still has love. He explains what loyalty really means to him, why trust is forever broken, and how brotherhood changes once it’s mixed with business. The line that shook the culture — “I want you to eat, just not at my table” — is explained in full context here. The conversation also touches on industry politics. Thug responds to claims that rappers pulled features when the case hit. He sets the record straight about who stood by him — mentioning Drake, 21 Savage, Pluto (Future), Cash, and more — and why the narrative that he was abandoned doesn’t match reality. This episode is about more than music. It’s about survival, betrayal, and what it costs to be one of the most influential voices of this generation. Young Thug opens up about losing $50 million while in jail, spending $14 million on lawyers, and the paranoia that follows betrayal. He also dives into his controversial album cover, why he chose to spark conversation about race and artistry, and how he’s rebuilding both his career and his trust in people. If you want the truth behind the headlines, this is the episode you can’t miss.
