Shannon Sharpe. Diddy. N.O.R.E. Joe Budden. Stephen A. Smith. Cam Newton. Dr. Umar Johnson. ESPN First Take. In EP 310, Loon connects the headlines to the real strategy behind media moves: why Shannon Sharpe made the same mistake as Diddy by settling after the story caught fire, how N.O.R.E.’s “Only 3 Podcasts Matter / Top 3 Podcasts” narrative chokes discovery instead of building infrastructure, and what it actually takes to grow a platform without gatekeeping or clout by association. This is a playbook episode about PR pressure, timing, preserved tapes, TV visibility vs. podcast performance, and the discipline to keep your circle tight when everyone wants credit after you win. What you will hear today: Shannon Sharpe vs. PR math (Diddy parallel): why timing beats tactics in settlements; how “dismissed with prejudice” plus preserved tapes can invite copycat claims; and why paying after the press reads like a payout signal instead of narrative control. We also discuss ESPN/First Take optics and the spillover into podcast numbers. N.O.R.E.’s “Only 3 Podcasts Matter / Top 3 Podcasts”: list talk vs. real infrastructure, including passing actual guest contacts, ad agency numbers, and building a Rogan style ecosystem for Black podcasters instead of shrinking the lane. Joe Budden blueprint: independence, leverage, and why the bag scales when you master distribution, cadence, and direct deals, not when you posture on lists. Dr. Umar Johnson and “relationship equity”: why some adult preferences require trust and long term rapport, and how reckless appetites become PR liabilities when you chase them outside real relationships. Cam Newton and hosting skill: big guests bring visibility, but hosting is a craft. If the craft is missing, the conversation will not travel. Proximity is not a cosign: Loon dismantles the “we went to school together” syndrome. Classmate is not comrade. If you did not help build it, do not try to build yourself off it after the win. Culture and character: streets are dead, big homies misusing leverage, entitlement, and why “useful” becomes “disposable” the second you stop adding value. Quick touch: Ksoo trial note (awareness, not a deep dive here). Big questions for the audience: Did Shannon’s settlement timing help his career or confirm the worst PR read? Does “Only 3 Podcasts Matter / Top 3 Podcasts” help the culture or choke discovery for rising Black podcasters? Whose blueprint actually builds — the list talkers or the infrastructure builders?

YSL Mondo EXPOSES Young Thug RICO SECRETS, Ralo Snitch Claims, Police SHOOT Scooter, Baby Mama DRAMA YSL Mondo is back and rawer than ever in Part 2. This isn't your average industry interview. Mondo calls out Atlanta’s rap scene for being fake, snitch-friendly, and money-hungry while acting street. He addresses Ralo snitch rumors head-on, explains why Gunna’s PR move is better than Thug’s silence, and questions the real loyalty behind YSL’s brand. Beyond rap beef, Mondo gets personal about dealing with a messy baby mama situation, fighting for fair child support, and why the system is designed to break Black fathers. He also speaks on the pain of seeing Atlanta legends like Young Scooter ignored in death, exposing how police used deadly swatting tactics and media coverups to hide the truth. The convo dives into spiritual growth, Mondo’s conversion to Islam, and why so many street dudes stay trapped in cycles of betrayal, greed, and lies. He exposes how labels exploit producers, fake industry politics, and the hypocrisy of rappers screaming loyalty but chasing clout. This is Atlanta raw. No PR spin. No industry payoffs. No lies. Just real talk about street codes, snitch accusations, family drama, police corruption, and the daily fight to stay true when everyone around you sells out. 🎧 If you're tired of safe, watered-down interviews, hit play.

Wack 100 sits down with Loon for one of the most intense episodes of It’s Up There Podcast to date. What starts as a conversation quickly turns into a heated back-and-forth over power, protection, betrayal, and the blurred lines between business and the streets. Wack opens up about how Clubhouse shifted his role in the game, turning him from a respected industry figure into a 24/7 target, and why he believes the app has become a digital battleground filled with spies, setups, and hidden agendas. The conversation turns sharp when Jim Jones’s name is brought up. Wack stands on his claim that a wiretap exists, referencing 6ix9ine’s federal situation and questioning why others got indicted while Jim walked free. Loon challenges Wack directly, asking for clarity and pushing for proof as Wack doubles down. From there, the two discuss Suge Knight’s true legacy—whether Suge was genuinely feared, or if it was the people around him that created the myth. Wack says Suge wasn’t the killer—he just knew who the killers were. Wack also breaks down how he helped Blueface generate millions in a system that counted him out. From YouTube plays to brand deals, Wack lays out the real numbers and calls out the industry’s attempts to silence him and his artist. The interview also touches on his fallout with Big U, including the studio incident and Cash Money West tension, as Loon demands to know whether that situation crossed the line into betrayal. Cardi B enters the conversation as Wack explains why some artists are protected at all costs and why label math always favors certain names. The episode wraps with a deep dive into how federal cooperation has crept into hip-hop, how paperwork is weaponized, and why the lines between real and fake are more dangerous than ever. This is one of those episodes where nothing was left unsaid. Loon doesn’t hold back. Wack doesn't fold. Two respected voices. One conversation. And the streets are definitely listening. 🎧 Audio available early every Monday on Patreon: / itsuptherepodcast 💬 Join the Looniverse Discord: / discord Join Our Its Up There Podcast Clip Channel now / @fogfo_looney Discord / discord For all exclusive interviews & more content not here click here / itsuptherepodcast 🚨Unreleased Interviews / itsuptherepodcast 🦺All Merch Options teespring.com/its-up-there-podcast-merch 🎧LISTEN ON SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/4Jheeb8... 👀 SUBSCRIBE HERE: / @itsuptherepodcast 👂 LISTEN ON APPLE PODCASTS: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... 👣FOLLOW ITS UP THERE PODCAST HOST : INSTAGRAM | fogfo_looney TIKTOK | / fogfo_looney PATREON| / itsuptherepodcast SUBSCRIBE TO Youtube Channel ➡️ / @itsuptherepodcast WATCH MORE ➡️ • EPISODE 069| WAR ON RAPPERS |LIBERATION LO... 00:00:00 Intro – setting the table; Wack pulls up solo 00:03:03 Why he doesn’t duck tough questions; respect for QCP 00:04:29 Lil Baby & The Game — first big moments and relationships 00:06:58 Early Cardi B/Blueface connect — how the verse came together 00:08:04 French Montana studio assist; the “money don’t spend here” line 00:09:56 “Bots” & fake numbers — how the narrative gets weaponized 00:10:36 Writers vs authenticity — industry process explained 00:13:26 Blogs vs facts — why he breaks down business on his channel 00:14:02 Funk Flex’s role in the “you must write” wave 00:16:04 Eric Bellinger → Chris Brown example of collaboration 00:29:03 Quad Studios revisited — why Puff/Big didn’t set up Pac 00:36:22 Drake vs Kendrick — marketing framing & public perception 00:41:32 Clubhouse is like a penitentiary — teams, spies, security 00:49:04 Death Row mechanics — conflict sells 00:53:45 Snoop telling Suge to bring in Tupac 00:55:17 Biggie & Puff context — hustlers vs gangsters 01:01:35 Bone & Terry Carter — how the situation escalated 01:12:04 Suge Knight — power, perception, and consequences 01:12:47 Big U — respect, territory, and LA politics 01:22:23 “Exclusive to Game” — studio room politics explained 01:39:27 Federal talk — what gets you jammed up 01:40:49 Conspiracy breakdown — how cases get built 01:43:10 Wiretaps — why the feds already heard it 01:44:27 Final word — closing statementsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this powerful solo episode of It’s Up There Podcast, Loon sets the record straight about his journey, calling out those who minimize his work in the podcasting game. He details how he built one of the South’s premier brands with no co-host, major sponsorships, and viral interviews—without dragging in a fanbase from music, sports, or industry connects. Loon also breaks down his past interviews with Adam22, addresses comments about Academics, explains his business approach, and defends the real cultural impact of his platform. He shares receipts about deals with Revolt, his iconic Lil Baby rollout interview, and key moments with Fred Taylor, Brandon Marshall, Maul, Rory, Rich Homie Quan, Benny the Butcher, and more. The episode also shifts to raw relationship talk: breaking down a viral cheating clip, emotional fallout, and hard truths about moving on when trust is broken. Loon speaks on emotional manipulation, the difference between accountability and extortion in love, and why men and women struggle to truly reconcile after betrayal. Packed with real game, personal history, and relationship insights, this solo episode is a blueprint for creators, men, and anyone navigating respect, betrayal, and staying solid in your purpose. ✅ SUGGESTED CHAPTER MARKERS / TIMESTAMPS 00:00 – Intro: Centering the episode on relationships and podcasting 01:00 – Clearing the air about minimization in the podcast space 02:00 – Discussing Adam22, Wack100, and Charleston White’s episode 04:00 – Addressing the “Academics” narrative about Loon’s rise 07:00 – Receipts on Revolt deal, solo interviews, and platform-building 10:00 – Key interviews: Fred Taylor, Brandon Marshall, Maul, Rory 12:00 – Cultural relevance and breaking into podcasting solo 14:00 – Relationship breakdown: Cheating story goes viral 20:00 – Real talk: Emotional manipulation, apology dynamics 25:00 – Salvage yard metaphor for broken relationships 30:00 – The reality of breakups and moving on 35:00 – On being misunderstood in the content space 40:00 – Critiquing Adam22’s content style and approach 50:00 – Raw reaction to the viral clip, analyzing the wife’s pain 1:00:00 – Lessons about love, trust, and knowing when to walk away 1:10:00 – Final reflections on respect, purpose, and keeping it real See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Big Loon is back solo on It's Up There Podcast with a raw, unfiltered breakdown of the culture’s hottest and most controversial stories. He dives deep into the BET Awards drama where Kai Cenat had to step in after BET blocked Tyli and his niece from the red carpet, exposing how corporate brands use Black creators for clout without respecting them. Loon calls out BET for being out of touch with real culture, and unpacks the industry tricks that keep independent Black voices locked out while chasing white validation. He also breaks down Diddy’s stunning RICO trial win against the feds—a rare moment that shocked hip-hop—and why people aren’t celebrating the man but are amazed he beat the system with a 98% conviction rate. In a twist, Cassie faces her own legal problems after a male escort sues her, flipping the narrative in a case that dominated headlines for months. Loon gives game on why the industry’s fake morality is selective and messy. And he sends a heartfelt, no-nonsense message about the mass shooting at rapper Mello Buckz’ album release in Chicago (Four dead and 14 injured in shooting at Chicago party for rapper Mello Buckzz)—questioning the culture of violence, explaining the warzone mentality, and urging young hustlers to pack their bags and plan their escape from the hood before it’s too late. This is Big Loon at his realest: no industry filters, no fake love, just the truth that needs to be heard. ✅ Subscribe now for more raw, in-depth commentary on hip-hop, culture, and the streets. ✅ Watch the full episode, share it, and let us know how you feel in the comments. ✅ Support the movement on Patreon for exclusive content. #ItsUpTherePodcast #BigLoon #KaiCenat #BET #Diddy #Cassie #MelloBucks #Chicago  0:00 - Episode Opening & Solo Return 2:15 - BET Red Carpet Incident Discussion 8:30 - The "Icons Only" Policy Controversy 12:45 - Kai Cenat's Support & Industry Dynamics 18:20 - Chicago Violence & Recent Shootings 25:10 - War Zone Mentality & Growing Up in Violence 32:40 - Street Life Philosophy & Making It Out 38:55 - Diddy Trial Commentary & Federal System 45:30 - Personal Trauma & Trust Issues 52:15 - Reputation vs Legacy Discussion 58:40 - Underground Railroad Metaphor 1:05:20 - Swimming with Sharks Analogy 1:12:10 - Industry Politics & Black Recognition 1:18:45 - Herbo Interview Preview & Chicago Mindset 1:25:30 - Patreon Updates & Call-in Show Announcement 1:30:15 - Final Thoughts & Episode 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.

Dr. Umar Johnson returns with an unfiltered conversation tackling some of the most controversial topics in Black culture today. In this powerful Part 2, he breaks his silence on Diddy's RICO case and Cassie's explosive testimony, questioning the legal system’s use of the Mann Act against Black men. He calls out LeBron James for staying silent about police violence in Akron while being vocal on international issues like Palestine, exposing the politics of selective activism. This full episode is a must-watch for anyone who wants to understand how white supremacy, celebrity culture, and interracial dating intersect. Dr. Umar Johnson dives deep into the psychology behind Black men dating white women—calling it a form of political surrender—and critiques Shannon Sharpe’s viral "Snow Bunny" relationships. He argues that these dating choices are not just personal but send clear signals of loyalty to white power structures. We also unpack Cassie's lawsuit against Diddy, the racial dynamics of sexual exploitation, and the historic weaponization of the Mann Act to target powerful Black men. Dr. Umar warns about the legal precedent being set that could threaten Black men everywhere. He challenges Black celebrities to show real cultural loyalty—even at the cost of endorsements and mainstream approval. This episode doesn’t hold back. It confronts the hard truths about self-hate, validation, and the systemic pressures that push Black men to abandon their community. Dr. Umar Johnson offers a raw critique of how economic power, celebrity influence, and sexual politics are used to maintain white supremacy while keeping the Black community divided and distracted.

Dive deep into how Georgia’s most explosive hip-hop legal battles really went down: Doug first lays out the jaw-dropping saga of Brian Steele—lead defense attorney for Young Thug in the record-breaking YSL RICO trial, held in contempt and briefly jailed for exposing an ex parte meeting, then vindicated by the Georgia Supreme Court. Now, Steele’s reputation has crossed coasts: he’s been tapped to join Sean “Diddy” Combs’ defense team in the Miami sex-trafficking case Switching gears, Doug breaks down why Jeffrey “Young Thug” Williams’ blind plea couldn’t be more different from Gunna’s negotiated deal and exposes the feds’ immunity “trick” that actually strips defendants of their Fifth Amendment rights—no choice, no take-back. He also pulls back the curtain on the leaked jail calls and pretrial leaks that have dogged Diddy since his September 2024 arrest on federal sex-trafficking and racketeering charges, highlighting how unauthorized recordings and leaked notes threaten fair trial rights This episode doesn’t stop there: Doug critiques the controversial use of rap lyrics and logos as “evidence,” details the courtroom clashes between Judge Glanville and Judge Whitaker and reveals his own behind-the-scenes lobbying for Georgia’s Rap Act reform to protect artistic expression. Whether you’re a hip-hop head, a legal junkie, or a culture critic, you’ll get the insider analysis on: Brian Steele’s integrity arrest and Supreme Court victory The real risks of non-negotiated pleas vs. plea bargains How “immunity” is wielded as a coercive tactic Diddy’s bail denials, jail calls, and aggressive prosecution The fight for the Rap Act to safeguard creative freedom 🔥 Subscribe for weekly hard-hitting breakdowns on It’s Up There Podcast 💬 Join the convo: Tag @ItsUpTherePodcast and drop your hot take! 💖 Support us: https://patreon.com/ItsUpTherePodcast #briansteele #seancombstrial #diddy #YoungThug #gunna #ysltrial #diddy #youngthugger #pdiddytrial 0:00 – Introduction and Doug Weinstein's Background 2:15 – YSL Trial Overview and Case Complexity 4:32 – Initial Reactions to the Indictment and RICO Charges 7:18 – The Secret Meeting Controversy and Judge Glanville 10:45 – Brian Steele Arrest – Unprecedented Legal Drama 14:22 – Criminal Defense Bar Solidarity and "SEAL Team Six" Response 17:56 – Judge Whitaker vs Judge Glanville – Contrasting Judicial Styles 21:30 – Witness Immunity System Explained – Not What People Think 25:12 – Woody's Testimony and Forced Immunity Discussion 29:45 – Kenneth Copeland's Cooperation and Lies to Police 33:18 – Rap Lyrics as Evidence and Prosecutorial Misconduct 37:24 – The "5 Million on Your Head" Misinterpretation 40:15 – Advocacy for the Rap Act and Protecting Artistic Expression 43:52 – Ms. Love's Aggressive Prosecution Tactics 47:33 – Evidence Alteration Accusations Against Brian Steele 51:08 – Young Thug's Plea Decision – Non-Negotiated vs Negotiated 55:45 – Comparing Young Thug's Plea to Gunna's Plea Deal 59:12 – Yak Gotti Standing Trial – "I Had Nothing to Do With It" 1:02:30 – Losing Thug and the Defense Team's Response 1:09:15 – Law and Crime Documentary Criticism 1:12:33 – Thugger Daily and Independent Journalism Praise 1:15:20 – Rich Homie Quan Interview and YSL Dynamics 1:18:45 – Jail Phone Call Leaks and Unethical Behavior 1:21:13 – Payment Structure for High-Profile Criminal Cases 1:23:41 – Court Appointed vs Private Attorney Differences 1:26:28 – Judge Glanville's Reputation and What Went Wrong 1:29:45 – Final Words and AppreciationSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Big Loon kicks off the pod with a heartfelt thank you to his supporters (0:00) before sharing why he’s still too close to his own trauma to tell his full story (2:15). He then reflects on being misunderstood, embracing the “life of kings” mindset, and how fame makes it hard to trust anyone (4:40). After previewing a new feature on Patreon and plans for a street‑style book club (9:00), Loon gives a salute to David Shands & the builder class at Social Proof (13:40). Then the real heat starts: Shannon Sharpe’s $10 M hush offer gets rejected (17:05), and Loon goes in on Tony Buzbee’s shady lawsuit history (19:00). He breaks down why Sharpe’s rushed video response might’ve nuked his NDA (24:10) and warns that Sharpe’s “playboy” image could boomerang into public persecution (31:30). Next, Kevin Gates gets called out for the $25 K courtside “crash‑out” aimed at LeBron’s wife (35:45), and Loon explains the unwritten rule about clout‑chasing through family. Tyrese’s court battle leads to a deeper convo about how the system milks men through child support (39:55), and Loon closes with a reminder: credibility is currency—perspective is product (42:25). 00:00 Intro & Thank Y’all 02:15 Too Close to My Trauma 04:40 “Life of Kings” Mindset & Fame 09:00 New Patreon Feature + Book Club 13:40 Salute: David Shands & Social Proof 17:05 Shannon Sharpe’s $10M Hush Rejected 19:00 Tony Buzbee’s Lawsuit History 24:10 NDA Nuke?

In this episode of It’s Up There Podcast, Loon sits down with Rory for a no-filter conversation that goes beyond podcast beef and dives into the truth behind the podcast industry, the cost of vulnerability, and why so many platforms are pushing entertainment over authenticity. Rory opens up about what really happened behind the scenes with Joe Budden, why he regrets even telling the truth publicly, and how lies often travel further than honesty in this new age of content. Loon presses him on his role in the business of podcasting, helping creators get deals, and why he rarely speaks up for himself—even when the smut gets thrown on his name. The conversation moves into deep waters: Is Joe Rogan still worth $300 million at Spotify, or is the podcast bubble about to burst? Why Rory stopped reading comments and how chasing fire emojis can kill your creativity How real podcasting has been hijacked by reaction culture and viral lies Why truth, trauma, and trust are the most dangerous parts of building a platform Loon and Rory also discuss Rumble vs. Twitch, the streaming war for creators like Kai Cenat, and why so many personalities online are just performing pain for profit. They also go deep on Andrew Tate, manipulation in media, and how people are using therapy buzzwords as branding tools instead of healing. If you’ve ever felt conflicted about building in public, protecting your peace, or calling out false narratives without feeding the clout machine—this episode is a blueprint. 🎯 Come for the talk about Spotify, Rogan, and Rory’s journey—stay for the game Loon drops on how to survive the noise without selling your soul. 🟡 Subscribe to the channel 🟣 Join the Patreon for uncut episodes: https://patreon.com/ItsUpTherePodcast 🟠 Tap into the Discord: https://discord.gg/3AwsHfDcJB 🔵 Follow on Instagram & TikTok @ItsUpTherePodcast 🔴 Full podcast playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnwwxLxHiDWYLCXvb81w69QAfr6cc1Y3N #ItsUpTherePodcast #Rory #JoeBudden #PodcastBeef #SpotifyPodcasts #Charlamagne #AndrewTate #KaiCenat #Loon #BlackEffect #HipHopPodcasts #RealConvos #ContentCreators Rory: Joe Budden Snake Moves, Vlad Can’t Be Trusted, Kai Cenat Pressured, Rory Regrets Exposing Joe Budden | Says Vlad Profits Off Black Trauma, Joe Rogan Untouchable, Twitch Owns Kai Cenat Rory Breaks Silence on Joe Budden Fallout + Says Industry Rewards Liars + Talks Vlad, Rogan, Kai Cenat, More Rory Regrets Exposing Joe Budden | Vlad TV Called Out, Joe Rogan’s Power, Twitch Owns Kai Cenat Rory Regrets Exposing Joe Budden | Says Vlad Profits Off Black Trauma, Joe Rogan Untouchable, Twitch Owns Kai Cenat 00:00 - Rory on Spotify’s Podcast Strategy & Why They Carve Out Joe Rogan 10:42 - Rory Says Liars Are Better Entertainers: “Truth Don’t Matter” 18:31 - Loon Breaks Down His Trust Issues Post Street-to-Podcast Transition 24:50 - Podcast Fans Acting Like They Know You: The Burden of Vulnerability 35:29 - Rory on Joe Budden: “I Thought I Was in Control.

This Is Why Joe Budden Almost Fired Melissa Ford After That Drake Line This episode, Loon delivers a piercing breakdown of one of the most hypocritical moves in podcasting history. When Drake shouted out Melissa Ford on "Give Me a Hug" — while taking a jab at Joe Budden — the Joe Budden Podcast team secretly bought the domain on Drake’s merch and rerouted it to Joe's Patreon. Not Melissa’s. Not a collab. Straight exploitation. In this episode of It’s Up There Podcast, Loon breaks down one of the wildest betrayals in podcast history — and it’s got Joe Budden written all over it. When Drake dropped "Give Me a Hug" and gave Melissa Ford a shoutout while simultaneously throwing shade at Joe, fans expected Mel to shine off the moment. But what happened instead? Joe Budden’s team snatched the domain name tied to Drake’s merch drop and rerouted it to his Patreon, cutting Mel out entirely. Loon pulls the mask off the manipulation and asks the hard questions: 🧠 Why would a self-proclaimed creator advocate hijack a moment meant for his co-host? 💼 Is this business innovation or just ego-driven overreach? 🏛️ How does this mirror the corporate behavior Joe Budden used to protest at Complex & Spotify? 🧩 Why do Black women keep getting shut out of platforms they help build? This episode dives deeper than gossip — it’s a cultural x-ray of gatekeeping, branding betrayal, and hypocrisy in the new media landscape. 🔍 SEO-Friendly Timestamps: 00:00 – Intro: Why It’s Up There Podcast Is Leading the Culture 01:45 – What Every Creator Needs to Hear Right Now 03:22 – LaRussell’s Shift on Labels & Creator Control 06:01 – The Rise of Joe Budden: From Rapper to Podcaster 09:50 – Drake Mentions Melissa Ford on “Give Me a Hug” 13:30 – Joe Budden Team Grabs the Viral URL Behind Her Back 17:40 – Why This Was Exploitation, Not a Strategic Collab 20:10 – Legal Grey Areas: Could This Lead to a Lawsuit? 24:30 – The Ironic Fall: Joe Becomes the System He Fought 28:45 – PR Spin & Joe’s Internal Pushback 32:12 – Melissa Ford’s Role: Strategy or Stand? 36:10 – How the Creator vs Culture Debate Is Changing 38:55 – Bonus: Brick Baby vs Loose Cannon Situation 42:25 – No Jumper’s Gang War Allegory & Street Exploitation 47:50 – Adam22’s Role & Why He Didn’t Intervene 53:00 – Final Word: What Accountability in New Media Really Looks Like 55:42 – Closing Remarks: Don’t Just Build For You.

Young Thug On The Heels Of New Album " Uy Scuti" And we have an powerful and revealing episode of *It’s Up There Podcast*, Loon sits down with Juror 56 — the lead juror from the Young Thug YSL RICO trial — for a rare and uncensored conversation. This isn't just commentary. This is the man who ran the jury room, speaking publicly for the first time about how dangerously close the trial came to putting Young Thug behind bars for life. Juror 56 recounts the intense emotional pressure inside the courtroom and explains how jurors clashed behind closed doors — particularly over the use of rap lyrics as evidence. According to him, the jury was just three votes away from a life sentence, and it was his leadership that prevented a conviction based on music and speculation. He reveals what it was like being shuttled into court under security lockdown, the political power plays happening between DA Love and defense attorney Brian Steele, and why he believes the State mishandled the case from day one. He also dives into how the court's decision to allow Young Thug’s lyrics into evidence nearly changed the outcome — and exposes how media narratives and courtroom theatrics almost overshadowed the facts. He opens up about the juror selection process, the internal conflicts between jurors, and the real reason the jury almost split down the middle.

🎙️ In this explosive episode of It’s Up There Podcast, Loon delivers a raw and unfiltered breakdown of how Brick Baby’s loyalty to No Jumper got him caught in a federal indictment — and how Adam22 turned his back after years of profiting off his name. When Brick Baby tried to make bond, the feds used No Jumper podcast clips as evidence to argue he was a danger to society. They cited videos of him with firearms, verbal threats on air, and gang talk — all captured on Adam22’s platform. But it gets worse… 🧊 Adam22 — who built content, traffic, and revenue off Brick Baby’s name for years — publicly stated he doesn’t pick up jail calls and refused to pay for Brick Baby’s legal help, even as his platform is mentioned in federal court. This episode dives into the cold business of content, the emotional warfare of podcast culture, and how the algorithm rewards self-destruction. Loon holds nothing back as he explains how the platforms are turning street dudes into digital crash dummies — then walking away when the feds come knocking. 🧠 Key Themes Explored: 🎯 The cost of clout: When street credibility becomes digital currency, who profits? 🔥 "It’s not personal, it’s profitable": The industry’s silent motto when your life becomes content. ⚖️ The algorithm is the new trap: Feds are watching podcasts, and some platforms are baiting indictments. 🎮 Crash-out culture: How men are emotionally manipulated into turning content into confessions. 💡 Ownership of behavior: If you can't control your cravings, you're not ready for real responsibility. ⏱ Full Timestamps Breakdown (Story Arc Format) 00:00 – Welcome back: Loon reflects on podcast collapse & the "content drought" 04:10 – Adam22’s “I’m broke” play: Why Loon calls it calculated marketing 07:45 – Why Loon never sat on No Jumper: Strategy over visibility 10:00 – “Learning is the treasure the thief can’t take”: Game on mental wealth 13:30 – Emotional manipulation & black creators burning out for clicks 17:15 – The danger of being reactionary: “You’re a slave to your cravings” 22:00 – The black gossip economy: Why it profits from pain 26:40 – Brick Baby’s bond hearing: Feds used podcast clips to lock him in 30:55 – Adam22’s refusal to pay for his lawyer — despite being in the indictment 35:20 – Why Brick Baby crashed out on content: Ego, clout, and misdirection 38:00 – “They watching podcasts now”: The new surveillance trap 41:10 – How No Jumper built a platform on black trauma 44:00 – Loon on how to avoid the crash: Recover speed, self-governance 47:35 – Why authenticity can’t be bought — and why stoicism matters 50:22 – Adam22 vs. Akademiks: The cold war over street content 53:00 – Loon: “I monetize game, not meltdowns” 55:40 – Cultural accountability: Why the audience must stop rewarding dysfunction 58:00 – Final message: If you don’t climb the mountain, you don’t get the view 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=PLnwwxLxHiDWayq4HPgNYUtsAGvqe3liOO 🔗 Links for Support, Early Access, and Community 👥 Join the Discord: https://discord.gg/3AwsHfDcJB 🎧 Subscribe on Patreon for early episodes: https://patreon.com/ItsUpTherePodcast 📺 Full episode playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnwwxLxHiDWYLCXvb81w69QAfr6cc1Y3N 📸 Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/itsuptherepodcast 🎙️ Listen on iHeart, Spotify & Apple Podcasts — search: It’s Up There Podcast Brick Baby got DENIED bond after the feds used clips from @NoJumper — and @adam22 said he ain’t helping with no lawyer 😳 This man was on your platform for years... made you MILLIONS… now you won’t even answer his jail call?

Adam22 Pressed on Using Black Culture, Clout Chasing Criminals & No Jumper Falling Apart Adam22 Confronted for Clout Chasing Off Street Culture, Fearing Akademiks, and Losing Control of No Jumper as Staff Turn On Him Adam22 Of No Jumper pulls up to It’s Up There Podcast and gets pressed on everything the internet's been scared to say to his face. From accusations of using Black culture for profit to clout chasing criminal cases, Loon asks the questions that made other platforms nervous. In this explosive sit-down, Adam22 addresses the growing belief that he built No Jumper off Black trauma, only to let the platform crumble once the pressure hit. He responds to claims that he clout-chased off gang beefs, exploited street dudes for views, and played both sides when Akademiks started applying pressure. Loon confronts Adam directly on why he still won’t check Akademiks, and what it says about loyalty, fear, and power in hip-hop media. As No Jumper loses staff and credibility, Adam opens up about the business falling apart behind the scenes — and whether his own ego, decisions, and detachment from the culture played a role in its decline. 🔑 Key Topics in the Interview 00:00 – Adam22 on building No Jumper off the culture 06:40 – Why he clout-chased street rappers & criminal headlines 12:55 – Loon questions if he used Black trauma to go viral 18:30 – Joe Budden confrontation & why it exposed real tension 25:45 – Adam on Akademiks: fear, fake peace, and public perception 33:10 – Staff leaving No Jumper & internal issues getting out of hand 40:00 – Loon on what makes content dangerous vs. impactful 45:20 – Adam22 talks about keeping control while everything fell apart 52:10 – The difference between respecting the culture vs. using it 59:00 – Loon breaks down why ownership without accountability is hollow 1:05:00 – Adam on the future of No Jumper & where he stands with the culture 🎯 This episode covers: Black culture & exploitation in hip-hop media Adam22’s public fallout with Akademiks No Jumper’s internal collapse and staff exits Clout chasing vs. storytelling in street interviews Joe Budden, Vlad, and the media war over who owns the narrative 📌 SUPPORT + FOLLOW: 🔒 Patreon for early access: https://patreon.com/ItsUpTherePodcast 💬 Join the convo on Discord: https://discord.gg/3AwsHfDcJB 📺 YouTube playlist of all episodes: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnwwxLxHiDWYLCXvb81w69QAfr6cc1Y3N 📱 Follow us on IG: https://instagram.com/ItsUpTherePodcast 🎯 TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@itsuptherepodcast 🎥 Snapchat: https://story.snapchat.com/@itsuptherepodcast 🔗 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/itsuptherepodcast #Adam22 #NoJumper #Akademiks #CloutChasing #briccbaby #nojumperclips #wack100See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Loon & K Camp kick off the latest It’s Up There Podcast by debating whether an artist should roll with personal security or move solo (0:00). The conversation then shifts to a controversial moment in Atlanta when K Camp gave out plaques to only a few local DJs—leading to major backlash and prompting him to leave the city (9:13). They revisit K Camp’s decision to drop $15k/month on luxury L.A. cribs while new acts like 21 Savage exploded back home (21:45). Later, K Camp reveals how he went years without label checks due to messy contracts (35:12) and opens up about surviving off club shows and mixtapes. The two then break down the viral success of “Lottery” (47:58), detailing the TikTok dance controversy sparked by a white influencer overshadowing a Black creator. K Camp also explains how that same record led to a Fortnite placement and forced his label’s hand to support him again (57:31). The episode winds down with K Camp celebrating full independence, emphasizing the importance of brand consistency, and teasing what’s next now that he’s free from label politics (1:05:42). Before the Renegade dance took over TikTok, it started with 14-year-old Jalaiah Harmon—the original creator who never got credit when the trend blew up. Influencers like Charli D’Amelio and Addison Rae made the dance famous, but Jalaiah was left in the shadows until the truth came out. The viral moment sparked major debates about crediting Black creators, leading to changes on social media. Now, K Camp, the artist behind Lottery (Renegade), speaks on what really happened, how his song became a global sensation, and the impact of the controversy. 📍 Join the conversation & drop your thoughts in the comments!

Building on recent developments, Loon dissects Drake’s high-stakes lawsuits against UMG and the complex “zero sum” nature of industry business. Loon connects these legal battles to Kendrick Lamar’s maneuvers—exploring how Kendrick might have leveraged Future, the Southern hip-hop scene, and the cultural shifts sparked by the South to strengthen his position while challenging Drake’s dominance. From the behind-the-scenes contracts and shifting industry alliances to Joe Budden’s perspective on Drake’s potential exit from the game, Loon uncovers the layers of strategy, negotiation, and influence at play. He examines Drake’s confidence, his tour commitments, and the legendary Cash Money legacy that shaped his career. He also revisits Kendrick’s Super Bowl halftime show announcement and the intriguing silence on collaborations, as well as Lil Wayne’s expectations and how the South’s pivotal role reshaped these hip-hop battles. This episode takes you through the full spectrum—BG and Turk’s beef, the impact of consumer data in label negotiations, the global influence Drake wields, and how streaming platforms rely on artists like him to drive change. It’s a raw, unfiltered look into how these titans navigate industry complexities, control narratives, and chart their paths. Whether you’re interested in the real reasons behind Drake’s lawsuits, what Kendrick’s next move might be, or how Future’s cultural footprint affects everyone’s bottom line, this conversation offers a front-row seat to hip-hop history in motion. 00:00:00 - Kendrick’s Diss to Lil Wayne: The GNX Album Bombshell 00:00:25 - Why Artists Need to Think Smarter 00:00:39 - What Makes a Perfect Album Intro (Meek Mill Reference) 00:01:00 - Ad-Libs and Creativity: Setting the Tone 00:01:21 - Drake vs. UMG: Lawsuits, Drama, and Defamation Claims 00:02:18 - The Hidden World of Music Industry Politics 00:02:50 - Emails That Can Make or Break Careers 00:03:17 - What’s Really Behind Drake’s Legal Battles 00:04:33 - The Super Bowl Effect on Kendrick vs. Drake 00:05:05 - Business Stakes of Hip-Hop’s Biggest Rivalry 00:06:35 - Joe Budden Speaks on Drake’s Exit from UMG 00:08:20 - Why Business Growth Is Missing from Major Artists 00:10:23 - Drake’s Untapped Potential as a Mogul 00:12:28 - Kendrick’s Strategy: Why He’s Beating Drake 00:14:02 - Rihanna’s Pivot: Lessons for Drake and Kendrick 00:15:14 - Kendrick’s Super Bowl Move: A New Orleans Power Play? 00:16:05 - Kendrick’s Lyrics: A Bold Challenge to Lil Wayne 00:19:33 - Kendrick’s Edge Over Drake in Hip-Hop’s Power Struggle 00:21:51 - Why the South Is the Key to Kendrick’s Strategy 00:22:52 - Future’s Role in Hip-Hop’s Biggest Battle 00:24:05 - Collaborations That Could Take Down Drake 00:27:04 - Kendrick’s Calculated Moves vs. Drake’s Missteps 00:28:26 - Is Drake Losing the War Behind Closed Doors? 00:30:03 - The Legal and Business Drama Behind Drake’s Lawsuits 00:32:00 - How Drake Helped Build Spotify and Apple Music 00:33:37 - The Financial Forces Driving Hip-Hop’s Biggest Names 00:34:36 - Why Drake’s Contracts Are Holding Him Back 00:39:30 - The Hidden Power of Advances in the Music Business 00:41:23 - How Labels Control Artists Like Drake 00:42:33 - Drake’s True Value: The Data Tells All 00:44:31 - Alliances That Could Save Drake’s Legacy 00:46:00 - Why Drake’s Career Lacks a Mogul Moment 00:47:31 - The $400 Million Question: What’s Next for Drake? 00:50:10 - Drake vs. Jay-Z: Two Strategies, One Winner 00:54:14 - How Consistency Builds Industry Giants 00:56:06 - Drake’s Leaked Frustrations with Universal 00:59:34 - Why Drake Might Be Holding Himself Back 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.
