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.

Doug Weinstein UNPACKS TRUTH on Brian Steele & Diddy, Young Thug vs Gunna Pleas, & Feds’ Immunity Trick in this can’t-miss episode of It’s Up There Podcast. 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.
