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.

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.

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. This is Young Thug in a vulnerable, reflective space — balancing pain, backlash, and growth while still giving fans a look at what’s next. --- 🔥 Don’t miss Part 1 here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHTPRAOq_5k 🎧 Listen on Black Effect / iHeart & everywhere you get podcasts. --- 💡 **Join the movement:** - Patreon for early access + full episodes: https://patreon.com/ItsUpTherePodcast - Discord community: https://discord.gg/3AwsHfDcJB --- #YoungThug #YFNLucci #LilDurk #NBAYoungBoy #LilBaby #Drake #itsuptherepodcast 0:00 Intro 2:34 “Miss My Dogs” record & leaked calls 3:00 Gunna & Brian Steele statement 4:11 YFN Lucci beef squashed + backlash 4:51 Lil Durk 15:39 NBA YoungBoy 16:00 YoungBoy’s growth 24:00 Lil Baby 26:00 Drake 30:00 Extortion & jail calls 36:00 Betrayal & loyalty 45:00 Industry politics & narratives 52:32 Closing thoughts (new album, wholesome music, moving with God) 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.

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.

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.
