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.

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.

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.
