In this solo episode of It’s Up There Podcast, Loon breaks down the real conversation behind Fivio Foreign’s appearance on DJ Akademiks, the fallout involving 21 Savage, and the growing debate around the phrase “F the Streets.”
What starts as a viral moment turns into a much bigger discussion about power, perception, ownership, and regional tension in hip-hop.
Loon reacts to Fivio Foreign questioning the value of Southern artists and blog coverage, explains why so many rappers chase posts instead of profit, and unpacks how platforms like Akademiks shape narratives without paying artists for their IP. He also addresses the South vs North dynamic, why Atlanta continues to be the industry’s backbone, and how fame often gets mistaken for leverage.
This episode also explores:
• Why being posted on blogs doesn’t translate to music sales• The confusion between “street identity” and grown-man business• How artists give away power chasing clout• Why silence gets mistaken for weakness• Nipsey Hussle’s legacy vs today’s “street” conversations• Why the South doesn’t need validation to run the game
This isn’t a defense of anyone — it’s a breakdown of the system, the incentives, and the misunderstanding driving these viral moments.
If you’re looking for real perspective on Akademiks, Fivio Foreign, 21 Savage, Atlanta, hip-hop economics, blog culture, street narratives, and ownership, this episode puts everything into context.
TOPICS DISCUSSED
• Fivio Foreign on DJ Akademiks• 21 Savage and the “F the Streets” conversation• South vs North tension in hip-hop• Atlanta’s role in controlling music culture• Blog clout vs real money• Why artists beg for posts• IP, leverage, and ownership• Street talk vs business reality• Nipsey Hussle and elevation past the streets

Big Loon breaks down the Cardi B, Offset, and Stefon Diggs situation after Cardi goes on Spaces addressing fan backlash, “revenge baby” claims, tour stress, and public pressure following her breakup with Offset. This episode explores why embarrassment ends relationships faster than cheating, how emotional loyalty overrides business logic, and why public relationships collapse once the internet feels entitled to the details. Loon also examines Offset’s post-divorce behavior, including allegations involving Selena Powell, money issues, gambling talk, and why men oversharing in emotional moments always backfires. The conversation then shifts to hip-hop legacy and respect as Jim Jones, Cam’ron, and Dame Dash resurface old tension after a leaked fight clip, raising bigger questions about ego, brotherhood, money, and aging in public. This is not gossip — it’s a culture breakdown on relationships, power, masculinity, and discipline. 🎧 Audio episodes drop weekly 💬 Join the community on Patreon 📺 Full conversations only on It’s Up There Podcast FULL TIMESTAMPS (CLEAN + CLICKABLE) 00:00 – Intro & why this is a real show, not clips 01:40 – Cardi B, Offset, Stefon Diggs & relationship pressure 03:30 – Cardi B on Spaces responding to fans & rumors 06:55 – “Leave me alone” – tour stress, pregnancy & backlash 08:30 – Why embarrassment ends relationships faster than cheating 11:45 – “I hate men” moment & why that hurts business 14:00 – Men failing to protect a woman’s mindset 16:00 – Cardi responds to “revenge baby” narrative 18:40 – Divorce leverage, court optics & emotional decisions 21:30 – Offset, money talk & why business teams push settlements 24:10 – Why men cheat & avoid honest conversations 28:40 – Selena Powell exposes Offset (alleged) 33:30 – Why men talk too much & get burned 36:50 – Jim Jones vs Cam’ron tension explained 40:30 – Dame Dash fight clip resurfaces 45:20 – Respect, ego & aging in hip-hop 52:30 – Final thoughts on discipline & silence Join Our Its Up There Podcast Clip Channel now https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEh6Wk40kcNcMJ4t_jtmluw Discord https://discord.gg/GJKXMWQS For all exclusive interviews & more content not here click here https://www.patreon.com/itsuptherepodcast 🚨Unreleased Interviews https://www.patreon.com/itsuptherepodcast 🦺All Merch Options teespring.com/its-up-there-podcast-merch 🎧LISTEN ON SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/4Jheeb8FxYVDRo8khyrz36?si=e339dD2JRte2MYX2Uon3BQ 👀 SUBSCRIBE HERE:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCl_GorAVekpEVDlk1Yc8giw 👂 LISTEN ON APPLE PODCASTS: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/its-up-there-podcast/id1317524092?uo=4 👣FOLLOW ITS UP THERE PODCAST HOST : INSTAGRAM | fogfo_looney TIKTOK | https://www.tiktok.com/@fogfo_looney PATREON| https://www.patreon.com/itsuptherepodcast SUBSCRIBE TO Youtube Channel ➡️ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCl_GorAVekpEVDlk1Yc8giw WATCH MORE ➡️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JwNIuOcAtoo&list=PLnwwxLxHiDWayq4HPgNYUtsAGvqe3liOO

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