LOON Breaks Down Why Defending the Streets Keeps the Youth Stuck + Tekashi 6ix9ine on Steiny & 2025

from ITS UP THERE PODCAST W/LOONEY · host The Black Effect Podcast Network and iHeartPodcasts

LOON sets the tone for 2026 with a real conversation about accountability, boundaries, and leadership — and why glorifying the “street lifestyle” can keep the next generation stuck. He also reacts to Tekashi 6ix9ine on Steiny, breaking down what gets misunderstood when people outside the culture try to “explain” something they didn’t build. In the year-end wrap-up, LOON covers major 2025 conversations — including Drake/UMG lawsuit talk, bots & fake stream allegations, the reaction economy, and why distribution + attention matter heading into 2026.
