the BASSLINE podcast ep 297

Pooh Shiesty robbed Gucci Mane at gunpoint — on house arrest, on camera, and then somebody posted the jewelry after.

Episode 297 is a full stupidity audit. C0pp0 and Young Mitchell break down the Pooh Shiesty/Gucci situation from every angle: the footage, the ankle monitor, the forced label release, the dad showing up, and the larger question of when exactly a street rapper is allowed to retire from street code. Then Kanye gets banned from the UK, Pepsi pulls out of Wireless Fest, the whole festival collapses, and nobody can figure out who's big enough to replace him on short notice. Also: Offset gets shot at a South Florida casino after running up a $686K tab and asking for another $500K credit line, Lil TJ gets arrested and immediately takes his shirt off outside, Ebro admits he can't book guests without the Hot 97 engine behind him, Geno Auriemma gets called out by Dawn Staley on national television, Michigan wins the men's national championship, Angel Reese lands with the Atlanta Dream, and DMV Heat Check brings Uncle John's Self Made 1.0.
