·37 min·3 clips

Pooh Shiesty and Big30 were just arrested for allegedly robbing and kidnapping the man who signed them, Gucci Mane.

The episode opens with Lovelyti announcing the arrest of Pooh Shiesty, his father Lontrell Williams Sr., and rapper Big30 for allegedly robbing and kidnapping Gucci Mane and his associates. She explains the backstory: Pooh Shiesty, signed to Gucci Mane's 1017 label, was unhappy with his contract and arranged a meeting in Dallas. According to federal complaints, the business meeting turned into an armed takeover where Pooh Shiesty produced an AK-style pistol and forced Gucci to sign a release. The host then plays audio from the federal announcement detailing the charges. She notes that rumors of this incident had been circulating on social media and podcasts for months prior. Lovelyti plays a clip from a podcast where insiders discuss the rumor of Pooh Shiesty and his crew 'running down on' Gucci Mane. The episode shifts to explore GloRilla's connection, highlighting her frequent musical collaborations with Pooh Shiesty around the time of the incident. Lovelyti points out the historical beef between GloRilla's label head Yo Gotti (CMG) and Gucci Mane (1017), suggesting a possible strategic motive. She plays a clip from a gossip channel speculating that GloRilla may have encouraged Pooh Shiesty to switch labels. Another clip features Hernandez Govan taunting Gucci Mane about the situation shortly after the robbery. Lovelyti then walks through the affidavit paperwork, detailing the sequence of events in the studio, including the involvement of Pooh Shiesty's father and the violent acts against Gucci's associates. She shows images from the affidavit and social media where suspects displayed stolen Rolex watches and cash. The host contrasts Gucci Mane's past public statements about never snitching with his cooperation in this federal case. She analyzes the electronic monitoring data that placed Pooh Shiesty at the crime scene while on home detention. Lovelyti speculates that Yo Gotti might have been behind the plot to lure Pooh Shiesty away from 1017. She concludes by calling the situation 'messy' and opens the discussion to her audience about the father's involvement and potential label manipulation.
