Adam22 Says He Wasn't Arrested, Feds Wanted Big U Letter Regarding Nipsey Hussle
Adam22 says he was NOT picked up by the feds, contrary to reports, but he tells us Uncle Sam paid him a visit regarding the Big U case and Nipsey Hussle's murder. We got the "No Jumper" podcast host at Bob Hope Airport in Burbank and we asked him about Wack 100 claiming he was arrested by federal agents. Adam22 says the feds talked to him about the Big U case and they wanted to get their hands on a cease-and-desist letter Big U sent Adam's podcast regarding an episode where Luce Cannon claimed Big U had prior knowledge of Nipsey's death before the fatal March 2019 shooting. Big U helped launch Nipsey's rap career and in his federal RICO case, the indictment claims Big U is heard on wiretapped calls saying he was "bigger" than Nipsey and disciplined Hussle before his murder. Adam22 says it's pretty interesting to find out the feds are interested in Big U's potential connections to Nipsey's death ... and, frankly, he's not wrong.

Wack 100 claims Adam22 arrested by feds after teasing RICO update on Instagram: "They came and got him"
Music executive Wack 100 claimed that Adam22, host of the No Jumper podcast, was arrested by federal authorities—just one day after teasing a 'crazy update' related to the ongoing RICO investigation involving rapper Bricc Baby and others. The claim came during a recent No Jumper podcast episode, where Wack 100 explained Adam's sudden absence. "He was supposed to go live today, right? They came and got him this morning. They doubled back. We tried to have him out," Wack told the No Jumper team over the phone. He added that he contacted his lawyer, saying, "Tryna get him down there so Adam don't be doing no telling, bro." The arrest has not been officially confirmed, but Wack's claim aligns with an Instagram post Adam22 shared earlier. In the post, the podcaster stated that federal officers had visited his home. 'I made it 41 years into this life before I had involvement, conversations with federal agents,' Adam22 wrote. He said the agents asked about individuals involved in the case, including Bricc Baby, and he jokingly added, 'When they showed up, I was wearing a red Nike tech.' Adam22 also hinted that he would provide details later on the podcast, saying he saved the story for content instead of discussing it live. However, his failure to appear on the latest episode fuelled fan speculation that something more serious had occurred. Wack 100 insisted Adam22 'ain't got no nothing' and was not a flight risk. He also denied involvement in the case himself, pushing back on allegations that he had helped law enforcement. Responding to Big U's accusation that Wack knew about the raid beforehand, he said, 'Oh, you a goofy. How the f*ck you didn't know?' As of now, neither Adam22 nor federal authorities have issued a public statement confirming any arrest.

Rollin' 60s Crips leader Big U turns himself in, denies charges in dederal RICO case
Eugene Henley Jr., better known as Big U, has turned himself in to authorities following a federal RICO indictment. The influential figure in the Rollin' 60s Crips posted an Instagram video late Wednesday, documenting his surrender while riding in a van with his family. He maintained his innocence, calling the charges "bull crap." In the video, Big U asked for prayers and insisted he has always focused on uplifting his family and community. He dismissed the allegations, saying, 'This is straight trash.' He also thanked his supporters for standing by him during this time. Big U pointed fingers at Wack 100 and 600, claiming they played a role in his indictment. He alleged that 600 was with police when his home was raided and accused Wack 100 of working with the FBI and city officials to block him from receiving money. "People don't understand what the FBI does to Black men who try to help their community," Big U said. "This is the price of being Black and trying to help others in their neighborhood." According to federal documents, the charges include murder, human trafficking, and extortion. The indictment claims that in January 2021, Big U allegedly drove with another defendant and fatally shot an aspiring rapper, later dumping the body in the desert off the interstate. During a press conference Wednesday, the U.S. Attorney's Office confirmed that 10 individuals were arrested, including part-time rappers Bricc Baby and Luce Cannon. However, Big U insisted he has no connection to them and predicted they would testify against him. Despite the serious charges, Big U stood firm on his innocence, declaring he "did nothing wrong" and is confident he will be cleared.

Blueface spotted with multiple new tattoos in latest prison photo, sports YSL logo on forehead
Rapper Blueface, known for his distinctive tattoos, has reportedly added more artwork to his face while serving time in prison. A recent photo of the rapper, who was sentenced last August to four years for a probation violation, shows him sporting a fresh set of tattoos, with one on his forehead that appears to be the YSL logo. New picture of Blueface in prison surface — SAY CHEESE! 👄🧀 (@SaycheeseDGTL) The image was shared by Blueface's manager, Wack 100, who clarified in a TMZ report that the rapper is voluntarily participating in what he described as "social experimentation." Wack 100 also mentioned that Blueface has been under the protection of a friend serving a life sentence, along with support from gang members. Despite the added tattoos, Blueface's actions have reportedly led to his transfer to a level three facility. The rapper's tattoo journey continues to draw attention, not just from fans but also from his family. Last week, his mother, Karlissa Saffold Harvey, posted a photo on Instagram showing her son with another inmate, captioned "Deliverance at its finest." However, not all family feedback has been positive. Saffold Harvey has expressed frustration on social media over her son's choices while in prison, urging him to consider the impact on his children and to "pull yourself together." In another layer to his controversial ink, last December Blueface revealed that he had tattooed the name of Chrisean Rock—a name that holds significant personal importance—on his face. While Rock has an infant son, Blueface has consistently denied paternity claims.
