News : Adam22 Addresses Wack 100's Claim He Was Arrested In Connection With Big U Case

Adam22 has addressed claims made by Wack 100 that he was recently arrested as part of the racketeering case against Big U and other alleged Rollin’ 60s Neighborhood Crips.

Speaking to TMZ on Thursday (March 27) at an airport in Burbank, California, the No Jumper founder denied that he was arrested by federal agents connection with the case.

“Wack’s got an overactive imagination, to say the least. I was not picked up by the feds,” he clarified. “But they did pay a visit to my residence and my lawyer spoke to them, and they made it clear that I’m not in any kind of trouble right now, I’m not being investigated.

Adam did, however, reveal that federal authorities seized a particular document from his home that relates to their case.

“But what they did want to get their hands on, which is kinda crazy, is the cease and desist that we received from Big U maybe a year ago that requested we remove a podcast appearance in which Luce Cannon said Big U had prior knowledge of Nipsey Hussle‘s death before it actually happened.

“The feds were interested in that, which is very interesting to us because that makes us think: why are they curious about that? There is nothing about that in the original indictment or criminal complaint. So it’s very suspicious, it really makes us wonder what the feds are investigating exactly when it comes to Big U.

“But as far as myself, no, I wasn’t locked up.”

Earlier this week, Wack 100, who is a frequent co-host of No Jumper, phoned into the show to claim that Adam22 had been arrested as part of the investigation into Big U’s alleged “Mafia-like” criminal enterprise.

“I just called my attorney and tried to get him down there so Adam don’t be doing no telling. They came and got him this morning, they doubled back,” said the music manager, whose clients include The Game, Blueface and 6ix9ine.

He added: “I don’t know what they on him about, but they on him about something. I don’t know if they were trying to get something out of him.”

No Jumper was mentioned in the gang indictment that led to the arrest of alleged Crips leader Big U, along with 18 others including podcast regulars Luce Cannon and Bricc Baby.

The sprawling case includes charges of racketeering, extortion, human trafficking, fraud and the 2021 murder of an aspiring rapper who had dropped a diss song aimed at Big U (real name Eugene Henley).

On Instagram Stories following the indictment, Adam22 defended No Jumper‘s involvement with those arrested.

“I see a lot of people saying that 22 is the reason why Bricc got caught up. Fuck outta here!” he said. “22, you know what I do. I put people in position, put them on the podcast, give them jobs, help them make legal money.

“A lot of the shit that people are getting caught up for — especially with Bricc — I’m not seeing anything that says anything about stuff that he’s done in the last two years since he’s been fucking with us.”
