This is getting uglier than Shabba Ranks and Wanda from “In Living Color” having a baby.
Bricc Baby and Luce Cannon just lit a match under an already explosive case. Before I continue, let us establish who we’re talking ’bout.
Bricc Baby is a well-known rapper on the Los Angeles rap scene. He was born in 1988, one of the best years in Hip-Hop history. He uses social media extensively and also does a lot interviews—simply put, he does a lot of talking.
We’ll get back to that. Luce Cannon is basically the same thing, but let me skip all the formalities.
Both Luce Cannon and Bricc Baby were arrested as part of a federal RICO indictment targeting the Rollin’ 60s Neighborhood Crips and presumed leader, Big U.
They are currently cellmates in a Los Angeles detention facility. This is crazy because of their prior beefs and the charges they face.
See where this is going?
There are loud whispers of snitching, accusations of extortion and one of the craziest RICO indictments the West Coast has seen in a while. The digital streets are burning and Big U is right in the center of it.
Bricc Baby’s name is getting tossed around in the ugliest of ways. Snitching is the accusation. People are pointing fingers, suggesting that somebody has had something to say to the feds.
Luce Cannon has denied being involved in the RICO, but he did something damaging to Big U’s case. He told the world about the day PnB Rock was killed.
“It was me and Big U sitting there when it happened… I wish I could have just told him like, ‘Bro just give up the jewelry and we get it back to you later,'” Luce said, adding that he knew the folks who “melt the ice.” Oh man.
What are the chances that ol’ U is going to be there at the same time that a defiant rapper is killed?
It doesn’t end there. The feds allege that the Rollin’ 60s aren’t just a gang. They charge they are an extortion network. They claim they pressure artists and others into buying back their own stolen goods. You should already know about the one murder case involving a young rapper named Ray Shaun Williams.
Bro was signed to Big U but was later found dead in Las Vegas. His body was dumped. The indictment paperwork says Big U tried to pay folks off to keep quiet.

You already know where this is headed.
You guessed it. Nipsey Hussle’s death is slowly getting caught up in this. The streets say the tension between Big U and Nipsey was deeper than rap.
They say, “There’s rumors that Big U put the battery in people’s back” and that certain 60s felt Nip getting too big for the program. Did U create the environment that led to Nipsey’s death?
There is more.
Even Quando Rondo’s name popped up. His cousin reportedly got clipped over something 60s-related. A week later, Quando disassociated from the set. That man did something we never heard of—left the set.
Now, it makes some sense to me.
Big U has pleaded not guilty. and Big U has officially been charged with racketeering, one murder, and a stack of extortion-related offenses. And apparently, there’s a woman—a Grammy-winning one—somewhere in this case that the feds might be leaning on for a flip. Who could that be?
Stay tuned. The streets are watching, but the paperwork doesn’t lie. Or does it?
