LFTG Radio
“Good morning and Godspeed. It’s ya boy Elliott Carterr reporting live from the gutter.” LFTG Radio isn’t here to coddle the culture. We’re here to confront it. Rooted in truth and reporting from the real, we pull back the curtain on power, pain, and propaganda — straight from the streets to the global stage. This is where mainstream media won’t go. Where the gutter meets geopolitics. Where unfiltered voices challenge the narrative, and real stories refuse to stay buried. We’re not chasing clout — we’re chasing clarity. From the courtroom to the corner store, from Africa to Rikers, we ask what others won’t. No spin. No sellout. Just straight facts from the frontlines. This ain’t no fairytale — this is LFTG.
