TI VS Kanye West
Posted in Kanye West, T.I. on the December 26, 2008
TI takes front and center on the other side of the double-sided cover for Rap Up magazine. The 28-year old rapper talks about the biggest year of his career, his impending jail sentence, the effect it will have on his family and how the King always gets his way. Just like the other cover star of the magazine, Christina Milian, TI had some fighting words too for Kanye West. When asked what it would take for him to be conceited like Kanye West, he said “Selling a billion. At about a billion, I think I’d be pretty hard to deal with.” He also talks about winning awards saying “No disrespect to Kanye, but that kinda stuff just don’t mean nothing to me. Whether or not I win an award, I mean that’s nice, but at the end of the day I understand that I’m a man. What being a man means to me is not defined by an award or an amount of records sold.” Oh well, I’ve had enough with Kanye anyway. Bring on TI!
T.I. Can Vote
Posted in T.I. on the November 4, 2008
For a convicted felon, T.I. is really good at reading the fine print of the law. Supposedly, he’s not allowed to vote due to his conviction but rapper, who pleaded guilty to weapons charges last year, found a loophole in the Georgia law book which allows a convicted felon the right to vote if they’re not currently serving probation or a prison sentence. Since T.I. isn’t expected to be sentenced until next year, he can still exercise his civic duty. Before authorities could change their mind, T.I. already hit a polling place in Atlanta to lock in his ballot because as he says, in America, you can have whatever you like.
TI and Rihanna Live Life
Posted in Live Music, Rihanna, T.I. on the October 25, 2008
It looks like there’s a lot more than just making videos going on in the set of TI’s new music video ‘Live Your Life’ featuring Rihanna. According to US Weekly, Chris Brown was there during the shoot and cuddled up to the sexy Barbadian singer between takes. Also, during a dance scene, TI accidentally hit Rihanna but she was a trooper about it. An onlooker reports “She just laughed, rubbed her face and rejoined the singing.” Well, what can she do? It’s not like her boyfriend looks like the guy who can stand up to TI. We’ve got the clean cut Chris against the convicted TI. It’s pretty obvious she just had to brush it off.
More Work for TI
Posted in MTV, Movies, Rapper, T.I. on the June 7, 2008
Rapper TI may be convicted on gun possession charges but that’s not stopping him from getting jobs, post-jail sentencing. First, there were reports on the MTV reality show that will follow him on his 1000 hours of community service before heading to prison. Now, according to reports, he has a 3-picture deal with Screen Gems. The partnership will launch the crime drama ‘Bone Deep’ which will co-star Matt Dillon. The film is about a group of bank robbers who pull off a daring high-risk heist and are dragged into one last job by a freshly paroled pal. I’m placing all my chips in that TI will play the freshly paroled character. He’s bound to have some experience to pull from.
Yung Joc Gets Charged
Posted in Photography, Rap Music, Rumor, Scandal, T.I., Yung Joc on the December 28, 2007
Another rapper has joined the ranks of T.I. as Yung Joc has been charged with carrying a concealed weapon after cops say they found a loaded semi-automatic gun in his carry-on bag at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport. Who the heck carries a guy through the airport?
Joc, whose real name is Jasiel Robinson, was arrested early Sunday morning just before he was to board a Delta flight. He was attempting to go through a regular security checkpoint when police found the gun and ammo. Cops say that Joc told them he didn’t know that the gun was there. Right. And he didn’t check just why his bag was heavy?
ATF Agents Search Home Of Atlanta Rapper T.I.
Posted in Music, Music People, News, Photography, Rap Music, T.I. on the October 15, 2007
Federal authorities searched the home of Grammy-winning rapper T.I. on Saturday, hours before he was expected to win big at the BET Hip-Hop Awards being taped downtown. The Law in ATLANTA play’s no GAMES. Clifford Harris knows that so, he has to be careful because his not in CALI. I say pray because we only have one higher judge who is almighty above the heavens. I think maybe T.I. should just worry about what those people are going to find in his house. larelda, if there actually was a god I don’t think this drug dealing pimp would have the celebrity status that he does. Well none of these guys are clean and it’s only a matter as the saying goes in a few places that until not proven guilty are thieve cannot be pronounced as so and therefore is a gentleman but once caught then he can be given that title.
