T.I. Responds to 50's new Cartoon...

And here is what T.I. had to say about it according to XXL Magazine:

“I haven’t seen it but, we all know dude,” he said of Fif. “We all know his intentions, we all know his motives. We’ve seen this too many times before. You know, I play chess, not checkers, you dig? I ain’t even trippin’ off of that. At the end of the day, I’m more worried or concerned about what a man says to me or what a man does to me, not what he says or does in the eyes of the public.”
I am Happy that T.I. has never fell into that trap. I am a T.I., Jeezy and Rick Ross ... But Dam Rick You ain't see that pothole in the road.

T.I. MAY BE THE NEW PRESIDENT OF ATLAMNTIC

I personally thought that this was a complete joke, but there has been some recent chatter about T.I. replacing Julie Greenwald as the President of Atlantic Records. When MTV asked the rapper about it, he said, “It’s among the realm of possibilities”. What the heck? I have mad love for T.I. but I highly doubt that Atlantic Records is considering a “jail bird” to takeover as the head moncho.

T.I. INKS DEAL W/ AMARE STOUDIMIRE

T.I is in talks to ink a deal with Phoenix Suns ball player Amare Stoudemire to manage ballers who wanna be rappers – and we all know how ballers are just itching to showcase their ‘skills’. This is should be a smooth deal for T.I’s Grand Hustle joining with Amare’s Hypocalypto Records – who already has an artist “Juice” waiting on the shelf. T.I wants to slide into eventually sports management and Amare has artists he wants to groom. This is a smart move for Tip to keep the money stream flowing.

Don’t expect to see anything happening in the next 12 months since Tip is scheduled for jail in March – unless he plans on getting ‘special privileges’ to handle his “business”.

MTV SET TO DEBUT " T.I.'s ROAD TO REDEMPTION"

As he begins counting down the days to his impending March 2009 sentencing for weapons charges, Grammy-winning superstar T.I. finds himself at a remarkable crossroads. At the very apex of his career, he’s facing up to thirty years of jail time for an arrest stemming from his earlier life. However, as part of a deal worked out between his lawyers and the federal government, if he completes an amazing 1000 hours of community service during the year ending this March, that sentence may be reduced. At 27, finding himself at the very high- and low-point of his adult life, he’s seeking redemption in helping others avoid the mistakes he made. In the new docu-series “T.I.’s Road To Redemption: 45 Days To Go” cameras follow T.I.’s efforts to save himself by saving others. “T.I.’s Road To Redemption: 45 Days To Go” is a moving title. Each week, the title will change to reflect the amount of time left to his sentencing. The final episode will air shortly after T.I.’s fate is revealed. In order to communicate his message, he has to give each teenager a tough love lesson in life and show them the consequences of what could happen if they continue down the wrong path. “T.I.’s Road To Redemption: 45 Days To Go” will premiere on Tuesday, February 10 at 9:00PM (ET/PT). Subsequent episodes will air in the show’s regular timeslot at 9:30pm (ET/PT).
