T.I. is opening up more and more about his new album that's dropping in August. He talked to Rolling Stone magazine in NYC recently where he played some tracks from Paper Trail, and also opened up more about his current legal battles. You know I got it for you below.
If you're like me then I'm sure you've had his new song "No Matter What" on repeat in your iPod. But if you thought that was his lead single to the new album you'd be wrong. Cliff told RS that his official single “What’s Up, What’s Happening” will be out in a couple weeks. The track, which was produced by Danja, is a bass-heavy club track full of shout-outs to haters who thought the MC’s legal troubles would sideline him. Could I [Gyant] be on that track? Let's hope SOHH.
Although I don't identify myself as being a hater - I'm more of a truth teller - I'd take a shout from T.I. on a song any day.
But if you thought that T.I. was happy to be out and about and off his pseudo -house arrest you'd b be wrong. Tip confessed that with his speaking engagements at schools to fulfill his 1,000 hours of court-ordered community service, that he actually misses be at the house in some ways.
Here's more of on his new album:
On “Collect Call,” he raps about all the fair-weather friends who disappear when things get hot over an R&B groove. “Let My Beat Pound” is a bass-heavy trunk-rattler produced by J.R. Rotem with a robotozed hook that’s meant to intimidate others on the road: “My trunk sounds like a midget trying to get up out of there,” he drawls. “You Ain’t Missing Nothing” is a dubious message to those in prison: With jazzy, soul sample, Tip promises “The time will do itself, all you gotta do is show up.” On “Sitting on Top of the World,” which features a hook by B.O.B., the MC reflects on his path to rap fame. And on “I’m Illin” he claims to be “the hottest nigga since Tupac.” Of course, after promoting the album, which comes out August 12, Tip will still have to serve a year in jail. “It’s a bitter pill to swallow,” he says. “But I’ve got a lot of water.” [Source]
If T.I. does in fact have to serve those 12 months in prison [which I now believe he probably won't] you know he's gonna have one royal send off that will be the talk of the town for months to follow.
After being the number one truth teller in all that happened with Clifford Harris last year I now firmly believe that "this man ain't dead, this man ain't done, this man ain't scared, this man ain't run, here he stands (yeah)....."
I can tell you that T.I. and Kanye were in the studio late Saturday night/early Sunday morning working on new song for Paper Trail.
And speaking of Kanye....
I met him Sunday night, and the man was cool as cool could be. Check the video:
Talk to y'all lata,

KANYE has always been cool you just a hater... not a truth teller... loser... plus all people who shout out first is wankstas just like gunot killer
What up Gyant.
I'm glad to see your post is relevant today.
Was Kanye and his bodyguard and everyone else in there hating on you for having a camera? That's what it looks like to me.

Somebody put this snitch n***a in jail befire he rats somebody else out. This is just the perfect follow up to BET and the media helping black people kill each other, now show them how snitching is the cool thing to do. T.I. is gonna get bodied in front of a bunch of school kids, and then his 'unreleased' volumes will make his label money for the next 2 or 3 years. This retard trying to compare himself to 2Pac is a reason by iteslf for him to get done. I hate to say it, but you kids are all sheep of the white man leading you to the slaughter so you can be a real gangsta like your favorite wanna be rapper who is really a snitch. Smarten up folks.
If you didn't understand the subliminal - TI is a snitch, and if he gets away without jail time - then it's been proven. Silently.
So the big question is - if TI walks - then who killed his buddy? If TI is seriously gonna get off with this 'PUBLIC SERVICE' shit even though nobody in ATL wants him in their public schools, so where's the guy he ratted off? Who killed TI's bum chum? This is the question we want the answer to.
Can't wait for the new track to drop...!! Take it back to I'm Serious, Trap Muzik....please. In Da Streets Vol 1 to 4....
Jay-Z Sets Up Educational Fund For Sean Bell’s Children
Jay-Z has established educational funds for shooting victim Sean Bell’s children. The hip-hop mogul and Bell’s fiance Nicole Paultre (who later changed her surname to Bell), along with her attorney, worked out the details involving the charitable offer months ago, according to a source close to the rapper. It’s not clear yet the particular details of the agreement, but it is assumed the Brooklyn icon’s contribution will help send both of Bell’s children to college, should they choose to go. A New York judge acquitted the three detectives who fired the 51 shots that took Bell’s life and wounded two of his friends after the group left Bell’s bachelor party in Queens. A number of rallies have been held to protest the controversial verdict. The highly-charged trial was followed closely around the country by many and prior to and after the case, a number of rappers, including Papoose, Joell Ortiz, and The Game, voiced their support for Bell and his family in song.
finally...am get wat a wanna hear from tip..am great fan but he hasn been doin want am expectin from urban legen ..but paper trail s gonnna b a hell of a album so a beliv ..no matta wat s a classic
Man fuck T.I.! That nigga IS a snitch! Last night, I was chilling at CasaHerbz, getting smoked out on the couch with Tia and Tamara and the next thing I knew, my living room windows were being shattered and niggaz in black fatigues started swinging into the room. I flipped over the couch and returned fire while my security team opened up on them niggaz and killed about 6 of them. It wasn't until after the gunfire that they announced that they were POLICE and that they were serving a search warrant on my house...
Come to find out, T.I. snitched on my ass and told the cops that I, also, had a small arsenal in my house, along with a few kilos of yayo. Shit, but you know Herbz is smarter than the next nigga because my shit was clean: The guns are registered to me through a Class III firearms dealer license, and the yayo is only accessible from my neighbor's basement. After them niggaz wrote me a misdemeanor ticket for the blunt I was smoking, they carried their dead fellow officers out, and left me a blank government check to fix my windows...
...Since they confiscated my blunt, I had Tia pull out a couple nuggets that she hid in a dark, warm place and I rolled them up in the blank check and we got blazed as fuck with a lil help from Cobb County P.D.
Peace to all the White Niggaz on the grind.
Fuck T.I.'s snitch ass
--OG Matt Herbz--
T.i. is still the King of the South
TI always comes with that fire, sometimes money does talk, niggas aint always snitchin when they walk or get a good plea. www.Ibarfly.com
its not sudo its "pseudo".. and its "danja" not danga
no, i don't think he will reference you on the track.. and you do realize that everytime i read 'gyant' it reads like 'gayant'
For the judge and the dea who let tip off,I wonder how much money he paid the judge and the dea to get off his charges?
judge who let this ride should be ashame of urself.
so every other person who has the same charges as tip i think they should get the same treatment as him don't u think so?after all he bregging about it u see the mixtape he put out a mixtape 0428.T.I.-Thoughts_Of_A_8_Time_Felon_(Presented_By _Trapaholics)-2008-GroupRip
This the bregging shit u let this fool get away with..
ya'll kids looking up to a snitch ass person
yea u see how fast they got the guy who kill tip friend he knew who it was the whole time.
my rant
@ dadirtiest. Man you need a tissue fo real. Why all the hating. Snitch maybe he did maybe he didn't but money can get you off a lot of charges. But you probably wouldn't know about money or charges. I swear everybody wanna hear that gun talk and gangster shit but when someone actually does what they talk about all the so called fans say he's stupid. Give the guy some repect for dealing with this shit instead of trying to bring em down.

LOL @ Matt Herbz... and the part about him flipping the couch over... Lawd he watches too much TV.
As for TI, I doubt he will do over 6 months prison time, if any. Calling out haters is not a positive message for youth groups. If Paper Trail is a good album (better than the last one)and his a$$ stays out of trouble -- I'm happy.
Who brings cameras to the club?
KANYE SUCKS IF HE TOLD ON T.I BECAUSE I AM T.I 'S BIGGEST FAN AND I CAN'T WAIT TILL THE NEW ALBUM COMES OUT.!
