As Tip readies the release of his F#ck Da City up mixtape after the ball drops this New Year’s Eve, he lets loose the cover art for the upcoming project. The cover looks like you just walked onto the set of Cloverfield.
T.I. chopped it up with MTV about the type of records that fans can expect on his upcoming album, Trouble Man. Tip explains how the theme of the project is based on events that he’s personally experienced and classifies the music as “Intellectually ignorant.”
After we heard about the third single (“I’m Flexin’”, “Here Ye, Hear Ye” ) from T.I.’s forthcoming album, Trouble Man, yesterday, “The Kang” lights up his fans with the aforementioned “Pyro,” The track is produced by Two Band Geeks.

Rapper T.I. is almost a free man. The emcee/actor is being let out of prison a month earlier than originally expected (September 29th) and will be transferred to a halfway house on August 31st where he’ll serve the remaining month of his sentence.This being his second jail sentence in just the last couple years, we really hope Tip can stay out of trouble this time and get back to making music asap.
“Can’t say enough about how special of a woman I have. It takes a lot to endure the worst of times and still stay grounded during the best of times. She’s been able to do so for as long as I can remember. For all that and more, I just adore her in every way. I love her spirit, her heart, her integrity and her loyalty. She’s the love of my life and the girl of my dreams. I’ve heard so much about it being hard for true love to exist in the fast lanes of Hollywood, when dudes can’t stay respectfully committed and chicks can’t stay out their man’s pockets. But somehow she makes it easy, and we’ve never had those problems. Some women can’t keep up with their men, and others can’t seem to slow theirs down. She’s shown that she can do both in grand fashion. Via XXL
The L.A. County District Attorney’s office tells TMZ the case was dropped because Tiny completed 24 sessions of a certified drug diversion program in Georgia.
T.I. and Tameka were pulled over and arrested on Sunset Boulevard back in September. They were booked for possession of a controlled substance.
The D.A. dropped the case against T.I. since he was already headed back to prison … the arrest alone was enough to violate his federal probation.
T.I.’s wife Tiny confirms the two were in a room together during regular visiting hours at Arkansas State Prison when Tiny put her hands on the T.I.P of his.. well you get the point.
According to prison guidelines, inmates are allowed to kiss and embrace at the beginning and at the end of a visit as well as hold hands but “the inmate’s hands must remain in plain view of Visiting Room staff at all times.”
Tiny tells TMZ T.I. was immediately reprimanded and sent to a “Special Housing Unit” which consists of more security and less freedom.
Tiny says she hasn’t spoken to T.I. since the incident — but she’s hopeful she’ll be allowed to visit again soon … as long as she keeps her hand to herself.
