Rapper T.I., who attained fame after the release of his multi-platinum, Grammy nominated album “King” in 2006 (and role in the movie ATL), released his sixth album Tuesday entitled “Paper Trail.”
T.I. attributes the title to actually writing down his lyrics for this album and not relying strictly on memorization, a practice of his contemporaries, most notably (and successfully), Lil’ Wayne. Since smashing onto the rap scene five years ago, he has been dubbed by many as “The Jay-Z of the South” and promises this to be his hardest hitting album yet.
T.I. has been known better lately for his legal troubles, pleading guilty to federal weapons charges this past February. He was sentenced guilty and ordered to perform 1,000 hours of community service and serve a year behind bars. The service should be no problem; T.I.’s well known in his hometown city of Atlanta as being a proud humanitarian.
The jail sentence, however, was surely a downer but T.I. hopes he will become a better man from serving his sentence. He’s learned from his mistakes and doesn’t want to become another Tupac Shakur, a similar rapper of reverence who was cut down well before his time. So best wishes to T.I. in getting your personal life in order and releasing another successful album.
