T.I. Has the Best Jail Cell Ever

11/13/07, 11:09 am EST


In his first official video statement since he was arrested and charged with a whole litany of weapons felonies, T.I. is obviously a man worn down by his legal struggle. In this lo-fi home movie, the rapper saunters into frame like Hugh Hefner before taking a seat on a couch that is probably worth more than our car. Imprisoned in his gargantuan mansion, a cigar-clutching T.I. tells his fans that this is “a very trying time right now.” T.I. makes sure to say all the right things, including a “thank you to the judge, thank you to the judge” for allowing the rapper to be under house arrest “instead of, you know, the clear alternative.” T.I.’s referring to the Big House, but staring out into T.I.’s cavernous den, it’s pretty clear that T.I. is in The Big House, except in this prison, he’s allowed to walk around in a cushy brown bathrobe as opposed to an orange jumper. Plus, no communal showers!

How is T.I. spending his time under house arrest? “I got a lot time on my hands; doing a lot of reading, doing a lot of writing, working on my next album, it’s called Paper Trail.” Rumor has it T.I. just finished Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and is itching to get started on The Prisoner of Azkaban. As for his “not guilty” plea, T.I. “looks forward to being exonerated on all charges.” He also tells fans to stay tuned to StreetCred.com because there will be more messages, and until then, “don’t believe every thang you read in the papers.” Especially that part about the Potter books.

I’m Illy cause all ya’ll bitches haten on this man. That you really don’t know. He is a very good performer, music is hot . A person that made a mistake and stood up as a man and id not run. God have bless him with his talent and to be able to have the money to take of his family the way any and every man wants to. This is all you people have to say. That is what’s wrong with the world now we are so judgemental and critical. I was raised to mind my business , to make sure i’m together and i have things straight with myself before i make any comments about someone else. I think T.I. is a good man. Far as he should Meet some Skinheads in the ally. You ignorant fool. How about you meet a bunch of black men in a ally. you would run like hell. you would piss on yourself. we don’t play that shit no more baby. calm your comments. T.I. my message to you keep doing you boo, keep your head up high and stay strong.Do your bid i’m sure you are in alot of people prayers cause you in minds get out go home to your family. I’m waiting for another bomb ass album.

Think about it first mike vick and then t.i yall is just crazy. TIP is not suppose to be gone we need him.

FREE TI, CLIFFORD,Joseph harris J.R

2K | 9/6/2008, 12:36 pm EST

T.I. being in house arrest is just crazy and better. If you noticed his new album single Whatever you like was actually made at his crib and the other videos for this year. The fucking news flash is that he isn’t in jail. Paper trail or Prison Trail. Grand Hustle Partner we still your fans.

~anna~ | 9/5/2008, 12:10 am EST

people seriously like to talk alot of shit but to me it smells like haterism leave the man alone like u never fucked shit it before c’ mon now luv u T.I. stay strong n keep them beats going cause we luv it

Latoya Horton | 4/27/2008, 4:32 pm EST

I reallk think that no one man is perfect we are reaching for that star. So the haters gone hate or they wont graduate. I would take this as a lesson learned. Aint nothing nobody can do about it.

yall forgot that T.I. didnt purchase them weapons himself but was allegedly doing it thru his bodyguard.

krissy | 1/26/2008, 8:38 pm EST

T.I has so start thinking like a black man with money. You are going to get watched even harder now just because you got cash baby, you got to be smater than this now!!!

bruce | 1/13/2008, 8:06 am EST

T.I needs to meet some real skinheads in a dark alley.

khissy | 12/18/2007, 12:21 pm EST

yeah i think that t.i. should had one of his homeboys to purchase that gun and not him if he knew he had a criminal background ….but anyway it’s all cool hope u still maintain as my biggest fan and dont change one bit!!

ShazzyZang | 11/14/2007, 5:35 pm EST

Excuse me for being old fashioned, but T.I.’s sentence is not a punishment. Personally, I think he’s got it way better than 98% of the population, who are allowed to exit their homes. I hope that T.I. hasn’t been bitching about his punishment, because then chances are I would not only dislike him as an artist but as a person as well. Nobody who commits a crime deserves to be as comfortable as he is. And by the way, who the hell cares if he’s reading “Harry Potter”? I hope someone alerts me when the Justice system starts being fair.

Metal Shawn G | 11/14/2007, 2:29 am EST

let me get out of politics. how about something about T.I.? I don’t know this guy, I’m out of shit on this subject.

I’ll do a test . . . testing, testing, 1 2 3

Metal Shawn G | 11/14/2007, 12:33 am EST

Who the fuck is T.I.?
Even still, I’ll bet 100 bucks he’s an asshole and deserves to go to jail!

Chris Price | 11/13/2007, 8:41 pm EST

“Rumor has it T.I. just finished Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and is itching to get started on The Prisoner of Azkaban.”
