FIRST! I bet 1,000,000,000 He gets into some more S#!@. He will never learn.
Justice is always for “sale” in America! You have to make sure that when you commit a crime, you have the stacks for a great team of lawyers to defend your dumb *****!
I can’t wait to see all those public service announcments T.I. is going to make about guns and violence. Yeah, right!!
Stupid *****!!!!!!!!
he looks good in that suit.
“PeepEye
Justice is always for “sale” in America! You have to make sure that when you commit a crime, you have the stacks for a great team of lawyers to defend your dumb *****!”
YOU SOOOO RIGHT.
I LOVE HIS ACCENT!!!
I don’t 100% believe him though.
hmmm….thanking God….how original…..I’ll bet he wasn’t thinking about God when he was trying to buy those *****ault weapons……
…. pray he stays out of trouble cause it will be all over for him for sure, you don’y need the street that make T.I. God blessed you, take the hint.
@ network guru
it’s a god given right to bear arms.
yep, he’ll ***** up again before his sentencing. I hope he doesn’t but….hopefully, he’ll learn his lesson and not do dumb ***** no more.
I was reading an article about the banning of fully automatic weapons being unconstitutional, and if I am not mistaken the NRA is fighting to overturn that law. It wouldn’t have helped him out because he is a felon though.
@network guru..co-sign. i heard him do his “speech” this morning on the radio and it sounded so un-sincere like he was reading or had memorized it. You know God wasn’t no where in the picture when he was trying to do his “purchase”.
@Born
…. God blessed you, take the hint.
LOL, you are so right, but many times God has to slap the hell of some people to get them to do right! Whop them on the head with a big 2 x 4 stick!!
T.I. escaped a bullet here. He’s lucky that his lawyers want their hefty legal fees and the court wants the $100,000 fine money that he will have to pay, otherwise his little skinny ***** would be rotting in jail for many years to come. If he was a broke brotha, that’s exactly where he would be.
I bet the judge got a little “bribe” for letting T.I. have a second chance!! I don’t even have to bet, I know he did.
i can’t see bcuz im @ work..
@ dominique- he ALWAYS looks good in a suit
Big things poppin……
another talanted brotha in jail…
another child without their father.
and he’s really lucky.
smh
@ bree
Girl i know,T.I is so handsome.
SMH
What this ***** is a convicted felon and he was out buying guns? You know damn well you cant own a gun as a convicted felon! 1,500 hours of community service then he gets his sentence at the end of this year? I aint from the deep south but I’m gonna write a letter to the courts!
First this ***** is gonna make two more *****ty ***** deep south rap albums before he’s formally sentenced, Then you know damn well he’s gonna ***** up again because he’s an ignorant deep south *****!
@ Its6amhoGetOut
Leave that snitch ethic back in 2007, Pimpin’.
@ Circa-81,
***** are you crazy? First I aint from the south so I was never in to that “stop snitchin” campaign *****.
This is one of my opportunities to finally stop *****ty ***** deep south wannabe rap from *****in’ up radio.
I’m gonna start a new campaign, “Ban Coonin’ fo Dolla’s” yeah i like that *****! Everybody on bossip who wants a free t-shirt just leave me an email!
I’ll put that ***** on the front of the shirt and the pictures of every wack ***** ugly big greasy lipped deep south rapper on the back, So what if they try and sue me, them *****s will be either dead, broke or in jail before the ***** ever hits trial!
6am, new money source!
@Its6amhoGetOut
I ain’t one of you youngin’s so I really don’t know about some stop snitchin’ campaign. It’s the priciple’s that you receive growing up. *****ody respect’s snake, backstabbing snitches or thieves. And as far as your disrpect for the brotha’s downsouth go; it looks like you fall into the category of “coonin” with those remarks about southern dudes. Let them get their money, Pimp, that’s not your culture so you wouldn’t understand it unless you had a diplomatic mind and an attitude that didn’t condemn people because they are successful. Leave the jealousy. It’s not them that make black people look bad it’s the fools like you in society that make those stupid blanket statements because for some reason you think they make you look bad. NY is done for the moment….it will be back soon. Stop whining….and for that matter stop snitching. You can get yourself in a world of trouble like that.
He straight dodge a bullet let’s hope he’s learned his lesson and changes his mentality because if he doesn’t change his way of thinking he will find himself into another jam such as this! I hope it’s not the case I really liked him in ATL and think he could really do something in the movie business!
@ Circa-81, so if I see a 16 year old knock 65 year old in the head and steal her purse I’m not supposed to call the cops? TI is representative of a deep south *****ty rap culture, yeah he’s successful but he’s also a convicted felon buying machine guns and silencers, what do you think he was gonna do with all those guns, hang them on his wall and and just display them? You seem to be the ignorant one just minding your own business while another black person gets killed by all those illegal guns in TI’s possession which you know damn well were gonna wind up on the streets eventually. So miss me with that “old man swagger” bull***** you just typed a minute ago, ***** yeah I’d snitch on a ***** to save a life or get a ***** what he deserves if he hurts another person, dont be stupid! And to respond to you about “coonin” deep south *****s get a lil money and the first thing they do is go buy the dumbest ***** Ive ever seen, grills, long white tees, ***** for their ugly babymommas and 5 cars to park across the lawn of a $40,000 house.
You understand what I’m saying old man? ***** the south, ***** you and your ol skool code of conduct and if it wasnt for ol skool *****s like you and your fake ***** code of the streets these *****s wouldnt be in the shape they’re in now and definetly wouldnt have the same attitudes, because of you old *****s abandoning your kids and adopting the ***** youre trying to sell in here your offspring grew up the way they did thinking *****in’ ugly and fat *****es then leaving once they get pregnant is ok.
Remember old man, your generation gave birth to these nothing ***** *****s, now every black person in the deep south who has an education, a job and a future has to reap what youve sewn. I’d be *****in’ embar*****ed. Gather up every multiple babymomma who aint doing ***** and her broke ***** *****s and seperate them from the rest of the upwardly mobile black people anywhere and let them procreate and ruin their lives as much as they want, and oh yeah, limit welfare to two years maximum!
Understand what I just typed old man? Sorry i’m not from the area or generation of sit back and let *****s be *****s.
6AM for *****in’ president 2016!
@ Circa-81, sorry to step all over your “gators”
6am I love you all, but never try and school me when I’m spouting the truth!
Good for TI I hope the youngin learns from this ish. We don’t need another brotha in jail! If that stuff for the kids is real and touches one young mind it will be worth it! And so what if he got the money to keep himself out of jail my mums gave me the good sense to keep me out of jail too so I (and you!) don’t need to get mad…
@ 6am I dont agree with you king but I respect your argument… Way I see it bad people should get punished, stupid people should get taught, both can commit crimes. Jail aint the only answer…
@Circa-81, you and these rappers need to seperate reality from a rap video.
Uncle Ben, if youre a convicted felon and youre out buying machine guns when you know damn well you arent supposed to have them, then ***** you and and any excuse you may have.
Thats the problem now, ignorant *****s are too stupid to learn how to settle dissagreements without having to get a gun, thats what courts are for, besides having a gun makes a 5′5 125lb ***** like TI think he’s 6′4 220lbs, you are what you are deal with it.
6am, the right answers at the right time, maybe I’ll go and give lectures at all the deep south High Schools.
@ circa-81 You’re 100% right, that man’s Second Amendment Constitutional rights were violated!!! Stand up GUY!!
**NO DOUBT HE SNITCHED**
There’s no way you can face a federal case with a mandatory 5 yr minimum sentence and walk away doing 1yr and community service. . .use your *****ing brain people.
F TI. I’m sick of this! His ignorant 10lb ***** should be locked up for at least 10 yrs. He’s a glorified uneducated idiot and I have absolutely no respect for him or his music. He should be rotting in jail like Remy, Foxxy, & Vick!
@ The Truth
There’s no way you can face a federal case with a mandatory 5 yr minimum sentence and walk away doing 1yr and community service. . .use your *****ing brain people.
——————————————————————————————
Yup!
I found him on a celebrity dating site called WealthyLoves.c o m or something. I forget the screename. I will check it out for you guys and come out with the truth soon.
Yeah right T.I. talking to the kids about guns and violence ” Kids don’t go and make the same mistakes I made because it will get you in trouble so please don’t do what I did. Oh and by the way my new album is coming out called GUNS, VIOLENCE and HOES in stores next week so go cop that”. T.I. AKA Clifford Harris is full of ***** and so is the system.
I saw some privacy news in millonaire dating site”W e a l t h y L o v i n g . c o m”.I just can say sorry.
If T.I. (The Inmate) actually went to jail, he woul have to change his initials to T.W. (The Wife)!! T.I. would be somebody’s girlfriend in jail in about 10 minutes.
Another Rap punk/ criminal( insert name) going to jail. What else is new?
SOB should get 10 years federal time, not a break. The world will be a safer place if we would stop giving record deals to every hood thug who can mumble. I wish this hip hop crap was never born.
@ Its6amhoGetOut
I ain’t that old, bro, pay attention to the year indicated in my name. I don’t support motherf@#ka’s going crazy on the streets. But If they out their getting money accordingly then I support them fully. I find too many youth is either super thug or bleached mentally. This is a capitalist society, and here if you play by the rules constantly you will lose and fall behind constantly. I definitely feel like there should be a limit on welfare. I definitely feel like we should have more young black males going to college. I definitely feel as though we should throw our hands before picking up guns. If you met me I’ll probably be your hero, I go to my office everyday dressed in a suit, I own a condo, and I drive a nice truck. But, I never respected you squares. Me and my whole crew are in our late 20’s and we all share those similar *****ets that I stated above and we all are established. And we all are former street *****’s (just cause you are running the streets doesn’t mean you don’t have sense, youngin’). But, really the only problem with today’s youth is that most of them are a bunch of followers, no individuality. But, that is a huge misconception that you have my boy…that street *****’s support any and everything that goes on in the street. The main reason I carry a gun is because of the *****ing fools that are out here that would drop you in a sec. But, next time you see that brotha with the business suit on, nice car, in a great career. Remember it might be me. A true to heart street *****. Don’t think I don’t know why dude’s like you say such things; it’s because you are a coward, and you’re scared of these people. See me when it comes down to it. You will still find me chilling in the hood from time to time, and when I’m out there instead of condemning folks I’m out there advising them on how life doesn’t stop in the hood. See the main thing that I push to youngin’s is instead of calling your self a thug, call yourself a man that way you can be so many different things wrapped in one. But, your bitter cause your scared and *****ody feels you; especially any women; you know they don’t ***** with yall good boys.
@ Its6amhoGetOut
Nerd ***** *****.
Does anyone commenting on here actually LISTEN to T.I. (th whole albums), or just make uninformed comments cuz they heard the situation and a few radio singles?
If anyone saw T.I.’s episode of Punk’d you know he doesn’t take stuff like this lightly. I think there’s more to it than what’s being revealed.
T.I. raps about women, cars and money like anyone else, but he’s one of the ONLY mainstream rappers that will outright tell you on his cds that the drug game will leave you dead, steet life will put you in jail (as he’s a prime example), and that there’s more to life. You don’t get any of that from a 50 Cent, Fat Joe, Ludacris, Game album, or anyone else mainstream. Busta ad Snoop are in trouble with the law all the time (both this year already)…when are they going to jail? They won’t, because they aren’t positive at all in a public way, so they will be free to relese meaningless material. Any raper with a shred of positivity will be brought down. Look at Pac. He had his typical songs too, but was full of positive raps, and he was taken out.
They are so quick to put T.I. in jail for gun possesion when Busta just physically attacked a man (not the first time) and R. Kelly still hasn’t even had a trial and he did a NASTY thing. And honestly, who the hell doesn’t have guns. Name a rapper with guns, anyway, besides Will Smith, and he probably has one too.
know I retired the “Coonie Awards”, but just for the sake of this latest Obama controversy, and the “O”man’s campaign, I have decided to revive the “Coonies” just one more time. Some of these noteworthy coons are folks who have relished in the Reverend Wright fiasco, and have benefited in one way or another from it. But all of these Coons have distinguished themselves by contributing to the downfall of A-mery-can politics and discourse.
1. Bill Clinton: You may have been the “first black President”, but Bubba, black folks don’t love you anymore. And after all the dumb ***** you have been saying lately, can you blame them?
2. Geraldine Ferraro: (Yes Geri, white women can be Coons too) A Black man is lucky to be born black in A-merry-ca? You must have lost your *****ing mind. And you are upset because you were lumped with Jeremiah Wright? My question to you would be why? You are more dangerous than the good Reverend. You ran for the second highest office in the land, he did not.
3. Robert Johnson: Mr. Johnson, having money doesn’t shield you from being a Coon, it only makes you a rich Coon. Owning that coon acting, rump shaking, coonfest network was bad, but your comments about Barack Obama during this election cycle was over the top. Try taking some of that money of yours and buying a *****ing clue.
4. Juan Williams (And all other people of color who accept invitations to appear on FAKE NEWS) Juan, I am really torn about you; but I think I am going to send you a Coonie. If only because you are on that racist propaganda network, and because I am sure that you are cashing that Rupert Murdoch check. You also represent a very troubling trend: Whenever FAKE NEWS offends black folks by doing what they do, they trot out folks like you to make A-merry-cans think that we (Black folks) co-sign with their bull *****.
5. Andrew Young: See John Lewis for how an icon from the civil rights era should behave. First Wal-Mart, and then your behavior during this election primary. My god man, get off the stage.
6. Ken Blackwell: Some folks have made the argument that this coon actually cost the dumbocrats the White House in 2004. As the Secretary of State of Ohio, he was partially responsible for some of the voting irregularities that took place there. Irregularities which benefited the rethuglicans and George Bush. That alone gets him on this list. And when I see him on television night in and night out bashing the “O” man, I have to wonder about his true motivation behind that *****.
7. Glen Beck/Sean Hannity/Bill Orielly: I support the First Amendment as much as the next person… but these clowns really make me wonder sometimes.
8. Tavis Smiley: Tavis, I tried watching your TV show the other night, but I couldn’t get that green tint from my television screen. I just can’t figure out if it was caused by your envy of the “O” man, or if it was due to all that corporate money you have been raking in lately.
9. DMX: Sorry, I have to give this dumb ***** Negro an award. You never heard of Barack Obama, and you are proud of that *****?
10. Pat Buchanan: Every now and then you make sense, but thanks to the Obama run for President, your true colors have been showing.
@ Ann
good stuff!
@ 6am
I agree w/ you and I really respect your argument. TI should e be rotting in jail. period. He was complicit and is really lucky he had some stacks.
I’ll wear a t-shirt. what’s your email address?
@Circa-81, Uh yeah you need to carry a gun with you and you call me a coward? Face the facts, you cant fight, that gun isnt for your protection that gun is so you “can” visit your neighborhood! Dont ever try and school me on the facts of life I now see that you are the problem. What are you gonna do when the cops approach you and find that gun on your possession, you’d be the most ignorant person on this website if you think they’re gonna say “ok I see where youre coming from have a good day” ***** their gonna take you to jail, take your gun, try and put a murder on it, then lock your wannabe hero ***** up!
Thats the funniest thing anyone has ever said to me “I might be your hero” LOL, You dont even think before you type, Every gang member is a coward, real men handle theirs without guns idiot!
Gang members cant fight or they never woulda joined a gang, you’ll never see a gang member fight another person one on one and if you do that ***** is rare so film it.
So the next time you feel like typing without thinking remember this, I have a masters, I’m 24, Ive had a condo since I was 20, Everything I type is what people really wanna say, I ‘m just the voice of the majority of men in here. Oh yeah funny thing about nerds, your ***** had to ask one for a job!
So you keep reppin’ for these street *****s while the crime wave in the black community soars, you seem to have an excuse for everything. TI will ***** up this deal he just made, more ignorant ***** deep south rappers will make the same mistake and your non thinking ***** is gonna get caught with that gun then we’ll see who’s the coward while youre cryin’ momma every night while locked up!
Dumb***** *****boy!
6am, I still love you all!
@ Circa-81, dont bother responding to this with something as stupid as “when you play by the rules you fall behind” ***** thats some ghetto *****, thats some $12 per hour ***** talking, thats also some street ***** talking who really cant function in society. Bye Mr gun clapper, your ***** is probably gonna shoot yourself in the leg!
I like TI and I think he made the wrong decision he was indeed aware he couldnt have guns. KING cd #4 he talks about it. Regardless I still like him and I would buy his music. By the Grace of God he was given a second chance. I can’t judge a man as I am not GOD but I will indeed still listen to his music.
@ He’s presidential, You shouldnt buy his so called music, all youre doing is giving him a way to pay his fines and lawyers, do me a favor and save your hard earned dollars and wait for the real talented rappers who are coming out this year.
TI BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING GROW FIRST.. AM SO SICK OF YOU JIGGA BOOS PRETENDING TO LOVE THE KIDS AFTER YALL ***** GET CAUGHT UP IN SOME ***** YOUR ***** WILL BE RIGHT BACK IN TROUBLE NEXT WEEK SO HUSH WHY DID YOU DO THAT ***** IN THE FIRST PLACE YOUR ***** GOT MONEY WHY DO YOU FOOLS KEEP *****ING UP YOUR LIVES WHEN YOUR DUMB ***** HAD IT MADE? I KNOW WHY CAUSE YOU CAN TAKE THE ***** OUT THE GHETTO BUT YOU CANT TAKE THE GHETTO OUT THE ***** AND IF THAT AINT A TRUE STATEMENT I DONT KNOW WHAT IS……………………………………………
T.I. is so fu*kin fine in that suit
@ Its6amHoGetOut
Boy you didn’t listen to 1 damn thing I said. 12 per hr. Um yea, I live in D.C. This a very competitive market. There is not a PIECE of property out here selling for less than 250K and if you get a condo for 250K that is considered cheap. So if you combine that with my truck that equals way more that 12 per hr. wages. You might want to multiply that a few times. Never ever come to D.C. You will be disappointed by your standards….see outside of D.C. sits P.G. County it is the richest black county in the U.S. (or atleast use to be). But, the thing about P.G. it is filled with black high government officials, businessmen, lawyers, doctors, educators, and former drug dealers turned entrepeneurs. Benzs, escalades, bmws etc, are uniform out here along with *****ets such as houses and condos. But, at the same time most of these mothaf$%ka’s are still extremely hood or the atleast run in the same social circles with us because the point is what you have gained for yourself not what you do. Some of those well learned ethics from the street are still a basis of our morals. We’re doing big things but we will still let that ghetto come out of us and will wup that ***** or pull that pistol if the situation calls for it. See, the reason why people carry their side-arms on them is mostly for protecting themselves from potentials robberies or worst; for the people that don’t want to see you strive. Like a lawyer chick that I use to date told me “why would I want one of these square ***** dudes from college when they graduated to 35,000.00 a year with 25,000.00 dollars worth of college debt. These dudes are punks who can’t provide for me or protect me because there scared of real *****s.” Basis of the lifestyles in this area is getting money by any means nessacary. I didn’t need to go to college and waist my time to come out and work for somebody like me that doesn’t even have a degree. I relied on my gift of gab (some may say hustle) and know how to land my career and become successful. By the way that lawyer is a former stripper that paid for her tenure at maryland university out of pocket (how real is that?). I had a beautiful experience yesterday sitting at the barbershop. And the topic of conversation was houses and cars… u know a bunch of dudes comparing money pretty much. My barber is a former drug dealer. This ***** is 25 and just sold his 2nd house. Sometimes you have to learn to go against the grain. Oh and by the way P.G. county also has the most black entrepeneurs in the nation. And so for us “ghetto” *****s I guess the message that you get from us is that, NO, we don’t actually rely on asking yall’ nerds for jobs we are into creating our own wealth. I can see that you really don’t understand what the streets is all about or life for that matter. We don’t do gangs out here. Most of the pistols that me and my crew got are registered weapons. As long as theyv are visible you can carry. When I got pulled over last summer the cop checked to see if it was loaded, ran the serial number, and then said “here’s your piece back, sir”. It’s a consitutional right to carry a gun. And the police are a huge gun culture with the rest of America. You have a lot to learn. Since then I’ve had my truck customized with a stash box. HA..HA..living above laws is the way I got through life, and the reason why I am sure I’m doing better than you financially. Oh…by the way on your statement about taking care of your kids that has nothing to do with being ghetto. That has something to do with being a bad person. I have a step-son that I raised since he was 6 months he is now 8 years old and is well taken care of. Me and his mom went from the hood to the the suburbs where he lives now (me and his mom are not together anymore). And all of my boy’s take excellent care of their kids also. Private school, bonds etc. That’s how real *****’s do, youngin’. And I’m well trained to handle my glock, and mossberg shot gun. I shoot them twice a month at the range.
He’s a dumb *****. They’ll get his ***** in the end, though. He’ll be on probation so long that he’s bound to ***** up again. He had to have snitched or else they would’ve thrown the book at his scrawny *****. He deserved 10 years.
@Circa-81, that was the dumbest hood ***** Ive ever read. Enjoy your $250k condo *****, here in Honolulu that wouldnt even get you a studio, i told you “*****” its a waste of time trying to tell me what youre doing, youre nothing more than a “*****” who cant function without a gun.
*****ing Coward!
@ Black People vs. *****s (And the *****s gotta go!) Alias 6am
Somebody seems a little intimidated, and lost for words.
@ Black People vs. *****s (And the *****s gotta go!) Alias 6am
But don’t be discouraged. I’m a bit older than you, so I’m supposed to be more intricate, sharper, cosmopolitan, and omnipotent when it comes to debates about society and life. Like Common says “I do it for the People.” I was like you when I left out the “game”; just shunning everything, and regarding it as ugly. As I matured; my observations naturally started to channel themselves into a genuine and more universal outlook. But, this did not happen until I became complete as a person, and the chaos within me subsided allowing me to make peace with myself. See, you can’t be at peace with anything or any body unless you are at peace with yourself first. You can take this how you want; you can get offended and I will care less. But, from reading your views it seems that you have a lot of hatred and racism and an apparent superiority complex targeted at your own people and most likely many other groups whether it be demographically or economically. From this aspect alone I will advise you to relinguish that attitude and become more receptive and empathetic to the “majority cir*****stance” and this will give you more insight to be applied to your social abilities.
