TI Does The View?

Posted by Bossip Staff

Clifford used to be a gangster, but is now reformed and does shows like The View:

Atlanta rapper and actor T.I. visited the ladies of “The View” live Monday morning on ABC. He was there to perform “Whatever You Like,” the hit single from his new No. 1 album, “Paper Trail.” But first, the rapper had to answer some pointed questions regarding that guilty plea on those pesky federal weapons charges stemming from his arrest a year ago as he tried to purchase machine guns and silencers in a Midtown Publix shopping center. The arrest occurred just hours before he was due to hit the red carpet down the street at the Atlanta Civic Center as the most nominated artist at the 2007 BET Hip-Hop Awards.“I can’t excuse it,” T.I. said. “When you’re in my line of work, more people want to kill you than congratulate you. I have a family to protect. It sways your judgment.” With sunglasses perched atop his head, the rapper legally named Clifford Harris Jr. said he’s learned a few things since the arrest. “You’ve got to walk with God instead of walking with the guys. It took me a while to learn that.” T.I. is awaiting sentencing in the case. As a convicted felon, jail time is almost a certainty. On another stint in stir, T.I. said: “I’m concerned, but I’m not scared. I’m not thrilled about it. I look forward to getting it over with.”

Man we get it. You’re walking with God, yatta, yatta, yatta. You’d better walk with God and a shank when you hit the pen. The man’s new single is out right now and he’s over here sh*ttin bricks becoming a jail house preacher. SMH

    SMH @ Bossip for talking about God and a “shank” in the same sentence AND then in the SAME BREATH use the phrase = “sh#ttin’ bricks” and spiritual stuff together…

    The man is trying, damn Bossip, who made y’all God and gave you the power to judge?! Go ‘head Clifford, do ya thang, your new C.D. is waaaay better than that mishegoss Carter III!


  12. Yeah, I saw the whole thing with TI on the view and he wouldn’t get straight to the point when Whoopi asked him what happened with the whole gun charge. Sherri had to interrupt him and clarify what happened because he kept beating aroung the bush. My whole thing is, if he can’t even admit to what he did wrong, he didn’t learn a thing.


  13. *******WE all get a second chance Bossip go straight to hell you idiots. you better walk with God or burn forever in hell.

    “You’ve got to walk with God instead of walking with the guys. It took me a while to learn that.”

    when i watched the show it sounded like he said walk with God instead of walking with GUNS. and he also said that quote another time in another interview.

  18. MissBlaze43

    Go ahead, T.I., do ya thang. Whatever you got to do to keep that fine ***** out of jail, you do that.

  19. Meeko From Detroit (I got Whiteboy from Money and Solange on Lock)

    I know, I went over my grandmother house and I said grandma you watching TI?…lol


  23. T.I will be fine. Anyone who knows about jail, been to jail, or knows someone in jail, knows it’s not like that. They don’t need to rape anyone anymore there are enough homo’s in jail ready and willing to preform. I just hope he don’t tap that jail house booty in jail cause we will hear of it. Also, he can pay for anything so dudes will be trying to cut into him for some money. Yeah, I’ll shank that nicca up real well you pay for my lawyer type sh*t. Trust and believe he will be fine.


  24. Also he got homies from the hood already in that can’t wait to kick it with him. Let’s just hope he’s done right by them or we’ll no the reason why…


  25. T.I. will be in jail in Atlanta,GA where he is loved..He keeps it real so he will be aight..this is just another example of him staying real..who wldnt be a littel nervous about going to da big house that aint where no normal human wanna be..I cant wait to catch the album after the release..I may even go get it from the store instead of limewire..lol..he either going to fight, wash clothes, or *****…lol..love you Clifford!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  26. 100%

    You’d better walk with God and a shank when you hit the pen. LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  27. SMH

  29. Oshie - lay down on the floor, I want the Gs and the money or everybody gotta Go

    T.I. I love you! I will rub ointment on your butthole when you get out. Mama make it all better.

  30. Oshie - lay down on the floor, I want the Gs and the money or everybody gotta Go

    @ A. Keys: You said it, gurl!!! :D

  31. SWAG-a-licious

    Real Gansters must walk with GOD – who do you think keeps them alive regardless of them living recklessly trying to kill themselves..

    The Game and Weezy got it right…God has the power to give life and take it away..it’s not your guns..T.I. is doing something right..plus the man’s baby girl is in heaven looking down on him…I think he just got really confused with more money/more problems and he thought (for a second) that he was the problem solver with a revolver…

    (I crack myself up sumtimes…now watch me walk away…push…push…fierce!!)


  32. We yall change the pic?

  42. Tim

    I am really disappointed in the comments that the Bossip writers have been making. It is a darn shame that the guy is trying to better. No one walk God’s green Earth is perfect, quit trying to call out people. It is probably some busted up people on your staff. You have disrespected so many people for their decisions and their choices that it isn’t even funny. You have talked about legendary writers and people of African American history, that is why blacks can’t come together, you have people too busy trying to chop the other one down. At least the man is trying to protect his family and what he has rightfully earned. I hope that the Bossip Staff realizes the mess and drama they steer up. I guess Chris Rock said it best, “There are Blacks and then you have your *****s” I guess the Bossip Staff are the *****s. SMDH T.I. stay up and continue to pray for those around you and yourself.

  43. TheMan

    6am that ***** was funny as hell because Elisabeth would say that ***** in a nice way

  44. sharronj

    TI , my prayers are with you And you have the right idea about having God in your life wehther its now or when-ever you have his grace and mercy on you and around you just keep that on the forefront and trust GODs words cause the word don’t understand until they are facing adversity in they’re own life I believe you have always had God in your life stay down and your album is very nice I’m digging it you are the bomb God has a way of making things have peace and that is my prayer for you peace and no weapon formed against you will prosper in the name of GOD be blessed TI and much love
