Home for the Holidays

Posted by Bossip Staff

T.I. is featured on the November ‘07 issue of Complex magazine. What a cute theme “Home for the Holidays with American Gangster”. It’s a damn shame that it’s a strong possibility that that might not be true, and he might spend Thanksgiving locked up. Poor thang.

Here is a snippet from T.I.’s interview with Complex:

Complex:

You’re the only rapper to drop platinum albums the last two years. How can you say you don’t fit in?

T.I.: When I saw Tupac talking that “Thug Life” shit, getting locked up for shooting police, and getting shot and living, that’s when I was like, Damn, them niggas is really about that shit. Now you’re just let down. This ain’t this guy that he was on this record. And nobody seems to have a problem with it. It’s a lot of fake shit in it. I like to consider myself an intelligent person, and this shit is not something of intelligence anymore. It’s getting real young and stupid, and that ain’t me.

Not stupid??? Riiight.

    He looks so cute and innocent. Oh well

  2. DEEDY F.

    THEY CAN NOT KEEP THA KING LOCKED UP FOR THA MOVIE PREMIER……


  3. Oh, well…que sera, que sera…


  4. I love the pic of him putting the turkey in the oven with the cig in his mouth. Makes me think of home even if I don’t remember mom or an aunt doing that.


  5. Gangsterism is stupid. Anyhoo, here’s a link about TI. It’s just a small piece from the NY Daily News.

  6. TREAZURE

    Ha ha…I wonder if he can really cook


  7. I am UP-SET at big things choppin’!

    that is NOT gangsta!

  8. MsDade305

    whats up wit the body in the trunk, n why he cookin wit a gun???…..LMAO!!!!


  9. Damn MsDade305. I didn’t even notice the gun and dude in the trunk. I guess this is supposed to be gangster Thanksgiving. That explains the cig.

  10. SavviSweet

    So fine too bad he’s and idiot!!!Machine guns what gives?

  11. Reformed GammaRay

    ahh it’s always refreshing to see a man cooking in the kitchen with a gun in his pocket..gives me those warm fuzzies..

  12. Wiseman

    what an Idiot…contradicting and nothing but hypocrisy on his part…

    He was a waste breath on the Hip-hop Vs America…nothing valid came out of his brain…

    when u put yourself in a situation that u are not capable of handling then u need to suffer the consequences…and that is all!!

  13. ~Allie.

    I hate this cover. W/ his head tilted to the side he looks like a dog who just heard a noise. Huh? Thumbs down TI.

  14. EG da God

    Where are the oven mits? Or is it a cold oven…….stupid PA on the set!

  15. MissOMyGoodnezz

    I think its cute they got him all dressed up like Cliff Huxtable instead of Cliff Harris Inmate # 1440832


  16. Should we be defending T.I. at this point? If not, someone needs to tell local Atlanta radio morning show jester “Frank Ski” he looks like the acclaimed, shameless *****-RIDASAURUS he is standing in front of the courthouse protesting T.I.’s incarceration… if we should be, then I must be out of touch with the community.

    RTKZradio.com “Think Differently” Talk radio.

  17. KSH

    Cute pics for that article. I love TI but I need him to grow up and stop doing silly bull***** that does not but make a mockery of the 2nd chance to get being a former drug dealing thug. Wake up man!

  18. IAMLEGEND

    If you’re gonna do the crime….:-D

  19. Day

    Ok…what exactly is he tryna say about Pac? ….These rapperz is gettin in over they headz nowadayz..

  20. lacyd

    @ EG da God

    Maybe he’s putting the turkey IN the oven :)


  21. FREE T.I.

  22. kigali

    The Irony is too much.


  23. LOL @ Kigali ain’t that truth!

  24. helltothanaw

    *****s gonna learn with that wanna be gangsta *****..

    The Feds are not playin’ with yo’ *****.. keep *****in’ around..

  25. lucky

    Well why he’s on house arrest he plays like he likes to cook.he can become world cl***** chef the way the FEDS are going to keep his ***** on lock for a hot minute

  26. shawn

    that idiot needs to be thrown in jail…..period!

  27. AND...

    I hope his stupid ***** stays in jail b/c he was the loudest one on Hip Hop vs. America. Trying to refute the very accusation that our people are being scrutinized for and then he turns right around and does the very thing he claimed “I used to do.”

    No wonder other races think so lowly of us. The small but powerful population of us like him, make us all look ignorant and violent. I would never want to be a Black Man. I would hate being treated like I am a deviant just because of what some others do.

  28. Sam

    He’s so intelligent talking about being gangster,,, please even though he doesn’t want to be a role model does he know that kids look up to him. how about I just say unintelligent for now.


  29. d@mn TIP!!!!!!!! I sure hope he does make it home for the holidays. He will have PLEANTY of time to learn how to really bake a turkey!!!!! LMAO!!!!! FREE TIP…. FREE TI…. FREE CLIFFORD HARRIS…. http://www.stylerazzi.blogspot.com

  32. TI, please don’t drop the ashes on the Turkey!!!

  33. Mahogany

    ^lol

    I bet that smoke was killing his poor eye.

    Where’s the foil?


  34. Why do these rappers manage to do some of the stupidest ***** imaginable……….what the ***** does he need with a bunch of tommy guns anyway ?

    he needs to take his pig nose baby mama to the nearest plastic surgeon ! remember her song who can I run to ? Somebody should tell her to run to the nearest plastic surgeon ! I guess the initials T.I stands for: TOTAL IDIOT !

  35. im_unique

  40. Mary J Blige

    ignorant ***** kneegrow…look where you are now. hope they keep ur toddler ***** locked up

  41. Yes I Said It

    A body in the trunk? A gun on him while he’s cooking the turkey? Obviously these guy’s live in this silly make-believe world, and need to grow up.

    Dont worry. 5-10 years in prison with Bubba and Raekwon will make TI sober up real quick. I have zero sympathy for this man.

    Buying illegal guns?… then you’ve got another 3 more in your vehicle?… then you’ve got 6 more in your bedroom closet? He’s an idiot. If you or I did that, we’d be going to prison, so why should he be any different?

  42. WhatHappend

    All I have to say about this post is judge not lest yee be judged.


  43. how come in the first pic theres a white man taped up in his trunk?


  44. That mother *****er needs to eat that whole damn turkey.

  45. No

    eww he’s so nasty lookin, like s kinny ***** crack head.. with a big ***** head!!!

    AND DEAR MERCY MERCY ME TELL ME THAT IS NOT A **********ING GUN ON HIS HIP IN THE LAST PIC. PLEASE ABOUT INTELLIGENT HE’S JUST AS STUPID IF NOT DUMBER THAN EVERY OTHER ONE OF THE “RAPPERS” OUT. REAL HIP HOP AND MUSIC DON’T EXIST ANYMORE AND FOOLS LIKE HIM NEED NEVER TO REFERENCE PAC HE DON’T KNOW OR UNDERSTAND NOTHING ABOUT A LEGEND LIKE THAT. DUCK OUTTA HERE DUMB ***** FOOL.

  46. No

    lmao i meant ***** haha … LMAO @ Heather he sure do and a pound of gravy also. Put down the rocks man, put down the rocks.

  47. yes

    i’m more interested in the “lock down a winter wifey” article

  48. ProdigyChild

    I’m not defending TI with the guns… I don’t have nothin to do with that…

    But I will defend the pictures. They are based QUITE OBVIOUSLY on the movie “American Gangster” which is about mafia-esque behavior. Hence the body in the trunk, or the gun at his waist. This is obvious because of the cover of the magazine “Home for the Holidays With An American Gangster.” It’s like how they mix normalcy with gangster life… think “Sopranos.”

  49. Axeldee

  50. Dude is skinny, wiv his big head!! Still cute tho, hes sexy. I didnt notice the body in the trunk lol, but I did notice the gun at his waist in da last pic, didnt realise this was based on American Gangstar, thought these pics looked a bit pointless tbh,like hes tryna be hard, but ah well, looks cute in da cardigan tho!

  51. EZAYTHEREALEZAY

    I’m a TIP fan man and all I can say is my dude,

    you supposed to be smarter than this man, getting caught up like this. You already had heat boi, you got greedy.

    To any ATL-ians on here 2up 2 down man. ***** up with TIP *****ody in his camp had since enouph to say yo dog, you need to chill for a while.

  52. IcebeakerGirl

    I saw American Gangster 2 days ago and WTF.. T.I. has two freaking lines in the movie,I mean I didnt even remember he was in it. The movie was great!!! He still looking extra cute in that pictures, and in the movie omg he plays a KID….

  53. DANA

    come on, like yall havent ever need a machine gun b4! hell, i need one right now! lol!

    naw, i like the pics, except for the one with that fake ***** smile. i’m hoping to God that he didnt come up with that “big things choppin” hopefully that was the editors idea or something.

  54. Pervster

    You mean this muufucca got a heater in his mouth AND a “heater” in his hip while basting the turkey???

    Not good TIP.
