Spending Time Constructively

Posted by Bossip Staff

T.I. 1

It appears that Clifford is spending his time on house arrest wisely:

A representative for the Grammy-winning artist, 27, says he has already completed six new tracks in a studio inside his Georgia home. T.I. hopes to release the disc, which he’s calling Paper Trail, in September 2008. The album’s title refers to the fact that T.I. is writing his new lyrics down — a practice he abandoned after his 2001 debut, I’m Serious. Each of his four subsequent albums, including this year’s T.I. vs. T.I.P., was composed without the aid of pen or paper. “He wanted to take more time to really put something down [this time].”

It’s good that he now has taken the time out to produce some quality music, good for him, nothing like some well thought out lyrical ammo.

    That’s a good start. I hope he will use this experience as an opportunity for a change in his lifestyle and to serve as a positive role model to others. Good luck TI!

  9. I like TI. I just hope this cat got all his legal ducks in a row. The boys music is fire though.

    So that is why a song or two from “King” sounds like a song or two from “T.I.v. T.I.P.”

    He didn’t remember what he wrote. :(

    Short term memory will get ya everytime.

    He NEEDS to be spending time Eating…..eff the lyrics…put on some weight tip…DAMN


  12. yall are crazy……….

    tip needs to go back to his i’m serious days

  13. Fred

    Now I see why the all those albums were wack. He should’ve never stopped writing. As a consumer I feel violated. Can a nicor get a refund???

  14. ROC dynasty

    Why do all these non lyrical dudes always gotta talk about how they don’t write and just come off that top of their head…Ever since Jay-z said he did it everybody wanna act like they do it too. Jay has shown and proved the fact…only other rapper I’ve seen actually do it is Ja Rule and he isn’t lyrical either… I call bullS#it on tip until he can show and prove.

    Ummm, Bossip I’ma need you to keep “ammo” and “T.I.” out of the same sentence unless Sweet Jesus is a Parole Officer.

  18. brinab

    im sure the title Paper Trail is also a spin on his current situation…

  19. wifey

    Six tracks? Just six, measily tracks? WTF? F*** quality, you betta get some quantity up in that *****…. You betta do a Tupac and get like 200 songs in the can cuz homie, if you go down for this, one album is not gone hold you and your family down. You gone need a few decades worth of music.

    You can be like Elvis and Pac (only the living version), and still be putting out albums when you’re nowhere to be seen. Better get crackin’, my brotha.

  20. Just Me

    What music you can do in prisson? Just ***** http://www.spymac.com/details?2295014


  21. @ wifey,

    Couldn’t have put it better. The mysterious album releases are now going to be his path to even bigger fame.

  22. nice

    He is a cuttie! I love him! It seems he is single now! His profile was found on millionaire dating site WealthyRomance.com last week!

    Good luck to his search!


  23. Damn, i aint even read ur posts but *****, he looks sexy there!!! Wow. Sum caramel biscuit to go wiv my afternoon tea lol!


  24. JayZ is the only one spittin off the head who is actually lyrical and saying anything people want to hear. Lets just hope TI,TIP, or whoever he is today never stops writing ever again and moves forward wit the little bit of talent that god gave to him. And stop trying to buy guns that he’s to little to use.

    Squad Up!

  25. hot*****

    Bull***** he doesn’t write his lyrics down! Nicca, please. All these people need to quit pretending that they’re lyrical geniuses. Besides, even when someone (like Jay-Z) doesn’t write his lyrics down they’re all memorized anyway. So you just spit a memorized rhyme over whatever beat is thrown your way.

  26. Its6amHogetOut

    You aint foolin’ anyone *****, your ***** is pullin’ a Tupac before you go do 11 years, record 100 **********in’ songs, release some *****ed up soundin’ album every 18 months and hope you still have an audience when you get out!

  27. cherrybomb

    this dude running scared as hell to be buying automatic weapons in the grocery store parking lot. damn. look at all the traumatic deaths that he’s dealt with in his young life and it’s no wonder his judgement is *****ed up. heartbreaking too b/c he is smart as a whip and obviously very talented. i hope he can shake off this fed case, drop that loser tiny and the rest of these *****holes riding his fame coattails and get some people areound him who give a ***** about his well being.
