T.I. Just keep growning & evlolving as an artist, SPITTING REAL LIFE FROM THE HEART, REMINISCENT OF “LIVE IN THE SJY”. “Had the Album of the Year, Grammy or Not” You know what it is. He could shoot like 3 more videos from tracks off Paper Trail go to jail for that year & an day, then come back like he never left. Like what he did with Urban Legend, then came back with KING.
#4, shut your mouth !!
this guy made a mistake and he should serve time like any REGULAR PERSON would. I think one lesson ive learned from this is that T.I is one of the only people in the world that gets rich off the fact that he’s going to jail. getting MTV shows etc..
^^^^^^^^^^^i feel u my dude…. but innocent until proven guilty my nigga… his REAL paper trail ull come out if he did snitch… TRUST… he go too many haters for it not to.
This is a great song. Nigga made a mistake and gone have to pay for it, but it takes a real man to look at the mirror and start changing the very things you make money. Big ups Tip the south on top for real. Tip the best in the game.
For all you fake Internet thugs on Shawty Lo’s nuts and dissing Tip for “snitching” (I’m looking at you #7), imagine yourself in that scenario. As somebody said on a messageboard I was on, would you a) maintain your “street g” image, do 20 years, miss out on your kids growing up, and become irrelevant in the rap game, or b) cooperate, do your 1 year, then come back to your kids and the top of the music world?
The choice would be easy to us smart folks…unfortunately, too many are still ignorant.
Honestly, T.I. lost on this album in my opinion. I dont like it.
I wish he did the “Louie Rag” track, it would have taken the image in an entire different direction. Nothign wrong with this song, but damn am i sick of that Rihanna track “Live you life”. I lose my mind everytime I hear it. And i’m a dude that buys t.i. albums BEFORE i download them.
regardless, fuck LV for not allowing them to do the song. We Black money getters really need to stop spending $$ on their shit.
justin cant write for shit, his voice and them timbo beats is what did the album. yea niglet been rappin a bit fast but its str8 tho. im just tired of rappers using features
TI is 1 of the realest cats in the game! & Keeps banging out hits! Paper Trail is a classic! & 2 all of u followers spitting that “Hes a snitch” bull shit!
“PRODUCE SOME PAPER WORK AKA SOME PROOF” OR SHUT THE FUCK UP!
he knew the rules of the streets before he got himself in that situation and I’m tired of you lames making excuses for this dude he wasn’t thinking about his family when bought them damn guns was he? hell no he wasn’t t.i. is the ultimate studio gangsta he aint lived shit he raps about he wan’t to be gangsta but when shit hits the fan he runs to the law for justice not only is he a snitch but he’s a coward too aint shit real about that dude..
and for you dumb asses that keep saying show his paperwork t.i. is one of the top dudes in the entertainment industry he has money and power to keep his paperwork from surfacing and that’s exactly what he’s doing i don’t need no paperwork to prove that he’s snitching he’s a 7x time felon get’s caught with 10 machine guns and only gets 1 year? nuff said HE SNITCHING!!!!! you can’t buy your way out of federal time..
With all of the celebrity fashion lines that are on the racks, and with stars like Mandy Moore discontinuing her line, I’m interested to see how Justin Timberlake’s line pans out. I loved Cry Me a River and agree with the EverHype (www.everhype.com/?utm_source=bc) review that called it “Great” and gave it 3.75 stars, however, this might be a stretch for the young entertainer.S
ok ppl say T.I. snitched…. lets look at this way, he got caught with them guns, lets look at it this way, if he snitched who got caught after TI got caught? well they seemed to have found the kill of his cousin lamant johnson i think the name was. so 2+2= if he snitched it was on the killer. THATS NOT SNITCHING! thats justice. yall with you snitching bullshit dont get it. Dont snitch on the dude on the corner selling some drugs trying to provide for his family, dont snitch on someone you see doing a non violent crime, DO snitch if someone murdered ur moms, friends, or family. If thats the case and T.I. snitched on the killer of his closest partner then fuck more credit to T.I. he was obv buying them guns for something so when he got caught he wasnt able to do that somthing (retaliation anyone?) so he did the next best thing and got the dude prison time rather then time in the graveyard. Thats how Im looking at it, cuz all these ppl claim he a snitch but aint got no proof. I say if he did, it was on the killer, and thats ok in everyway. ppl need to get real with this snitching shit.
oh and btw (the real reason we suppost to be commenting) this song is fire, its been my fav on paper trailz since i heard it. paper trailz was an amazing cd. and to the dude up top, #7 i think it was, how is T.I. not good at rapping fast? Hes got great flow at that speed and its not the fastest rap, he aint trying to be no twista or anything, but he gets it done right at them speeds. T.I. is one of the few great mainstream rappers out there. Hes got the most respect from me or anyone I know that listens to rap. He seems to be somewhat real with what he raps about, like hell rap about guns, shit he got caught buying an arsenal, hes like what, a 9 time felon? nuttin cool about that but it is what it is.
@29.YO!BK!… i believe what ur say’n about the snitching part. i am still tryna figure out who did he snitch on? LOL!!! i love the paper trail album. i truly hope he does make at least 2 or 3 more songs b4 he hit the road for a lil minute. he is a talented young man. i just hope that w/ all this talk about him being a changed person, i hope that is true, but sometimes it is hard 4 ppl to change from what they r used 2 do’n. in 1 of his songs, he said he would do it all again just 2 these suckas he ain’t lost it. sumtimes, a person shouldn’t have 2 prove anything 2 ANYBODY. i wish things could’ve been different 4 him, but u know sumtimes things happen 4 a reason and u can’t really question it. just go w/ the flow. i know his concert here in MIAMI, FL is gonna be off the chain.
song is good.
but i feel like he’s been a little redundant ever since he caught a case tho.
“Live Your Life”, “No Matter What”, “Dead and Gone”
they’re different versions of the same song.
T.I. can rap about whatever he wants.
but i miss the old tip
the “Be Easy” tip.
the “ASAP” tip.
u saw glimpses of it in the “Ain’t I” remix
but ever since this gun thing…
its like he’s preaching almost.
i mean… its good to share your story, and to teach the kids.
thats straight.
but thats not what i bought your album for.
——————–u know what? NO ONE knows if he snitched or not. If you based it on the fact that he’s a felon so many times over, and that he was caught with Military type shit, maybe he did. But one thing that just popped into my mind was the movie “He Got Game”. Any of yall seen that shit? Remember wen Denzel was in jail and theyoffeed him freedom just to get “Jesus” to go to “Big State”…. That’s exactly how the government and this world as a whole works. If you have something to give that they want… they will take it. $3 millon bond, public service announcents, 1000 Hours community Service… in a year or the deals off… and he never USED the guns… he was caught PURCHASING them…. the MAXIMUM penalty (which he wouldn’t've recieved) was 30 years…. he probably would’ve did about 7-10. seems like he gave them EXACTLY what they wanted. Now ONCE AGAIN.. i don’t know if he snitched… i believed he did at first.. but now i really don’t care… and do you know why? because the reason he’s in this mess, and the reason why “snitching” is not allowed.. is because of a GAME that was created to ruin us as minorites. T.I. is the one who hasto live with his decision and whether or not it’s coincides with what he stands for. I’m gonna just enjoy his music as long as it’s good…
1 more thing… GullyWayze… u r right… oyu can’t buy ur way out of fed time… and you can’t buy your way out of paperwork being exposed neither… Someone with enough cake can get it if it exists… Time Will Tell.. hell they stil aint confirm who shot Kennedy
LOOK at OJ… wen he was rich.. he got off… (FOR KILLING A WHITE WOMAN!)… now that he’s broke.. he’s done.. they WAIT for you to fuck up. it’s all a set up
@hiphop&depression… i am w/ u. i am can less if he snitched or not. he an articulate individual. ppl wanna talk that now he has a reality show. i believe he gets money 4rm that. that money can used to help his family while he away serving time in prison. some of that stuff he raps about, i believe he has done it in his lifetime. no make believe stuff. i sometimes listen to rap music, and his music along w/ tupac, biggie, the old snoop and dre is what i listen too. all these individuals has been through things in their lifetime. some have over came them and some have died as a result to u live by the gun.. u die by the gun. when u live the life, it is somewhat true. either u will dead or in jail… if not either of those, u have to change ur life. not change the life for u, but for ur children.
THATS GOOD SHIT U DOING TI I GOT LOVE 4 U MAN STAY UP MY NIGGA GOD IS GREAT U WILL ALWAYS HAVE HOOD LOVE A&R BONEY BONES MONEY TEAM
