Harris is the face of a new public service announcement, airing exclusively on WSB-TV Channel 2 and wsbtv.com.The new campaign, which aims to get people to call the Atlanta Crimestoppers hot line to report anonymous tips, is the brain child of WSB-TV investigative reporter Mark Winne.

“I think T.I.’s street cred is as powerful as anybody we could get to do it,” said Winne. “There is no telling how many lives this PSA may save,” Winne added. In addition to promoting his latest project, Harris spends his time talking to kids and teens about his mistakes, in hopes of encouraging them to keep their lives on a positive course.

So I was out in ATL for BET awards weekend, it was definitely an interesting experience. BET played me on press access to the show and I had horrible luck at the parties the first night there, but I managed to get some good footage @ Dreamz ATL. People in attendance included T.I., Lil Wayne, Juelz Santana, Maino, Jadakiss, Busta Rhymes, Fabolous, Maino, D. Woods, Raekwon & plenty of women, check out some pics and a recap below.

We did it, and it came out hot,” Tip said of the video. “Louis [Vuitton] and Gucci started trippin’ about it. They were saying we were infringing, in one way or another. They weren’t happy about it. They didn’t want it to come out. But it’s hot, though.”

Rappers need to not promote brands that don’t show the urban community love. I am not going to say this is about racism, it may just be a wise business move to protect their image. The lesson to be learned is to not promote products for free.
