T.I. Covers April Issue Of VIBE Magazine…….
March 3rd, 2009
The King’s last stand……. Malcolm X, no? Ok, moving right along. Not that he doesn’t deserve it, but it’s only right Mr. Harris grace the cover of VIBE’s April issue since he’s going on a government retreat for about 365 days.
It looks like T.I.P’s cover story won’t be the traditional, “Howdoesitfeelknowingurgoingtojailoversomedumbsh*t” feature, but more so, how exactly the logistics of his groundbreaking plea deal were actually worked out. Some deemed him a snitch, others labeled him one of the luckiest bast*rds to walk the face of this earth. Me personally, I believe GOD had something to do with that.
Says VIBE magazine of their groundbreaking April Issue…….
“In an extensive report titled “Cell Therapy,” VIBE Senior Editor Benjamin Meadows-Ingram chronicles the superstar’s history-making legal battle and gut-wrenching journey since his 2007 arrest for attempting to collect three unregistered machine guns and two silencers following his BET Hip Hop Awards performance rehearsal.
After the announcement on March 27, 2008 of what many felt was a shockingly light slap on the wrist for the serious charges, many responded by screaming, “Snitch!” However, authorities agreed to a groundbreaking plea deal negotiated by heavyweight Criminal Defense Attorney, Steve Sadow, who cited the star’s ability to influence others by serving 1500 hours of community service.
T.I. bites back at rumors about how he scored this largely unprecedented deal by saying, “Ain’t no such thing as a secret snitch…Pull up my agreement. It’s public record.”
In the thought-provoking feature, Meadows-Ingram meets with the rapper/actor in
It’s the question that’s been the elephant in every room T.I.’s sat in since he received the plea deal, so I’ll have to ask it here as well; How much will T.I.’s career suffer during the duration of his government retreat? Does he have enough ammunition (oops) to last him that long? Will the Grand Hustle fold FOLD without him??? I know you’re dying to tell me your perspective, so GO HEAD!!!!

T.I. is a King and many Kings suffer through their reign. But just like Joseph in the Bible, who was sold out by his brothers, he will rise again, and take over the charts. What God gave him, can’t no man take from him!
Yo T.I. made a mistake and is man enough to admit it, he is going to do his time like a real man, thats more than i can say for a lot of us who are quick to judge because we did’nt get caught, he is doing a good service by touching the lives of young men who would make the same mistakes and at least trying to get them to turn their lives around, as a black man a husband and a father i have a new appreciation for this man he encourages me to go out and do the same sometimes it takes bad situations to bring out the very best in us as long as we keep God in our lives we will come out victorious keep your head up T.I. and God bless you.
TI is a personal friend of mine and he will be fine. When he come out he will have another album… WHY because he’s the KING. He’s looking for doing his time and getting it over and moving forward in life.
T.I. will be just fine. He is very talented and he will overcome this. True fans will be waiting anxiously for his return. I am one of them!! I will just miss seeing him!!!
TI WILL BE JUST FINE WITH GOD ON HIS SIDE HE WILL COME BACK STRONGER AND BETTER THAN THE TI WE ALL LOVE AND KNOW NOW. I WILL BE RIGHT THERE WAITING ON THE NEXT ALBUM AND I WILL PRAY FOR HIM AND HIS FAMILY EVERYDAY TILL THE DAY HE STEPS OUT THEM GATES MUCH LOVE OVER HERE IN AUSTIN TX FOR TI KEEP YOUR HEAD UP.
Well! Im proud of T.I., he has proved to me to be a real cat! I’ve had the opportunity to watch his show and his main priority is to assist where he can, and he does! Will anxiously wait!
I think T.I. will end up on top with GOD’S help no matter what. OR what the people are saying and how they look at him. Like T.I. said if GOD took him to it ,He will get him through it. May God Bless The Greatest Rapper Alive.
