when will these fools learn..smh

Yeah i saw this on CNN they said the bail hearing will be on Friday

damn this is serious..

keep ya head up

I love TI and have been so close to tears all day. He was set up and for what…being a Great Black Man! I have been praying for him since I heard the news and I live right around the corner from where he was arrested. God is with him and TI will get through this.

wait at the bail hearing they say whether say what they are pleading….what is TI pleading (I watch to much Law and Order)…i don;t know what to think (I for some reason hope it is not true)

I didn’t know they could hold you that long without offering bail…
I heard that if you didn’t go before the Judge in 3 days, they would have to release you.
I guess it’s different in Federal Court

NOT MY BABY!!!!!!!!

What in the hell is wrong with TI? How stupid is he? He trusted a dude he just hired to be his bodyguard in July with a major transaction like that? He didn’t know how much of a bitch this dude was until now. But what a way to find out.. TI told the bodyguard to bring the guns to the studio and the bodyguard insisted that TI go to a parking lot on North Ave. to make the transaction there. That should have been a sign that something wasn’t right. That dude works for you so why is he telling you where to meet him? Dumb Ass!

Come on #4, close to tears?!! Please, he should have known better.

Come on #4, close to tears?!! Please, he should have known better.

I luv TI. I feel sorry for him. These dumb mistakes are gonna cost him. Too bad his security sung like a canary.

I don’t know what to think. I love T.I. and I hope he is innocent but if he did do it…Damn, he’s too smart for this shit. Hopefully he was set up and the judge will realize that before it’s too late. Keep ya head up T.I. We love you!!!

dang cant believe this, T.I.’s one of my fav rappers. But he a damn foo’ for this.

The story sounds fishy as far how and why the guns were bought, however can anyone remember when TI was on Punk’d and he almost went balistic when they pulled a prank on him concerning a gun?

@ Bill, it is different.
@Jasmine, close to tears?For what?Lol.

That’s what he get.As a felon, hello you being watched!Wise up next time.

Man, T.I stupid. big dummy.

Well Tip, me and my family pray for you and yours. Reppin’ the A-town. We love you and God Bless, Keep your head up.

That was stupid. I mean why not have one of your boys, someone you’ve known most of your life to take care of that and bring the goods to you. That had set up written all over it.

Bill he went to court today but was denied bail for now. I hate to say it but I don’t think TI is going to beat this one. I’ve read the affidavit and the evidence is overwhelming.

I just thought of something. All of the news surrounding T.I. But does anyone know if Tiny and the other members of Grand Hustle were released?

DUMB @$$

You got the entertainment industry on lock (music, movies & respect) and you wanna go F*** it up.

*shakes head*

GOD HAD TO SIT HIM STILL AND REMIND HIM THAT HE IS THE REAL KING. I PRAY TI GETS THROUGH THIS.THIS IS A LESSON TO EVERYONE PUT NOT YOUR TRUST IN MAN BECAUSE HE WILL DECIEVE YOU.

Lawd how mercy on his anus when he gets in the joint. My goodness!

You would have thought he learned. Remember how scared he was on that Punked episode.

Oh well. If you decide to commit criminal offenses and then you end up getting caught, you have to face the consequences. I feel sorry for his kids more than anything though, how ridiculous that both him and Tiny would choose to get caught up in such foolishness. #4, are you f-ing serious? Lord have mercy, some fans are just deranged.

i dnt even no what to say but tings aint looking to good for u t.i

Set up or no set up.He stupid for even helping initiate it.I don’t understand why he need silencers unless he was planning some shit.Even though I pray for him, this was a beeeeeeyotch move.

Too bad. He really made a stupid decision. What was he trying to do- form his own army? Pull a David Koresh with all those kids?
Anyone know if they let Tiny loose?

DAMN…TIP always getting T.I. in trouble

Dammit T.I……what’s the deal…yeah I heard on your new album that people still think you lying about being a dope boy and staying strapped BUT….when it puts people in danger of incriminating their records than you have some morality issues….once you have the success….leave everything else on the back burner….your one of the most prolific rappers of today and your almost guaranteed a million records sold for any album….why would you have to prove yourself? Take the 50 Cent approach….I’m sure he sold what he had to sell and sucked what he had to suck to get where he is now….and he’s left the selling behind…..no guns….only his bodyguards…..and the occasional assistant but 50 don’t put Tiny in danger by buying guns in front of a Walgreens…..fact or fiction I understand…you just don’t get yourself in that kind of predicament….you all understand…..I’m done…

They aren’t playing with his azz…his trial may not be for 9 months! This is so sad…I really wish he didn’t make those reckless choices. What the hell do you need machine guns for? I mean really now…

I will keep his family in my prayers…but God lets things happen for a reason. Even though I love me some Tip what if he had someone killed? I’m sorry but killing and violence is NOT the answer…someone (alot of someones if he was buying machine guns) could be dead right now.

I hope TI gets his mind right and his life together….

*** I meant 7 months…opps.

WTF DENIED BOND OH LORD GET TO PRAYING MAN T.I. COME ON WE GOT TO DO BETTER MY NIGGA 4REAL DAMN DAMN DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I do believe that people do make mistakes. But in those mistakes, there are consequences. With Little Kim, With Michael Vick. And yes, with T.I.

Particularly when it comes to black folks, right or wrong we have to be extra careful. There are Certificates of Relief and or Rehabilitations for restoration of gun rights. Bottom line, these are the rules you have to follow. Sure, everyone gets their hustle on. But it is neither cute or fun when you are risking your freedom and livelihood (whether you are an entertainer or a day laborer) on getting some silencers and assault weapons.

Perhaps this is a wake up call for him. And as for your bodyguard snitching, hell everybody isn’t Greg Anderson, who is going down like a G for Barry Bonds. They are just not. And I would bet the farm that most people would plea if the opportunity presented itself.

I was reading over @ the mtv website that he’s looking at 10 years fed time

This incident really makes me sad for many different reasons. “If you live by the sword, you will die by the sword” is certainly true in this case.You cannot be involved in a shady lifestyle and not expect to be burned by it. Hopefully, TI will learn from this. However, I am sad that another black man may be going to jail. We’ve got too many in jail as it is. We have got to learn to do right no matter what the costs. Let’s be in prayer for TI and his family and our black men at large.

Tiny was released the other day and from my understanding according to Sandra Rose Tiny and TI are expectng again. If this is true I wish Tiny well with this pregnancy.

FREE TIP! ALL THESE FAKE ASS NIGGAZ ON THESE OTHER SITES TALKIN’ BOUT ITS OVER FOR TIP..ITS A WRAP. YA’LL LAME NIGGAZ JUST MAD CUZ YA FAVORITE LOCAL RAPPER CAN’T EVEN GET SIGNED TO KOCH RECORDS AND TIP BEEN BUSTIN’ YA’LL HEADS YEAR AFTER YEAR. YOU LAMES WOULD RATHER SEE A NIGGA DOING TIME CUZ THEY CAN’T BEAT ‘EM IN THE STORES…

Mess up you have to pay up, and your cash won’t work, Sit it out!!!, but dang, several months from now. But this incident probably prevented whatever could have went down. When is the Awards Show?

….Still waiting on the truth………

Damn T.I. Damn….that was a stupid ass mistake on his part, now he got to pay for it…these rappers will never learn…

Poor booboo!!!

Great post # 40

When it come to news media you can’t believe everything they say, cause most of the stories are one-sided. More than likely, TI will not talk about this until his trial. The smart thing to do. This is the only way we are truely going to know what happens and his side of it. So until then, I feel he is innocent.

I went downstairs to TI’s initial appearance and he tried to look strong. His eyes welled up when he saw his mother and other family members. Trial was scheduled to begin at 3 but it took awhile to settle everyone down and get “most” of his family seated. Many couldn’t remain in the courtroom b/c there is no standing allowed. Tiny didn’t get there until right when they were leading him back out. When they told him he had to stay in custody until Friday, he was visibly upset but he held his head high like a man. Now, let me be the first to say that I am praying for him, but in my experience he made one very grave mistake: agreeing to meet a so-called employee at a freaking parking lot to engage in illegal activity. LOL. Basically, it shows willful intent. Once this bodyguard said he couldn’t come to the studio, a BIG RED FLAG should’ve gone off and he should’ve walked away and told him “get back at me when you CAN meet me at the studio”. I can’t believe he fell for this. He should’ve know better even from his drug dealing days. It’s just ridiculous and this may REALLY cost him some time. There is no such thing as being sentenced to “just” probation on federal charges…he may plead or whatever but he’s probably looking at some time. I say probably b/c at the end of the day it’s all up to the jury (hope he’s luck in that area). Best wishes TI!!!!

I don’t get why are people going off. Did this man not commit a crime, while on probation? So guess what he is going to take his cute lil ass back to prison. How dumb can you be? If some how he gets off then I will be pissed. It will just show how money can buy you anything. (Which is a get out of Jail card) What was he needing with Machine guns? (what to show his boys? come on) I am sorry TI,, but you should go to prison and do at least 5-10 (years, not days, not weeks, not months, but years)… I am done…

P I agree with u. I love T.I. and I’m a huge fan but he is not above the law. I feel bad for the kids.

cosign #8

shit i agree wit #10 n #4 r u serious close to tears heres da point it doesn’t matta if he was set up or not hes a convicted felon how i think is on parole cum on know it doesnt matta wat happened to him 2 make ti go out and try to get all dese dem waepons dat weight more den him and i know 1 of his homeboyz just got killed but still doesnt make no reason for a ex-con to got out n purchase a whole bunch of machine guns,silencers,and etc.Dis just show how ignorant sum people are his ass aint neva gunn alearn until its too late.And let me not 4-got his ride o die chick tiny.Dis shit is so ashame dat a female could be wit a men 4 all dese long n put he before her own children and know wheres mama up in jail wit daddy. I feel fo dese kids so bad. And i hope ti go back behind bars for being so ignorant and for da shit cuz i just have a feeling dats its true.

Lawd how mercy on his anus when he gets in the joint. My goodness!

LMFAO, but on the real, you gotta pay the cost to be the boss. And tis was not the way to go about it T.I.

Ok, so Tiny was arrested for possession of marijuana and extacy, and T.I. was arrested for unlawful purchase of firearms? I feel sorry for their kids.

It just baffles me how some people can have so much, yet make such decisions. What a shame.

Lawd not my baby!!!!!!…..Oh well another one bites the dust!!! Damn that was a dumb move!!

Um, yea I really hope rappers will finally decide to stop trying to act like they the mafia and sh*t. Just b/c you grew up watching Scarface and Godfather, does not mean you can act out what you’ve seen. I am really disheartened by this. I didn’t want to to believe it first, and I’m still not sure if I do. I thought Tip was one the of the smarter ones!

And whoever mentioned the Punk’d episode, you are right. He was most definitely not trying to be around any guns in that episode and he was not playin!

Perfect example of “when keeping it real goes wrong”
I’m a HUGE ti fan, him as well as his family will remain in my prayers.
FREE TIP

And what the hell does he need machine guns for?

He must’ve thought that he was still on the set of “American Gangsta”.

LOL!!!!!

Jeez Luis, Tip, machine guns and silencers? What was about to go down in your hood?

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY T.I? WHY? WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHYYYYYY? WAS U BOUT TO GO TO WAR OR SOMETHING? SMDH. A person only gets so many chances in life to fuck up. Best wishes to him though…

Im Praying for a good outcome.. he’s a good guy… lets not jump into conclusions until we know everything… FREE T.I.P!!!!!!!!! (lets keep it on a positive note people… dont wish bad on NO ONE… no matter whats going on..)

TI WAS ON A MISSION TO FIND BIN LADEN. THIS IS WHY HE HAD ALL OF THE WEAPONS. HE WAS GOING TO GIVE SOME OF THE GUNS TO BOBBY BROWN AND THEY WERE GOING TO HUNT DOWN BIN LADEN AND KILL HIM. PRESIDENT BUSH SHOULD BE HAPPY SOMEBODY IS TRYING TO CATCH THIS BASTARD.

I just read this at TMZ.com.. i hope its true… :

Is he packin’ heat or isn’t he? A source close to embattled rapper T.I. says that the gun charges leveraged against the hip-hopper are false; T.I. never tried to purchase guns — it was all his bodyguard.

The source told MediaTakeOut.com that “[The bodyguard] asked T.I. for an advance on his [pay] and T.I. gave it to him. …Whatever he spent money on — whether it be guns, drugs, or formula for his children — T.I. had nothing to do with it.” That’s it, he was buying formula!

And those guns found in T.I.’s house? “T.I. has security that lives with him and stay with him at all times. The gun that the [federal agents] found belonged to his security team” — all of whom are licensed to carry them, the source claims.

LMAOOOO @ # 60

T.I. YOU GETTIN JUST AS STUPID AS OJ DUMB AZZ!

As much as I love T.I..I have to agree with #8, she says it best.
I mean seriously if your going go and do something like that, you can only trust yourself, and not the next person, especially someone that was just hired on to your team.
Not everyone is looking out for, sometimes people are looking to be against you.
Damnit man that was a dumb ass move!
I just don’t understand when things are going good for people, why is that people deliberately go and do things that can possibly fall back on them.
He will be in my prayers.

good luck T.I, youll need it

http://hiphopes.wordpress.com/

i am a fan of t.i. as well, but he did it to himself. you’re on probation, why are you buying serious weaponry? it makes no sense. i heard the drugs were actually his, but tiny took the wrap. i’m sorry this happened to him, but he did it to himself.

LMAO@60!!! Oh damn. I bet when you were in 3rd grade, and the assignment was to come up with your own make believe story, you always came up with the best story to turn in!!!!!

Why do Black folks cop pleas for niggas fucking up? He knew he was a convicted felon. Everybody knows from the Irv Gotti ish that the Feds are watching rappers. Why would you do some dumb ass ish like this? I have no sympathy, cause he should’ve known better.

HE’S A FELON…AND A RAPPER…
HEY TI, EVER HEARD OF THE HIP HOP POLICE, THEY TEND TO WATCH RAPPER?

OH BY THE WAY, FOR ALL YA W/ THE WISHFUL THINKING…YOU CANNOT BEAT THE FEDS…IF THEY GO IN FOR THE KILL THEY USUALLY ALREADY HAVE AN ENTIRE CASE AGAINST YOU (90% CONVICTION RECORD)!!!!

He gonna be Hip Hop’s new Slick Rick.

still sounds like a half ass story..the nigga been framed and datz MY damn opinion..and i think his bodyguard was probably a undercover cop from the start..and why an the hell would you asked for an unregistered or unlicensed gun..dat part still don’t sound right..they couldn’t wait to put T.I. On blast on CNN..smh..I STILL LOVE HIm but innocent until proven guilty..i hope it’s not true..i wanna know about physical evidence too..i wanna hear the damn wired tape too..

I’M PRAYING THAT T.I. LEARNS A LESSON FROM THIS. THIS MAY GIVE HIM TIIME TO STEP BACK AND REALIZE THAT HE NEEDS TO CHILL. HE MAY NEED A BREAK. HE ALSO NEEDS TO WATCH THE CROWD HE HANGS WITH. INSTEAD OF PARTYING ALL THE TIME, GET OUT THE SPOTLIGHT. HE’S ALREADY FAMOUS. I TRULY RESPECT HIM AS AN ARTIST, AND I BELIEVE HE’S A GOOD PERSON. I’M PRAYING FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY T.I.

There’s always small room for an “if this is true” but it ain’t looking too good here, and if this is true then TI is One Dumb Nukka indeed! This is some straight up coonish thuggery. SMDH.

Exactly @ 69!The law is principle so when you a felon and now days a rapper you have to be extremely careful.If he didn’t learn his lesson the first time he isn’t going to no time soon till them bars slam in his face again.It is what it is.

It’s funny to me because if this was some just some random story on the blog all of

you women would be like “throw that nigga away and lock the key”, but because it’s

one of your favorite rappers then it’s “he was framed, he was setup”. Any other time

this site resembles stormwatch.com with it’s psuedo holy self righteous posters who

know exactly what’s right and what’s wrong. But throw in your favorite rapper and

football numbers and now it’s “he’s innocent! he’s a good man!”

Yeah he was setup. He got snitched on, shit happens ALL the time. I hate snitches.

Don’t worry the bodyguard will get his. The bodyguard shoulda told T.I. he didn’t feel

comfortable buying the machine guns. And if the bodyguard ends up being an

undercover informant(I guess he was an informant for all the other artists too), then

legally it still doesn’t cover the fact that T.I. supplied him with money to buy the

arms.
