T.I. To Be Released From Jail On September 29 (UPDATED)
Posted by Mr.North under Good For Hip Hop[14] Comments
T.I.’s coming home this week. Following an 11-month sentence for a parole violation after an L.A. drug arrest, T.I. will be released to a Halfway House on Wednesday from the Forrest City Correctional Facility in Georgia. The release comes a month early as the King of The South was originally to be freed on Septemeber 29th. One of the first thing’s on TIP’s agenda? According to DJ Drama, he’s planning to publish a book. Until then, fans will hopefully get some new music in the near future.
Props to MTV
UPDATE: T.I.’s Lawyer, Jonathan Leonard tells XXL that he won’t be released until September 29th.
The Bureau of Prisons they won’t give you the information [of his release] until the very last minute. The Bureau of Prisons makes all the decisions once [someone goes] into the federal system then the federal prisons is the governing body as to when he’s released, the judge has no control over it. And you don’t have any real contact with them, they don’t communicate with you and they don’t tell you when exactly he’s gonna be released. They don’t even cooperate with me and tell me much of anything. He’s doing great. He’s certainly looking forward to getting this behind him.”

I must say he is a cool dude though met him a few times once in a random best buy and he was cool lol but he just stupid with this jail shit.. He could have a good career if he stop all the bullshit..

T.I. got caught trying to buy 3 machine guns & 2 silencers Police then searched his car and found 3 more unregistered guns
Then police searched his house and found 6 more weapons he was charged with possesion of unregistered machine guns and silencers and possesion of firearms by a convicted felon
He faced 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine on each charge He was in jail for 12 days and released on a $3 million bond and spent 5 months on house arrest
On March 27 2008 he plead guilty and sentenced to a year in prison (to be served in 2009) 3 years probation and more than 1,500 hours of community service as a public speaker to the youth
Then he gets 11 Months in Jail For Probation Violation
Prodigy gets 3 years for a handgun

I am ready for him to get out and make some bangers. These Bozos out here now of days/New Generation Rappers suck so much cock.

Lets be real prodigy has a rap sheet ti can make him self squeeky clean when he needs to thats wasnt prodigy first time wit gun possesion plus you always have to have enough bread for lawers prodigy blows threw his money wit da quickness. Ti is smart but suffers from bein a dumb as mofo syndrome thats why he gets caught up in shit every couple.

In the end I just hope he makes good music and stays out of trouble. I’mnot gonna pile on to what he’s already done cuz that’s all public knowledge and I’m sure we know many who’ve done worse for less.
So, fingers crossed he keeps focused. As for the homie DMX……heres hoping…..

That wasn’t ti first gun charge and ti was busted by the feds and got a slap on the wrist what think is tip started giving tips but that’s a different topic ti aint smart he’s a very good actor full of bullshit excuses when he fuck up
