There’s always two sides of the coin and so far we’ve only seen the bad part when it comes to Tiny & Toya, a reality show starring TI’s fiancee, Tameka “Tiny” Cottle and Antonia “Toya” Carter. Quite a lot of people were skeptical when the show first aired on June 28, 2009, as it tells a story about the lives of two wives of hip hop royalties, TI and Lil Wayne, who are… well, Tiny and Toya.
But those who doubted the show can eat their words because the Tiny & Toya show have reached a milestone previously unattained by ANY reality show on the BET network. Allhiphop.com reported that according to Nielsen Media Research, although their debut first episode did not attract many viewers, Tiny & Toya finished its eight-episode debut season with an average of 1.8 million viewers, and that is way far than any other series have achieved in BET history. The Tiny & Toya season finale on August 25 attracted over 1.9 million total views. Ain’t too shabby for Tiny and this might boost her morale being away from her loved one, Tip, who’s still serving time at the Arkansas prison.
You’ve probably been waiting for TI to be released from jail. That’s not gonna happen until next year. But there’s always something to anticipate from the rapper, and thanks to his clothing line, AKOO, we’re kept on the edge of our seats waiting for great stuff to happen. Today we have a sneak preview for you, on what’s coming up next from AKOO Clothing. These have never been seen before in public. First up, the jackets.
Those are called the Swift Jackets. Next up, if you’re a collector of the AKOO Fox items, well, here’s a new look of the orange fox. Check ‘em out printed on the AKOO Flanker Sweaters.
Ah, the AKOO Fox. Reminds us all how Tip used to love posing with him. Don’t you just miss TI?
If you’re yet to have the previous release of the AKOO Mascot Sweater, here’s your chance… and you’re lucky because they’re on sale! Get both white and gray versions.
To those who always wonder how things are behind the clothing line, good news because they are all one big happy family at AKOO Clothing. The fun atmosphere shows vividly at the Fall/Winter 2009 AKOO at Milk Studios in NYC. Tip might still be away in prison, but his guys are working hard to make sure you get the best AKOO clothing.
That’s what’s coming to you, and these are what you’ll like right now, from TI’s AKOO Clothing Line:
There are a lot of new AKOO things available now on DrJays and we love mixing and matching things up for you. So here are our picks for this weekend, just in case you’re going out at night. First up, get a little splash of color with the AKOO Filus Woven Short Sleeve Shirt, $72.00.
For a stylin’ night out, give those baggy jeans a rest and go for a fine fit with the AKOO Swagger Jean, $115.00
And if it’s a bit chilly, throw on the Black AKOO Manny Jacket, $87.00, because the orange version is much better seen on daytimes. But it’s really your call!
Remember when TI walked in an anti-gun Rally with Rev. Al Sharpton just a couple of weeks before his incarceration back in May? He was wearing AKOO The Deering T-Shirt under the jacket. Let us refresh your memory:
Look a little closer and we will see that it’s AKOO The Deering T-Shirt, and now you can pull a cool Tip just by getting the same thing!
The jacket isn’t out yet (but we’re hoping it will soon be), however, there are some other cool and new stuff from TI’s clothing line: AKOO, from polo shirts, to shorts to cardigan sweaters!
It gives us a significant rush to say to TI fans that you can pull a Tip with his AKOO Clothing line. Today, you can look as cool as TI with the AKOO Manny Jacket.
The flashy orange color will surely turn heads, even when you don’t have an arm candy who’s as hot as Tiny. You can get the AKOO Manny Jacket from DrJays.com right away.
It’s already 3 months since TI went to prison and we bet you miss the guy like mad. Thank goodness the rapper has prepared stuff for his fans prior to doing his time, so we all won’t miss him that much. Here’s his collaboration with John Legend in the song titled “Slide Show”, from his album “Paper Trail”.
Wow, the AKOO Fox made an appearance. Which reminds us… have you got these new AKOO stuff? They’re the newest from the Fall ’09 lineup. Look at the new version of Snobby tees: The VOX.
AKOO Clothing Line was created by rapper TI, who’s quite an inspiring figure in the hip hop community. The king of the south might be away in jail, taking consequences of his actions now, but his work continues to inspire his fans.

Our man TI is doing everything right except for getting into prison. But even from behind the prison bars, TI is still doing it right. Tip just scored the highest debut on the new Billboard Hit 100 singles chart, yesterday. TI’s song “Remember Me,” featuring Mary J. Blige, debuted at No. 29 and reports around the internet shows that the song is boosted by 81,000 downloads!
That’s pretty amazing. Another amazing thing from TI today is (again) new stuff from his latest AKOO Clothing line collection. This time, we’re following Tip’s lead and prepare your shades because it’s orange fever!
We always love it whenever there are new AKOO arrivals, and ecstatic when the new stuff matches TI’s. Here’s one polo from the new lineup which we know you’ve been eying all these times.
It’s the AKOO The Works Polo, and it’s available now on DrJays.
