Is this messed up or what? T.I. can’t even leave the state of Georgia without having a mob of federal agents following and monitoring him at all times. He wan’t get much alone time with his family for this New Year and Christmas with a federal agent staring down your throat at all times.
TI recently finished shooting the video for his hit single “Swing Ya Rag”, but the video will never see the light of day thanks to Louis Vuitton and Gucci.
As you know many of the lyrics to the song make use of Gucci shoes, Louis Vuitton bags and I would think the video had a lot of swagg from those two clothing labels. I guess they weren’t happy with the reference of their top shelf brand referenced in a hip hop/rap video.
I would think it could only help the brand with such a successful rapper as TI giving free word of mouth in a hit song. (They could always blur out the brand name in the video)
TI was recently on the cover of Rap-Up magazine and he spoke on some strong subjects including his pending jail sentence, Kanye West, and his children dealing with him going away for a year.
On how his children are going to deal with his time in prison: “My oldest is 12—she understands. She’s strong and smart. The three weeks I was in, before I got to come home, she said to me, ‘Don’t worry. I’ll hold things down ’til you get back.’ I’m more worried about how my boys are going to deal.”
On what it would take for him to be conceited like Kanye West: “Selling a billion. At about a billion, I think I’d be pretty hard to deal with.”
On winning awards: “No disrespect to Kanye, but that kinda stuff just don’t mean nothing to me. Whether or not I win an award, I mean that’s nice, but at the end of the day I understand that I’m a man. What being a man means to me is not defined by an award or an amount of records sold.”

Like the Akoo shirt TIP is wearing on the cover,,so what? You can’t get it! Not just yet, but check out our Akoo Clothing Store for now and we will keep you updated for when it drops.
Mr. Akoo himself recently graced the cover of Black Men’s Magazine. Unfortunately he didn’t rock any Akoo in the photoshoot they still came out with much swagger nonetheless. Check out the photos below:
As you all know it was a lot of controversy over the track “Swagga Like Us” from TI’s latest Album “Paper Trail” because of the artist on the track, which featured Jay-Z, Kanye, TI, and Lil Wayne.
Jim Jones had a few words to say about TI and the others that were on the track and how some of them have no swag and he belonged on the track. He felt strong about his words and went ahead and made a remix of the song featuring himself, Lil Wayne, Noe and Twista.
So why not let the fans speak on the issue so we can settle this once for all.
Who are your top Five Rappers when it comes to swagger and over all style? (I will start off with my top picks in the comment area)
I’m pretty sure many of you are familiar with TI’s friend being murdered after a concert about two years ago. Many are saying TI testifying against the man who killed his friend is going against the codes of the streets which is Snitches get Stitches or simply NO SNITCHING.
I for one think what he did was honorable and the right thing considering the situation and it being his best friend.
This is a survey for all you TI/Akoo clothing fans. Basically so I can get a better understanding of what your needs are and get more familiar with your likes and dislikes.
