Highlight of the 2009 Grammys: The “Rap Pack” featuring T.I.

Only one performance brought the house down, and you know it included our man Tip. Get a replay of M.I.A., Lil Wayne, Kanye West, Jay-Z and T.I. doing “Swagga Like Us” live at the Grammys.

Queen Latifah introduced the group last night as the “Rap Pack”. The entire audience stood up to greet the performers. Fresh, vibrant, and historic, the group all wore black tuxedos for their first-ever live collaboration.

The beat started off with the very pregnant M.I.A., who belted out a few rhymes of her own “Paper Planes” while managing to not give birth on stage.

As the group hit it off word for word, rhyme for rhyme, T.I. had the best verse as he described each of his distinctive group last night. “You can go see Weezy for the wordplay, Jeezy for the bird play,” Tip rapped on, “Kanyeezy for diversity and me for controversy/ All my verses picture-perfect, only spittin’ certain purpose/ If you ain’t living what you kickin’ then you worthless.”

Epic! Hats off to the Rap Pack crew. What a great way to kick off T.I.’s new show, debuting tonight! The premiere of T.I.’s reality show, T.I.’s Road to Redemption: 45 Days to Go, airs on MTV TONIGHT. Tuesday, February 10, 9pm local.

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.
