T.I. Slated For Prison Yet Again…
Rapper T.I. is going to have lots of time to work on new material—from behind bars at his new temporary home, Forrest City federal prison in Arkansas. T.I. was ordered today to report to prison no later than November 1. The hip-hop star (real name: Clifford Harris Jr.) must turn himself into authorities by the beginning of next month to begin serving an 11-month sentence for parole violation. According to W.E.N.N., U.S. Marshal Beverly Howard made a ruling today ordering hip-hop star T.I. to report at Forrest City to start his jail time. It’s familiar territory for T.I.—he served six months at the same federal prison last year after being convicted on weapons charges. This new incarceration comes as a result of drug charges T.I. picked up in Los Angeles last month. LAPD later dropped the case, but the arrest was violation of T.I.’s parole—so he’s headed back for round two. Will this next stretch of jail time be enough to scare the troubled rap star straight? T.I. has a great career to focus on and a lifestyle to maintain. If he cleans up his act, he’ll have a golden hip-hop life ahead of him. But another bad turn will leave T.I. in serious hot water with the law. With lots of time in his cell to think about it I(and rap) about it, maybe T.I. will come out on top after his sentence is served—with another hit album to show for it!
