T.I. upcoming live to Seattle at Showbox Sodo Tickets >>>
T.I. willed his superstar status into existence in the early aughts when the MC proclaimed himself King of the South—a claim supported by legendary predecessors UGK, Outkast, and Scarface of Geto Boys. Tip faltered with his first album but returned strong with his sophomore disc, Trap Muzik, selling over a million copies and paving the way for trap music staples Young Jeezy and Gucci Mane. Some of T.I.'s best works include 2006's platinum-selling King and 2008's double-platinum Paper Trail, which spawned No. 1 hits "Live Your Life" featuring Rihanna, "Whatever Ya Like," and the GRAMMY® Award-winning posse cut "Swagger Like Us" featuring JAY Z, Kanye West, and Lil Wayne. Tip's career's historically been plagued with legal troubles and has served several prison stints, including a one-year incarceration for federal weapons charges. His Grand Hustle imprint's responsible for the career of B.o.B.
