<p>Yesterday my favorite hood couple  the Kang of the south T.I. and his wife Tameka &#8220;Tiny&#8221; Cottle-Harris hit up the Wendy Williams Show to promote their new reality show &#8220;T.I. &#038; Tiny A Family Hustle&#8221; which airs next Monday (December 5, 2011 at 9pm EST). {<a href="http://twanatells.com/2011/12/01/video-check-out-the-first-full-episode-of-ti-tiny-a-family-hustle/"><strong>Click here</strong></a> to watch the first episode}</p>
<p>Wendy tried to bring up T.I.&#8217;s recent drug arrest &#038; his time in jail however Tip politely shut her down.  She then tried to ask Tiny how she felt about the comment rapper 50 Cent made saying she should have taken the rap for her husband.  However before Tiny could answer T.I. intervened &#038; said <em>&#8220;(Pause) naw I got this boo&#8221;</em>.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;I’ve already been very vocal about how I felt as it pertains to that. I’ve already had a conversation with Fif and… we now have a concise understanding.  You know what Wendy… we’ve moved on&#8217;</em>.</p></blockquote>
<p>Needless to say Wendy didn&#8217;t get any of her questions answered.  Well after the show the talk show diva shared her thoughts about the interview &#038; T.I. not wanting to talk about his criminal past.</p>
<p>Check out what she had to say below: </p>

<p>Last night Diddy hosted  the BET After Party at Compound Nightclub in Atlanta, GA.  Diddy noticed that people in the club were buying Grey Goose instead of Ciroc &#038; went into a b*tch-fit &#038; started throwing drinks across the room. <em><del datetime="2011-10-02T17:10:22+00:00">(Looks like somebody&#8217;s been watching too many episodes of Basketball Wives)</del>  </em></p>
<p>T.I. who was also at the party grabbed the mic from Diddy &#038; pretty much put his azz in his place.  </p>
<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;I’m going to tell you like this, you will not f*ck my hundred million up for nothing in this muthaf*cka. I don’t give a f*ck what’s going on. I ain’t for that f*ck sh*t. I will get the f*ck on out of this b*tch and let ya’ll have it.&#8221; </p>

<p>Rapper T.I. was recently sent back to prison after the FBI claimed he violated some type of law by being transported in his luxury motor coach from the Forrest City federal facility in Arkansas to an Atlanta halfway house last week.  </p>
<p><a href="http://twanatells.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Back-Of-TI-Bus.jpg"><img src="http://twanatells.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Back-Of-TI-Bus.jpg" alt="" title="Back-Of-TI-Bus" width="455" height="335" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-40596" /></a></p>
<p>Well now the FED&#8217;s are backtracking their story claiming they decided to bring the rapper back into custody because he was allegedely discussing &#8220;business&#8221; with VH1 producers and his manager who were all on the tour bus.</p>
<p>According to an incident report filed, the only person who was suppose to be on the bus with T.I. was his wife Tameka &#8220;Tiny&#8221; Cottle-Harris.  And although T.I.&#8217;s camp says no &#8220;business&#8221; was discussed, prison officials didn&#8217;t  see it that way &#038; decided to ship him back to the joint. </p>
<p>Via <a href="http://www.tmz.com/2011/09/08/ti-released-photo-tour-bus-manager-wife-vh1-producers-controversy-from-arkansas-prison-returned-did-not-hide-anything-officials-staff-transportation/">TMZ</a>, </p>
<blockquote><p><em>T.I.&#8217;s legal team believes prison officials targeted T.I. when they picked him up at the halfway house and hauled him back to prison, their reason was that T.I. was not authorized to take the tour bus. Yet the pictures clearly show prison staff knew exactly what mode of transportation he was using.</p>
<p>T.I.&#8217;s legal team believes prison officials have now trumped up other reasons to justify sending T.I. back to prison namely, that he brought unauthorized people on the bus, including his manager and 2 VH1 producers.  Prison officials also claim T.I. was conducting business on the bus, because shortly after T.I. got off the bus VH1 announced it was doing a T.I. documentary/reality show. Prison officials also said that T.I. deceived them by not disclosing the manager and the producers would be on the bus.   </p>
<p>The officials claim T.I. had only said his wife would be accompanying him.  But T.I.&#8217;s legal team claims T.I. had a 2-minute, casual conversation with a member of the prison staff 3 months before his release, and that&#8217;s when he said his wife would be on board but never even considered who else might be there.  The legal team believes prison officials are just out to get T.I. and are coming up with lame reasons to justify their actions.<br />

</p></blockquote>
<p>Since were dealing with the FED&#8217;s I&#8217;m going  to keep my comments about this situation to myself, however I will say I think this is some straight up B.S. SMH!!!!</p>

<p>The Kaaaang of the South Clifford &#8220;T.I.&#8221; Harris  was recently removed from the Dismas Charities West halfway house in Atlanta, GA where he was taken yesterday after being released from a federal prison in Arkansas.   </p>
<p><a href="http://twanatells.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/TI.jpg"><img src="http://twanatells.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/TI.jpg" alt="" title="Clifford Harris, T.I." width="386" height="610" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-40228" /></a></p>
<p>According to <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2011/SHOWBIZ/Music/09/01/rapper.ti.prison/index.html">CNN</a> the rapper was removed from the halfway house earlier today and sent to a “different facility” because prison officials’ didn&#8217;t like the way he was transported on his tour bus from Arkansas to Atlanta&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://twanatells.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/T.I.-tour-bus.jpg"><img src="http://twanatells.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/T.I.-tour-bus.jpg" alt="" title="T.I. tour bus" width="475" height="325" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-40227" /></a></p>
<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;T.I., whose real name is Clifford Harris, had agreed to provide his own transportation between the two locales, but federal prison officials are reviewing how he got there &#8212; in a tour bus&#8221;.</p>
<p>&#8220;A U.S. Bureau of Prisons spokeswoman told CNN Thursday night she was not immediately able to disclose where he was transfered. The bureau&#8217;s online inmate locator listed Harris as being &#8220;in transit&#8221; Thursday evening.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote>
<p>You know that&#8217;s some bullsh*t since when did taking a tour bus home from prison become a crime  **Blankstare**??????? </p>
<p>Leave that man alone &#038; let him live his life geez smh!!!&#8230;&#8230;</p>

<p><span id="more-39413"></span></p>
<p>In his final letter from prison rapper T.I. wants his fans to know:</p>
<blockquote><p>What up world? This will be my last message from Forrest City. Just reaching out and sending my love, respect and appreciation to all who have been ridin’ with me throughout this chapter in my life and not just recently but since all the things started happening one after another back in ’06.</p>
<p>From Big Phil’s murder to my beautiful little angel Leiah being called home to heaven, to my arrest in ’07, the 1st prison sentence in ’09, to this last journey that I’m nearing the end of.</p>
<p>A lot of people who are aware of all that has happened to me in my life say that there aren’t many men who could have endured and withstood so much pain, pressure and turmoil while managing to remain sane and keep their wits about them.</p>
<p>I must say that I wouldn’t have been able to do so without God’s grace and having a strong support system behind me every step of the way.</p>
<p>So often we spend time acknowledging the presence of “haters” and all the negativity they send our way but we don’t take the time to acknowledge and appreciate all the ones who love and support us and supply us with the positive energy we need to overcome. We complain about the pain so much that we don’t even notice how much stronger, wiser and better of a person the suffering has allowed us to become.</p>
<p>I heard Pac say once “To live is to suffer and to survive is to find meaning in that suffering.”</p>
<p>I later found out it came from an author by the name of Friedrich Nietzsche. When I heard Pac say that it was just some hard shit to hear your favorite rapper say before he kicked a verse. Now that I’ve gone through it and grown from it those words have a real true meaning to me.</p>
<p>I know this won’t be my last battle with adversity but it has truly prepared me for whatever else may come in the future. For that also I’m thankful. Now it goes without saying that I hate I had to come back to prison for these 10 months but I am truly grateful for the knowledge, growth and understanding I’ve received from the experience.</p>
<p>Next time you hear from me I’ll be back out there with you. Doing for those who can’t do for themselves and speaking for those whose voices are never heard. When I touch down, I’m going all the way back to square one, like I’m fresh in the game and never sold a record. Back on some I’M SERIOUS, TRAP MUZIK shit…</p>
<p>But until then RESPECT to all who deserve it. I’ll be back at you in a minute.</p>
<p>- KING</p></blockquote>
<p>T.I. talks a really good game but I wonder if he has really changed????? I guess only time will tell, so let the countdown begin until he is released from prison&#8230;</p>
<p>Free TIP!!!!</p>
