T.I. appeared at a Harlem anti-gun rally yesterday (May 11th) along with Reverend Al Sharpton, Queen Pen, and Kevin Liles. [watch here] TIP said "I owe us an apology. The same violence and gun activity that I’m attempting to stop, I once was a part of it and played a huge part in promoting [it]." [watch here] T.I. says it was simply a way of life to him “A lot of people did it as a fashion statement. For me, it was more so a way of life. It was the lifestyle I was raised in. I carried guns and sold dope as a 13, 14, and 15 year old. All the experiences I gathered in that time [are] exactly the tools I need to get out here and reach the people that are doing what I used to do." [watch here]
T.I. knows what he's talking about "These kids know I lived the life they’re now living," he explained. [watch here] "I’ve seen the outcome of their mistakes. I’ve caught cases, I’ve been to jail, and had attempts on my life. I’m standing [and] I’ve learned from it…I have the experience of living this life of crime, I know where they’re headed and I can tell them. And they’ll listen to me because they’ll know it’s the truth." TIP finished by saying "Anybody who thinks I’m talking just to hear myself talk, google Clifford Harris. My record is public record."
