TI – From the mouth of a BadBwoy
Wednesday, September 2nd, 2009
When I watched this video, I was suprised at how candid TI was about his actions and the repercussions. he admits to his wrongs and says it’s time to pay. Big Man Talk, and apparently Big Man Walk from this series.
I know what he’s talking about when he says he was driven to the desperation of fear that put him in that parking lot where his odyssey began. this is one of the best tools I’ve seen any rapper create to pay for his crimes to society.
TI is a stand up guy, and he stands up and gets his house in order episode by episode. he spends each episode resolving one of his own issues, in action in another youths life. he meets them on their turf and talks about their beefs; because he knows them.
The fatherhood aspect of the show is what interested me, because he is after all – a father. He supports his nephews and niece as well, and all the kids know that he is going away for one year and one day, and why. apparently he wants them to be clear on how the mess hits the fan. He admits that he’s taking the hard approach to showing them, but no one doubts how well it will work.
Tiny, the mother of his children, has a reality show as well. shes’ been very candid on why she thinks he did it; and why she thinks he won’t do it again. it’s a departure from the usual bad guy baby momma drama of reality tevee. this one we like.
We sincerely hope that TI continues to help to Address the problems of his youth, and to mentor youth; when he returns from prison. No Doubt he changed alot of lives through his community service and reality tv show. if the network is smart, they’ll engage him further. this is a goldmine for everybody.
Please feel free to share it and to repost it, as it’s a full length episode unlike the short clips found on youtube.
