like that ? baffles me when i hear that.. i mean, sure i was mad he went back to jail doin some stupid ? .. but i didn't let it affect me like THAT.. it seem like half you ? more upset than Tip himself..

the question is tho.. why is his career over?

    I'm a pretty big T.I. fan. But I think that since this was the first time that - regardless of his legal situation - his album was 100% trash, ? think it's over. Personally, I think he got a lot left in him, but I can understand the ? who think he done.

    i can't even understand it.. i just think that more than ever today's rap fans are too emotional.. they get too tied into these rappers lives and not enough music..

    bruh.. tip 7 albums in and a decade into the game.. his spot can't be taken at this point.. the only ? that can knock tip off is tip.. and the ? still got too much left in the tank..

    I wouldnt say he's done but he won't be as big as he once was, in other words he not guaranteed plat like jay, wayne, kanye, & em no more.

    label pressure... no mercy wasn't the original king uncaged.. but anyway.. these circumstances i believe lays out the perfect scenario for a big comeback his next go round... the media feeds off ? like this... one hit single... the anticipation returns.. and we all know hit singles and T.I. go hand in hand when he's on his schedule..

    LoL at that ? career being over .... he'll get his mind right and be back on top of the charts . the same ? counting him off will be back on his nuts .

    I think ? forget that TI has the most number 1 singles out of any rapper in the last 5 years ...

    ? papertrail had 3 number 1 singles ....

    That whole album was him trying to get a hit single too.... But hopefully he comes up with something the second time round.

    dude can make a hit whenever he feels ...

    the thing is that this time around he was trying to directly hit the streets because he felt the he abandoned them with paper trail ....

    if i'm him I say ? the streets and continue to go the paper trail route ... he is 30 I think ? the streets time to move ahead .

    I agree that if the ? was free, his ? would be plat. But that wouldn't change the fact or opinion, I guess) that his album was trash. Again, I'm a huge fan of dude, but No Mercy was VERY weak.
