T.I.’s To Return To Prison For Probation Violation

    Thursday, when asked about his role in preventing an Atlanta man from jumping from a 22-story building, T.I., said “I don’t expect this to have any different impact on any of my circumstances.” It’s not clear if he was correct or not, as U.S. District Judge Charles Pannell Jr. ordered him to return to prison for 11 months for violating the terms of his probation. TMZ reports one of the officers from Wednesday’s suicide attempt testified on T.I.’s behalf.

    After his September 1 arrest in California, T.I., whose real name is Clifford Harris, was charged of committing three violations of his supervised prison release: testing positive for opiates, possessing ecstasy, and associating with a convicted felon. A probation officer originally recommended 14 months of prison time for the Grammy award winning rapper, but lawyers for T.I. contended that such sentencing guidelines were for violent career criminals. The aforementioned argument was made on the basis that Tip’s prior conviction for assaulting a Florida police detective does not qualify as a violent felony.

    T.I. is expected to appeal the case and remain free on bond until he is either sentenced or the charges overturned through the appeal process.

    5. Daaamn! 11 months?? Again?? Yeah it was a probation violation but this kind of sentence for DRUGS??? The judicial system in this country needs to get it’s priorities straight, this is ridiculous. T.I. kinda deserves this shit tho, he’s a fucking idiot for riding dirty while on probation. He has nobody to blame but himself. But fuck, let’s change some laws please, this is insane! Californians, please vote YES on Prop 19, it’ll be the beginning of a change in the retarded mindset of this nation!

      1. that post would have been a lot better if you had been able to spell the word “retarded” so i think it may be you who is actually a retard and not Tip.

    6. man that sucks.
      the thing that i really hate is that he was rapping in paper trail all this shit about he was wrong ,he will take responsibility for what he did and he wont do it again and all that good guy shit and now he goes in again.it feels weird it makes him not a man to his word,that’s what i hate about it.

    7. What a loser. But at leasts he has an image of a thug now. Now he can scream in his records that he is a real gangster

      1. Cause he went to prison? How da fuck does that make you a gangster? A real gangster don’t get caught….

      1. Who he snitchin on an for wat? All yal silly as fuck, real recognize real jus lik yal fake ass niggas attract each other wit stupid comments if u ever been in the system u would understand how shit work it ain’t all ways black an white.

    8. wow
      “testing positive for opiates, possessing ecstasy, and associating with a convicted felon”

      is it just me or should none of this shit be anybodys buisness?!
      11 months for that man i would send the judge to prison

    9. oh and all of you are such hatefull assholes WTF is wrong with you

      you go off on a man who is sent to prison?!?
      what kind of people comment on this site?
      i thought this was HIPHOP dx

    10. i feel like replying to each one of you and telling all you why you are stupid
      but it wouldnthelp

      you laugh about a guy sent to prison yet you think you got anything to do with hiphop

      and all that stuff you guys “know” about his private life … amazing
      you people are the result of a generation rapping about guns/violence/drugs/money but not rapping about whats to be done about it on a serious level

    11. Damn people. Don’t you know we live in a currupt system. Hip-Hop police watching their every move. There is no slippin’ for modern black entertainer.

      We shouldn’t turn our backs on TI.

    12. Tip got off with an okay sentence from a F#cked up system. Over 75% of drug offenders are not reienstated for attempt to sell, but simple possesion. In this case Tip wasn’t hurting anyone, but himself. The year isnt even warranted, but considering what everyone else gets, I’m happy for him.
      Addiction isnt worthy of incarceration unless someone is seriously hurt. I understand the preemptive measures, but any sane person can go insane at any moment given the right situation, ask postal workers or upset discovery channel workers.

      anyway glad to see a decent dude get such a light sentence. Shout out to Mick Vick, who didnt deserve the year he got….and I’m not bias cause I think O.J. did that shit.

    13. WHAT A FUCKIN MORON. THIS NIGGA TIP STAY LOSIN. FUCKIN WHACK ASS PILLS POPPIN SKELETON LOOKIN GOOFY ASS NIGGAS. MY LIL 12 YEAR OLD CUZZO WOULD SMACK THE SHIT OUTTA THIS WHITEBOY DRUG CONSUMIN ASS NIGGAS. NIGGA ON THAT WEIRD MONKEY SHIT NIGGA

      1. SHUT YOUR WHITE ASS UP… HATIN ON MY MAN TIP… YOU SOUND LKE A WHITE DUDE, KEEP REPEATN NIGGA… U CAN’T DO DAT, NIGGA!

      2. BITCH SHUT THE FUCK UP… FUCKIN TIP GROUPIE YOU PROLLY DONE CAUGHT ALL THAT SHIT BITCH HERPES AIDS ALL THAT SHIT. STUPID ASS TRICK. FUCKIN HARLOT

      3. YOU A INTERNET GANGSTA! U WACK! I BET U DON’T TALK DAT SHIT IN THESE STREETS FOR REAL CAUSE U KNOW THE CONSEQUENCES…. IT’S COOL DOH… U DON’T KNOW ME DATS Y U FAKIN… FAKE ON; I DON’T HAVE NO MORE WRAP FOR YOU SHAWTY!

    14. I mean yeah it was a stupid move by T.I. But why yall hating on him? It’s not like TIP blamed this shit on you. He got his sentence and he ain’t complaining so I don’t see a fucking problem.

    15. Its all a setup. TIP just wants to put on this gangsta image to boost his album sales.. Most of his music is old, and noone bumping this nigga shit no more.. So he figured out how the game works get. Get some time, and come out in a few months talking hard as shit so people can believe you a gangsta.. Watch what weezy do when he gets out, he gonna do the same shit.

      1. that is one of the stupidest things i have ever heard. you are dead wrong with that comment. no one is gonna do like a year in jail to to sell some albums . and also there are plenty of people who still listen to paper trail and that album is over 2 years old, and almost 3x platinum.

      2. Uhh i dont think im gonna throw away some of the best years of my life for another 20,000 units sold. He has more than enough money.

    16. No rapper’s life is that hard where getting locked up is better than enjoying a multi million dollar lifestyle. It’s time for T.I. to reflect on what matters before a judge with a grudge againsn’t hip hop bullshit sentences him to something real.

    17. Wow. Look at the haters coming out. It’s like a party for them! lol

      TIP gonna get through this. He’s a strong nigga.

      Don’t respond to the haterz on here. TI’s new song (Get Back Up) is explanation enough for us all.
