In his current status, it would be an understatement to say that T.I. [click to read] is on the right path since his legal troubles late last year. He’s got an album on the way, community service and a campaign organization up and running, and a handful of movie roles forthcoming. Still, it’s his eventual jail sentence in March that quietly hovers over these expected accomplishments. Stopping by Angie Martinez’s show on Hot 97, T.I. delved into his views of the situation that lay closer down the road.
When asked how he’s preparing for the jail bid, T.I. humored the questioned by stating, “Stack money.” Soon after though he reassessed his preparation as he continued, “It’s an ever pressing thought, but you don’t let it effect you in that way because then you will do more time than you really have to do. You’ll spend your free time as jail time, and you can’t do that. You got to allow nature to take its course.”
That course taken has been months on house arrest with a supple amount of time set aside to work in community service acts and studio sessions. Knowing that this is a plan others would have a hard time adjusting to, T.I. still keeps a positive outlook. “I’ve acknowledged the situation that I’m in, I’ve accepted it, and right now I’m doing everything necessary to move forward. I’m not dwelling on what I can’t do. I’m just being thankful and thanking God for what I can do.”
