T.I. might just lay claim to the title of Hip Hop’s first superhero.
Not only has Tip talked down a man from jumping to his death, but Creed’s Scott Stapp says the rapper saved his life.
The Christian rocker explained in an interview on VH1’s “Big Morning Buzz Live” that he had checked into a penthouse of Miami’s Delano Hotel in the midst of a drug binge. Eventually, Stapp jumped over his balcony, falling 40 feet, fracturing his skull and breaking his hip and nose.
“I laid out there for two and a half hours and my guardian angel showed up — rapper T.I.,” said Stapp. “He immediately took care of the situation and saved my life.”
Stapp explained his history with the rapper. “I had met T.I. back in 2004, we were both writing songs for The Passion of The Christ: Songs Inspired By soundtrack and we had briefly interacted there and knew what each looked like,” he recalled.
“We’d talked about being fans of Alabama… It’s ironic — he walked in, and I found out later it was the only room left in the hotel and he came in off the street and came out, and as I’m laying on the ledge, blood fell to [T.I.’s] feet and he looked up and he had an Alabama hat on. I said, ‘roll tide,’ and then he looked at me and put two and two together and really saved my life.”
Creed use to be so sick hell yah tip
creed was never sick, you must have shitty taste in music
Publicity stunt.
man shut the fuck up
how could it be a publicity stunt when it happened in 06 and tip said he would to help keep it from the media?? scott finally decided to come clean about it in his new book.
“well i just heard, the news tooodaay”.
haha, high school days.
why cant people just accept that tip did somethnig right damn all people do is hate.
But good job tip atleast he doing the right thing
I hate creed, Tip should have just……
Nah, I won’t go there…..
But I do hate Creed lol
Hahaha funny bastard

Good man
Good man right there
now give us a callob they could do a nice ass callob about this. Thats good to see instead mothafukas killing eachother all the time. T.I.P still the king

Tip is a good guy. Scott Stapp is a major douche for trying to kill himself when he is a millionaire. I mean come the fuck on.
Money only gets you so far in life. It does not solve everything
money doesn’t give you friends and happiness fool
It’s pretty nice to have lots of it though.

Where do you be getting dem tracklists from

from his mind.
Cocaine… 1 hell of a drug my dude
can believe t.i. snitched again!
do you know the definition of a snitch??
Snitch, is the third ball used in Quidditch. It is a small gold-coloured sphere with silver wings and is about the size of a walnut. It flies around the Quidditch field at high speeds, sometimes pausing and hovering in place. The Seeker’s goal is to catch the Snitch before the other team’s seeker, which is worth one-hundred and fifty points. The game can only end when the Snitch has been caught, or by mutual agreement of the two teams’ Captains; the latter is very rare, however, as one team would have to lose.
The Snitches have flesh memories and remember the touch of the first person who handled them in case of a disputed capture. Everyone, including the maker, has to wear gloves when handling the snitch until releasing one for each game. Because of this a new snitch must be used for each game. In Harry Potter’s very first match, which was against Slytherin, he caught the Snitch in his mouth during the 19911992 school year.
Quidditch, the sport in which Golden Snitches are used.Albus Dumbledore upon his death, left Harry the first golden snitch he had caught. Dumbledore put enchanted writing on the snitch that could only be read when Harry touched it to his mouth. It read, “I open at the close”. Dumbledore had also enchanted the Snitch to hold the Resurrection Stone inside of it, and it would only open for Harry once he accepted the fact that he needed to sacrifice himself in order to defeat Lord Voldemort.
As much as I love to hear the stories of altercations between rappers, I love hearing about all the good stuff that they do too. Like Game saving the life of a bicyclist, and now Tip saving some suicidal rockstar. Way to go Tip! 🙂
I wish T.I. would make an album and just get about 6 producers to work with for the full project. I mean I don’t know maybe the likes of Just Blaze, The Neptunes, Pete Rock, Madlib, Black Milk & Big K.R.I.T. with very few features to show that Tip can hold down a whole project on his own. I feel he needs to drop a real classic to actually get the praise he deserves.
what Joyce said I am taken by surprise that a mom can earn $4864 in four weeks on the internet. did you look at this page (Click on menu Home more information) http://goo.gl/quqo9
LOL TI keeps saving people and y’all can hate all day but Creed fucking rocks
creed sucks ass
They better than YMCMB
like im or hate him tips a good guy
him*
him* lol
Why is TI helping everybody
people like you are whats wrong with the world….
Carrie Keagan is a beauty
Good for TIP. Something tells me he’s not a complete dick like half these others rappers.
wuddup world its cha boi back up in that ass. damn yall i aint gonna respect TIP for this one. this aint how gangsters act, know what I’m saying. hed have more street cred if he let him jump. thats why my boys MGK, WAKA are on top this rap shit
its cha boi
Can’t hate..Good for Scott Stapp that he recovered cause he was a major douche bag back in the day and good for T.I for lending a helping hand..I’ll save the snitch comments for another day…
I feel this is a very poorly written piece. It’s hard to really see what happened? SCott jumped from a balcony and was laying on the sidewalk for 2 hours and then TI came? Can anyone clarify?
dats so un-gangsta. T.I tryna be a superhero. wtf? Rick Ross and Drake would rob diz cracka. fuck T.I. aka white men’s slave. Batman wannabe? fuck you u fuckin pop singer! swag
OW LAWWWD your ass is back, maybe you ought to consider I don’t know….getting a life.
That last paragraph made no sense at all.
lol i know what the fuck?
He was high
I like Tip but this just sounds a little suspect. If it is true then cool that is the humane thing to do. I could be wrong but it just sounds like a publicity stunt to me.
You gotta be messing around, TI saves Creed lead singer to promote Trouble Man? F’ing genius marketing idea.
Illuminati set it all up nigga, shoved his ass off da ledge n made him make up a story dat TI saved his life, TIz gotta make hiz pimp ‘Nati some money nigga… Das how tha ‘Nati rollll biitch
VOUCH THATRUTH
That’s a cool story although it’s funny to me everyone’s praising TI calling him a “good guy” for not leaving a man lying on the ground bleeding to death. I mean, it’s not like he leapt into a burning building or anything.
Christian rockers trying to commit suicide over drug binges, smh…maybe he needed to step back on the “rocker” and focus on the “Christian” part of it first.
Im sure he jumped when he realized he considered himself a christian
“We’d talked about being fans of Alabama”
???
university of alabama. crimson tide. college football.
That’s pretty convenient….but I’m sure a couple years ago it was Florida and a couple years before that it was USC….
Well in 2004 Auburn went undefeated and won the Sugar Bowl. The year before LSU won the title. The next year Texas and Vince Young won.
that blonde is fucking weird
Isn’t he telling the story because it is part of his book. How this a publicity story established by TIP? It is not in his books. Rap sucks at this point anyway.
he could have saved the world by leaving his ass there
If this nigga help somebody once again…
