T.I. has been cutting new records since his release from prison earlier this fall, setting to work on the follow-up to last year’s No Mercy. Speaking with The Boombox, Tip gave an update on the LP, stating that it will most likely arrive in February 2012 and that he’s in no rush to finish it.
“I mean, I don’t feel a certain amount of pressure to get it done by a certain time. I feel the usual pressure of making an album my life, like every time I do an album I feel the pressure of needing to make it my life, you know? But I take that pressure and apply it to my creative process. The tentative date is looking like February,” he said.
The self-proclaimed King of the South also addressed why he’s rapping harder now more than ever, but conceding that he has nothing to prove to anyone else.
“Nah. I mean, I got something to prove to myself. I ain’t got nothing to prove to nobody else ’cause at the end of the day, I’m a marquee artist and I think my numbers speak for themselves. I’m on my eighth album and ain’t nobody eight albums in right now, who’s really relevant. Besides Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, it ain’t a lot [laughs]. You know what I’m saying? Ain’t a lot. So, I got something to prove to myself, not nobody else. I always knew and I will always know what I’m capable of.”

I think the album will be a breath of fresh air from this faggot music Young Honeys making.
Yadig has many screen names I see
you’re tanktop screaming “T.I. I don’t fit you”
1 name….eminem
tentative date. so it will actually be out on december 2012 maybe?
More solid release dates have been postponed by months and months. Fucked up phenomenon.
they’re rappers, point blank. they spend a life of smokin dank and poppin bottles, swagger jackin in the club with women on all fours.. so their work always gets delayed
only difference here is Tip’s not so much fuckin’ shit up in the club no more. he’s been jumpin on remixes and freestyles like 07 Wayne since he got out. I think at the most it should be up till March
IM SO SORRY LIL WAYNE WAS A HOMO
He never releases albums that early more like summer or n September ….. Dang ti u going soft, again
