T.I. is back with his first single off his new album that, according to T.I., is much more aggressive than his previous effort Paper Trail.
Rapper T.I. has revealed that August 24th is the official release date for his new untitled album, his first since 2008’s hit, Paper Trail.
T.I. was sentenced to a year in prison last May, for attempting to purchase machine guns and silencers in October of 2007.
He is currently finishing the terms of his sentence. Last week, he was officially released from a half-way house to house arrest, with a curfew.
The rapper released a statement via his official website TrapMuzik.com last night (April 1) and talked about his time behind bars and the direction his new album is taking.
“I’m happy to be home. I feel better than I’ve ever felt,” T.I. said. Idea learned a lot, grew a lot. And now, I think it’s time to put all of that to good use.”
T.I. said he didn’t do much writing while he served his time a low-security prison facility located in Forrest Arkansas.
