T.I.: When I First Met Toomp I Was Looking For A Brick! Dope Boyz In The Trap, Trap Muzik

[@BlackJohnnyCage]

T.I. first 4 albums were a journey to watch! After KING & ATL dropped he was untouchable up & til Phil passing.

[@BlackJohnnyCage]

@JDH1985 I never discredited Paper Trail "WTF" are you comprehending?

[@gradeazay4934]

Libra go too. really tip never dropped a bad album. I'll say t.i vs tip probably is the least of my favorite.

[@gradeazay4934]

@JDH1985 paper work was straight I remember playing about my issue when didn't nobody really know about nip like that. But yeah no mercy I forgot about that one I thought that was a mixtape. But I think paper trail was his last great album. The intro.🔥🔥🔥 He always had dope intros to his albums. This was when they was questioning his lyricism cause Wayne was hot and he went off that whole album. My bad I'm thinking about I'm illy not the intro

[@BlackJohnnyCage]

@JDH1985 I didn't mention his entire discography because that wasn't my point, I was really speaking on his journey between where he started to where the trouble started to really hurt his career. If The big Phil murder never took place TIP would've been at Jay-Z status by Paper Trail.

[@willjones5739]

It's sad how we know as fans that T.I. ranks high amongst the best when it comes to music catalog and lyrics, but in my opinion, his credit is still not given enough.

[@haitianflavo4804]

It’s his fault tho. I fw tip heavy but he had done a lot of shit that turned people off

Luda is way more talented though. It’s more difficult to be an artist like Luda it takes more skill.

I bought I’m Serious while stationed in Korea. One of my closest friends in the military was from the ATL and bought two CDs of I’m Serious because he said TI would be superstar and he had to have more than one in case one stopped working. I think he listened to this album every day. When we lost him to an IED our team chief played the album from beginning to end that night. I can hear him now, saying “ shawty fire” 😂😂

[@michaeldonaldson294]
