Somewhere in Georgia's Henry County, tucked away in his home with a 24 hour GPS system monitoring his every move, lives an (allegedly) unarmed and sober rapper named T.I. (née Clifford Harris Jr.). The 27-year-old was recently arrested when cops found him (allegedly) in possession of three machine guns, two silencers and three other firearms that were in the car he was driving and six additional firearms which were found in his home.
Harris managed to get himself out of jail last October on $3 million bond. And according to a recent interview with Rolling Stone, the rapper also known as T.I.P. has been using his newly acquired spare time to continue work on his next album, entitled Paper Trail.
He told the magazine that he's collaborated with Danja, DJ Toomp, Little C and Keith Mack, among others. No word yet on when the album will drop, but when it does it will be a throwback to his first album, I'm Serious, as T.I. reportedly wrote out its lyrics long-hand before entering the studio, just as he did with Serious.
"I’ve got about thirty-some tracks done, but I’ve got like sixteen that I’m in love with and I’m still working," he told RS. "After you get those sixteen, you try to make sixteen more to top them and you pick the best."
