T.I. to Gucci & Louis Vuitton: “No Harsh Feelings…” (Video)
I’m sorry to report that Tip won’t be releasing his “Swing Ya Rag” due to protests of copyright infringement from Gucci and Louis Vuitton.
“We spoke to them. The video, it’s done. But I guess it’s one of those corporate things where they don’t wanna be associated or affiliated with a certain type of brand. A T.I. video ain’t the best look in their eyes right now. No harsh feelings.”
“At the end of the day, it’s gonna be a time when somebody is gonna have to sit at my table, and we gonna have the same type of conversations. It might be something as simple as just a party or endorsement. One thing is, the world goes around and comes back. I can take it when it’s my turn.” (Source)

Speaking of….has anyone heard that song about Polos on the radio recently. I was like “are these dudes rappin bout shirts??” SMH Umma go look that up.
