…that he completely understands why y’all are mad at him.
In an open letter posted online, Tip address his fans and sends love to his haters:
Thank you to all that took the time to check out my new video GET BACK UP with my homie Chris Brown. And a bigger thanks to those of you who decided to comment (good & bad).
To all of you who say ?He should practice what he preaches? and ?How could he do something so stupid?AGAIN?? You?re absolutely right and I couldn?t agree with you more.
But you know what? As history has shown us before, I find my greatest inspiration during my darkest hours.
So all fans of music, T.I. or not, should be able to agree that NO MERCY will surely be my best work yet. After all isn?t that what it?s all about? If I never went to prison, never did drugs, never f?ed up again, did everything right and never made great music?.would you even care enough to comment on T.I.? Doubt it, so bear that in mind while you jump to your conclusions guys.
Martin Luther King once said ?Notice not the comments of your enemies but the silence of your friends.? So although I?m still in touch?watching, reading and listening, I?m not concerned with what negative people say more than I am with what positive people don?t. Guess that?s enough for now? Love you all still, whether you still love me or not. REAL TALK!!!
And I would like to give a special I LOVE U to @star_omg and @tinymajormama. ? Tip (source)
As you know, Tip is currently in an Arkansas jail serving his 11 month sentence for probation violation. Judging from this letter, he seems to have accepted responsibility for his stupidity.
Maybe he really is on the path to redemption… this time.
