T.I.?has been added?to?NBC?s new ad campaign?which?features musical re-interpretations of NBC?s famous chimes. ?When word came out that Tip was one of the musicians, television buffs worldwide speculated about the change. ?Would?T.I.?rap the chimes? Would he rap over a chime beat? How could he possible change those historic three notes?
Well check out the video above to see exactly what was done. ?Well done Tip…very well done!
Ludacris, T.I. and Young Jeezy all stood in support of Democratic Senate Candidate Jim Martin during yesterday’s “Rally For Change”. ?The event was held yesterday evening at the Georgia State Capital and all braved the cold weather to rally and show support for their favorite candidate. Martin is up against Republican incumbent Sen. Saxby Chambliss in a runoff election for the U.S. Senate seat today (Dec. 2nd). The campaign has been plagued with negative ads from the republican candidate, one of which states to vote against Jim Martin “to stop Barack Obama’s radical agenda.” ?I saw it during the Falcons game Sunday and almost fell outta that barstool! ?
If you’re in Georgia, PLEASE make a point of returning to the polls today to cast your VOTE!
While most of us were feeding our faces with Cajun Turkey (I plead the fifth), T.I. was over at Turner Field on Thanksgiving Day assisting Hosea William’s Feed The Hungry Foundation. ?The event attracted nearly 22,000 needy Atlantans and fed all with no problems due to the generosity of several well known ATLiens. ?Tip was commended in raising nearly $100,000 within two hours on a local radio show Wednesday evening and Young Jeezy, was said to have donated $5,000 towards the event.
“I shouldn’t be but I’m amazed by their giving,” said Omilami, daughter of the late Hosea Williams. “I’ve been doing this for 39 years but I’ve never seen a year like this one in terms of donations.” (Source)

“The whole label lame…except Tip and Dro”
Bankhead Beef has taken another turn this week. ?After the Dirty Awards fights, Shawty Lo hit up VladTV?with an exclusive interview, straight from D4L studios. ?Lo takes the opportunity to speak about Big Kuntry King’s recent threat to release some taped phone conversations between the two of them. ?During his talk, he mentions how Kuntry is just all mouth and that he shouldn’t even be talking cause he’s one of the “lames” on the label. ?Lo spoke almost highly of TIp in the video above, he also recently told MTV news that ?he don’t know where Tip’s head is….but he ain’t the one to be disrespected: ??
?[Me and Tip’s conversation] ended on a positive note with the conversation,? Lo said. ?I don?t know where he is [with the beef]. I guess he just be talking. One thing about it, Shawty Lo ain?t no punk. T.I. is just a rapper. He knows how to read a book good. Where I live is for real. I ain?t got nothing against homes. He?s got family, I got family. I?m not trying to kill him, he?s not trying to kill me. I got fans that love me. He?s not not gonna run all over me. I ain?t Lil? Flip.?
Ummm….Ok. So who’s fighting now. ?Can somebody draw up a diagram or something cause I’m getting confused.
