We were THRILLED to hang out with the legendary rapper T.I. in Charlotte as he was in town promoting his new album Trouble Man: Heavy Is The Head in stores on December 18th.

Mr. Incognito talked with T.I. about how he balances having a very successful hip hop career along with a reality TV show, record label, and family life at home in Atlanta.

T.I. felt “honored and privileged enough” to be on the Boss TV show for the second season, and he’s very excited to have worked along with Jason Bateman in his upcoming comedy film Identity Theft being released on February 8th.  Musically nowadays, T.I. enjoys listening to Big K.R.I.T, Kendrick Lamar, A$AP Rocky, Meek Mill, B.o.B., and his new group D.O.P.E which reminds him of the old days with The Hot Boyz.

Watch the whole interview with Mr. Incognito and see T.I.’s shout-out to the brothas out there that are raising kids in the Queen City!

Watch T.I. talk with the kids of Turning Point Academy about the consequences of bullying and how to improve on their lives to “Stand Up Speak Out.”

Be sure to pick up T.I.’s new album Trouble Man: Heavy Is The Head in stores on Tuesday, December 18th, and on iTunes.
