T.I.’s interview before getting arrested
Sep 3rd
Before T.I and Tiny got popped by LAPD he did a interview with MTV,
he also had a photoshoot with Upscale Magazine,
Upscale magazine just released the cover, T.I. is featured on not one,
but two covers of UPSCALE magazine’s September/October 2010 issue.
Here’s a few quotes from T.I. in this month’s issue:
On the advice he’d give to young Clifford Harris:
I would say man, if you knew what I knew, you would chill out… I would tell myself you’re going to be alright later on, all you have to do is cool out, you might not see it right now, but you have a reason to fall back. I just hope that I would listen.
On his best and worst character traits:
I can manage to be arrogant or confident as well as be humble and possess a certain level of humility. I can be aggressive and I can also be mild mannered.
On his future in hip hop:
I know I still have the ability to do it, but I don’t know if I have as much passion to do it as I once did… I might find that I’m more effective in another capacity, but I won’t know if I don’t ever try. I have other talents and abilities that I may not be paying any attention to because I have this first one that I’m very fond of and I’ve grown attached to… As an artist I still would like to be better, but as an artist, I think TI has had a stellar career already.
On loyalty getting in the way of business:
If I say I’m gonna ride with you, I’m gonna ride with you. That’s personally, professionally. So even if I know that you might not be all what everyone else thinks you’re cracked up to be, I’m still gonna ride it out with you. It does get tiresome and it does get gruesome at time, but I don’t know no other way to be.
On his favorite quality in a woman:
Just having that instinct of when to take charge and when to fall back.
here is his interview with MTV
Foxy speaks to Sway
Aug 2nd
Foxy Brown recently did an interview with mtv’s Sway,
Foxy states that the media is not concerned when she does good things,
which has led her to having such a tainted image in the press.
“No one seems to care when I donate 100 computers to a school,” Foxy said in the interview.
“But if it’s a little scandalous, they are all over it.”
Foxy also states that when she confronted a journalist who continuously tracked her legal issues, the reporter told her that ‘controversy sells’.
“When I approached Paula Froelich, who was my nemesis at Page Six (NY Daily News),
she told me that if I was doing good things to tell my priest,” Foxy continued. “But people want to hear the controversy and that’s their job, so I have a new found respect for them.”
In addition, Foxy revealed that Diddy gave her some sound advice regarding always staying in the news.
“Puffy told me that some artists are bigger than their records and some artists records are bigger than them,” Foxy said. “He told me that it’s not bad for your name to make headlines because it’s something when Puffy is the headline or Foxy is the headline without selling a record. When I was arrested I had TMZ hiding in trees and stuff and it was crazy.”
