By: brooklyniteOne


T.I.T.I. topped the Billboard charts this past week, selling 468,000 copies and reaching the #1 slot for a second time in his career.

His fifth album, “T.I. vs. T.I.P.,” outsold releases from former Destiny’s Child singer Kelly Rowland (“Ms. Kelly”) and rock band Velvet Revolver (“Libertad”).

T.I. first hit the Billboard #1 with his 2006 album, “King,” which sold close to 522,000 units when it debuted.

His latest LP features tracks “Big Things Poppin’ (Do It)” and “You Know What It Is,” and its next single is rumored to be “Touchdown,” featuring rap star Eminem.

Touchdown is another heaping pile of crap. What the hell was eminem thinking?

Is the t.i cd any good? cause on the day the album came out two of my friends went to go buy it but said it was'nt that great/

Who buys this trash? seriously if you did buy this you are supporting the gencocide of the black people because of this crack music. He is not even a good lyricist... Simple rhymes and metas. You all bought this because you are pawns of viacom and clearchannel... Just because it was show on the screen and you heard it on the radio 50 times a day doesn't mean you have to buy it. Ti is getting rich of this... His f'ing label is. I won't stand for this! support real music! down with viacom! down with clearchannel! down the pop music! down with the puppets!

The cd is hot to me.numbers 3,6,7,and 16 are just sick!thta's just to name a couple because it's a well put together project overall.

T.i is an above average rapper - although i have to admit that the rapping "average" standard has dropped somewhat in the past few years. Urban legend was the t.i cd for me so far - king was really bubblegum for the most part - but hey dude has to get that money eh? the cd will only hit sa maybe in nov - i listened to a few tracks online tho... Watch what you say is blazing hot - jigga and lit that sh!t up....

Stop sh*ttiing!!!!!he do ok!

I think t.i. Is alittle over-rated
Posted by bama_dude
I think he is under rated to be honest . He has the best 1st week sales for a second year running and individuals keep trashin' him of his success . He's the best in the industry at the moment.

Ti deserves his current spot as the top dog in rap. Shoot, i remember when he was just the third guy in the bone crusher video. I was listenin to trap muzik just yesterday and he's come a long way from the trap. American gangster, in theaters...... Sometime this year.

Man!!! i'm not surprised by these comments. When artist first come out (trap muzik) they actually put all they got into b/c they dont want to flop. And every c.d. From then on gets worst and worst, except for one artist lil wayne. (period)

Touchdown is classic

Stop hatin on my husband
Posted by Wifey
This cd was more hype than anything, trap music and urban legend put him in his current spot. King was an alright album as well but there are only a few good songs on this cd. I like ti because he has alot of skill but this cd doesn't really show it. Congrats on the numbers but sales do not equal quality and this cd is not a good cop. No sweat, the intro and watch what you say to me stand out because the rest of the cd isn't good especially the touchdown track with em. Once again, this is more hype than anything

Point blank the cd was made for the fans...ive listened to t.i. For years way b4 king way b4 urban legend. It has nothing to do with viacom and clearchannel and honestly i dont hear it 50 times a day. If you like it buy it, you have your own opinions. Its music everyone gets money rather brainwashed kids buy it or not. Plan and simple is music and hip-hop at its finest or it wouldnt have sold gold all ready. This is why t.i. Is king, as for touchdown.... Except the fact 2 totally different rappers are able to make a song...when i got the album i was like t.i. Feat eminem...no way. Im glad touchdown will be the next single. Em is my dawg a lyricist master...and i bet you all that when king mathers drops you all wil cop it. These thread are getting so lame. You guys think u know everything about hiphop and rap.

Another album from a garbage rapper sold to thousands of idiots
Posted by AZistheg.o.a.t
I have not heard any album of t.i. But u got to give credit when credit is due and when you sell that much in the first week your doing something right no matter what people say after that cuz now in the rap game your not just selling your music your selling yourself and if u can sell yourself to the public and they buy it all the haters can do is sit there and watch so no matter what i think or anyone else thinks he has been very consistent on selling his music and self to the public so man to man i salute

I heard da [lp] it waz d0pe it waz fire....datz dat st8 s0uthern musik shyt!
Posted by d`fr3sh
I love t.i!! his music is real; he raps about his life. He's been through a lot but now he's made it against all odds. I'm glad that he has not let fame or fortune get to his head; nothing has changed accept his address! i see more good music coming from him in the future. Watch out hataz!

Posted by t.i.
Yes of course this cd was made for the fans, but in an interview he said he did it because it was the last thing he and his close friend phil talked about before dude's death. T.i. Is a good rapper so why hate!!! i hate people who only like rappers because they hot for a minute but then dropped them when someone else comes along. To you people you are not true fans! to the people who are hating what are you doing with your life that is so great? at least he getting paper!!!
Posted by mysterious
Oh yeah, maybe he don't come to the streets anymore because he know how stupid some people can act. Some people just don't know how to act when they see famous people. Ya'll the ignorant ones who act like they never saw anybody in their god damn life!!!
Posted by mysterious

t.i is brilliant. He making money and he dont give a F*ck about all the people hatting on him. He going to continue to make records and still be rich, and ya'll still gonnna be broke hatting. This lattest album was not the best but it sold. But it dont matter if the next single is lame its still going to sell because its t.i. I mean really e-40 is whaack and is still getting paid.... So it dont matter.....
