T.I. (Music)	comment	Clifford Joseph Harris, Jr. (born September 25, 1980), better known as T.I (originally, and still known as Tip) is an American rapper, producer, entrepreneur, and actor from Atlanta, Georgia. He's been around since The '90s, but didn't break through until 2003, when he founded his own label Grand Hustle Records. He is notably a Genre Popularizer of southern hip-hop, being that he found great success at a time when most rappers that didn't hail from east or west coasts were considered a novelty (Outkast notwithstanding). His success opened the gates for many later southern rappers to become hugely successful in the mainstream, and has been named "King of the South" for this reason.He also popularized Trap Music. At a time when it was primarily limited to the dirty south, he helped broaden the appeal of the genre (which would later be fused with EDM in the '10s and become unexpectedly popular). Tip is a member of the Pimp Squad Click (P$C), a southern hip-hop group that's had little success compared to him.As the founder of Grand Hustle Records, he has discovered and mentored many popular acts in the Southern United States. These include B.o.B, Trae tha Truth, Travis Scott, Young Dro and, most notably, Iggy Azalea. In 2016, he signed with Jay-Z's Roc Nation label.Outside of that, he's become rather notorious for his numerous arrests by the police and his multiple run-ins with the law; he has been jailed for nearly a year at one point. However, he has since cleaned up his act and has managed to maintain a stable career.Tip is also known for occasionally acting, the most famous examples being his roles as Rashad Swann in ATL and Dave in Ant-Man.Also, he wants Joe Biden.Discography: I'm Serious (2001) Trap Muzik (2003) Urban Legend (2004) King (2006) T.I vs. T.I.P.

T.I. (Music) / int_2f551929	comment	Ode to Intoxication: "At the Bar" and "Poppin' Bottles", most obviously. Some songs would reference drug use such as smoking weed, but these references are virtually absent from his later material (mainly due to Tip cleaning up).

Naturally, he's appeared in a lot of other rappers' songs. Listing them would take all day, but thankfully Wikipedia has a convenient one if you want to know.

T.I. (Music) / int_dbfe8427	comment	Intercourse with You: A common theme, many songs are about how he can have sex. Some range from objectifying the women as being "bitches", while others are more in the sensitive light. For the sensitive, "Whatever You Like" is probably the best example. The best objectifying version would be "No Mediocre".

Due to marketing conflicts, and out of respect for Q-Tip's legendary career and reputation, he shortened his name to T.I., but still uses the "Tip" monkier on occasion.
