We all know Tip has been arrested on illegal drug charges, but you probably don’t know that he’s yet to return to ATL to face the music.
According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, T.I. is currently not back in the city after being detained in Los Angeles after making an illegal U-turn resulted in the discovery of alleged drugs such as marijuana and methamphetamine.
T.I., 29, reportedly contacted his federal probation officer immediately after he was arrested in West Hollywood. A deputy reported he pulled over the rapper’s luxury car, a Maybach, after it made an illegal U-turn. T.I. and his wife, Tameka “Tiny” Cottle, were arrested around 10:30 p.m. Wednesday and they were released from jail at about 4 a.m. Thursday after posting $10,000 bail each.
T.I.’s probation officer has told him to return to Atlanta.
One of T.I.’s lawyers, Ed Garland, told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Thursday he expected his client to be back in the city within 24 hours.
No hearing has yet been scheduled with U.S. District Judge Charles Pannell, according to his office.
Look, I know everybody is looking at me to say what you are all thinking, but I just don’t have the energy. Clearly some people can’t seem to realize how lucky and blessed they are thus the constant legal troubles. The first time I went in. This time what’s the point?
Drugs, weapons, multiple arrests = a thug to me. But he’s been saying that since day one so how mad can any of us really be. My heart goes out to the staff at Grand Hustle who put their blood, sweat and tears into keeping the label. and TI relevant, and hot in streets — and more important at his label. The people at Grand Hustle don’t deserve this.
It’s just a disgusting situation. One that needs to be analyzed, not sensationalized.
