You can take T.I for his word-or most of us have been, until just now.
In his Swagger Like us verse, he said “You know see Weezy for the wordplay, Jeezy for the bird-play, Kanyeezy for diversity and me (T.I) for controversy,”
And this time, he is making headlines for controversial reasons.
T.I released a video in which he blasts Gucci and other famous brands for Blackface clothing.
In the video, he can be heard saying “Our Consumer Base Is The Strongest & Largest In The World”
Fans weren’t pleased with this statement and gone ahead to leave not so pleasant reactions:
Changed Ways said “This nigga stupid, Europe and China have the biggest consumer base, what’s this retarded fucker saying…..lolllllllllllllllllll Consumer base is based on population, is America bigger than Europe or China? no………………lol…He’s just watched the Black Panther film…”
BallzDeep added “niggas didn’t make gucci hot……niggas bought gucci cause it was hot. period. otherwise where is state property? phat farm? fubu?Rocawear?”
Some have even taken it a step further and said that T.I is not even black.
Tusenl said, ”
Time to set The Record Straight.
