Rap-Up.com || T.I. to Serve Jail Time in Arkansas

With just 11 days until T.I. heads to jail, the King of the South now knows where he will be spending the next year and a day.

According to TMZ, Tip will serve his sentence for weapons charges at a low security prison in Forrest City, Arkansas. He is scheduled to report to the facility by noon on Tuesday, May 26.

He’ll likely have a cellmate, remain in the general population of about 1,500 inmates, and be assigned to work detail.

Before checking himself into prison though, T.I. will shoot a video for “Don’t Forget,” his collaboration with Mary J. Blige. The song is the first single from his Paper Trail rerelease, due this summer.

Glad to see that hooligan getting locked up. No one needs to buy as many machine guns as he was trying to buy.

Re-releasing “Paper Trail” is pointless. The album was a success and had 4 top ten hits. He should have put the song with Mary J. Blige on an upcoming album.
I don’t see him serving the full sentence either.
