Rap-Up.com || New Music: T.I. f/ Pink

T.I. rocks with fellow rebel Pink on “Guns and Roses,” one of the many collaborations off his eighth album Trouble Man: Heavy Is the Head. The King weathers the ups and downs of love, while the pop-rocker shares her pain on the T-Minus-produced song, which Tip describes as a “bittersweet romantic story.”

“We found that we had a few things in common,” T.I. tells Rap-Up.com of his collaborator. “We clicked. She real people, she from the streets. I’m a real cat, I’m from the streets. We found ourselves in rooms where we were like, ‘You know what? These people fake as hell in here. Let’s get out of here.’”

Due Tuesday, Trouble Man also includes appearances from R. Kelly, André 3000, Lil Wayne, A$AP Rocky, CeeLo Green, Akon, and more.

‘Trouble Man: Heavy Is The Head’ is such a great album, I was shocked, I knew T.I. was good but that album will go down as a classic, no doubt. Hopefully, people don’t sleep on it and actually support, hands down the best rap album I’ve heard in years. The skits are great, the songs are amazing, the lyrics are on point, T.I. delivered with this one. The song ‘Hallelujah’ should win a Grammy, along with Trouble Man taking the Best Rap Album award at the 2014 Grammy Award Show.

its sad that an artist can pour his/her heart out on a song and we don’t support it that’s why we’re stuck with pop/hip-hop cause when someone makes real hip-hop we don’t support it, I know I will, everyone else BUY Trouble Man!!!

this has to be the 3rd single, then I’d release Hallelujah as the 4th and Wonderful Life as the 5th. I really enjoyed the Cruisin song though, its different.

WOW!! This song is a complete ripoff of Tora Woloshin’s song, GUNS AND ROSES. Coincidence it was sent out to TI’s people for collaboration several months ago?? It may sound different but they completely ripped the name, some of the lyric and the idea. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3OMupolbLtg
