T.I. Gets 'Intense' on 'Paper Trail'
T.I. has unveiled further details of his much-anticipated sixth studio album, Paper Trail. The Grammy-winner will release the follow-up to 2007’s T.I. vs T.I.P. on September 9th.
“I just want everyone to know that it’s coming out and that I’m going to answer a lot of questions in the music,” the ATL-based rapper says of Paper Trail. “It’s intense and insightful; it’s gonna shake up the game and it’s me at my best.”
In addition to the Danja-produced “No Matter What” and the official first single “Whatever You Like” (Jim Jonsin), Paper Trail is T.I. at his best—melding emotive moments like the harrowing “My Life, Your Entertainment” with celebratory anthems such as the cocky “Turn My Beat Down.”Â
In addition to Danja and Jonsin, the production roster includes Swizz Beatz (“Swing Ya Rag”), DJ Toomp (Kanye West, Young Jeezy), and Drumma Boy (Rick Ross, Yung Joc). The result is T.I.’s most potent and important LP to date.
