T.I. Talks About Dolla (Murdered today in Los Angeles)

Rapper TI


T.I. was born Clifford Joseph Harris Jr. on September 25, 1980, in Bankhead, Atlanta, Georgia. He was raised by his grandparents and was a drug dealer as a teenager. T.I. explained the origin of his nickname Rubber Band Man, saying, “We used to wear rubber bands to signify how much money, how much blow we had.” He was nicknamed “Tip” after his paternal great-grandfather. Kawan “KP” Prather, a record executive, discovered and signed T.I. when he was a teenager. Upon signing with Arista Records subsidiary LaFace Records in 2001, he shortened his name to T.I. out of respect for label mate Q-Tip.
