TrapMuzik.com: T.I. has put the finishing touch on his incredible 2008 by hitting #1 on the CHR/Top 40 with the blockbuster single, 'Live Your Life (Feat. Rihanna).' The track continues the ATL-based superstar’s seemingly endless streak of chart-toppers, highlighted by the RIAA platinum certified #1 album, PAPER TRAIL. In addition to its success at CHR/Top 40, 'Live Your Life' is also currently sitting pretty atop the Rhythmic airplay chart for the fourth consecutive week, followed at #2 by T.I.’s own 'Whatever You Like,' the RIAA 2x platinum certified first single from PAPER TRAIL. The latter held the #1 position for nine straight weeks before ceding the top spot to 'Live Your Live,' giving T.I. sole possession of #1 for 13 consecutive weeks.
Furthermore, a new single, “Dead and Gone (Feat. Justin Timberlake),” has just begun its ascent up the Rhythmic chart, debuting this week at #35 with-a-bullet. A companion video clip is currently in production, with a premiere date to be announced shortly.

In the 80's Bobby Brown's "Roni" told us a story about the sweetest little girl in the whole wide world. Fast forward to 2009, where Mike Jones, T.I. and Bobby Brown himself will reiterate that same concept to us. The three have come together to remake the classic song. "It was Tip's concept," Mike Jones stated. The song will be featured on Mike Jones' next album, dropping in '09. Check out the full MTV article now!
MTV.com: Why should bloggers, magazine publishers and a-hole rock critics have all the fun?
With year-end madness sweeping the nation, best-album and best-song lists are everywhere, but more often than not, we don't get to hear from the men and women who are on those lists: the artists themselves.
So MTV News decided to ask some of your favorite musicians — plus a celeb blogger whose tastemaking abilities have grown to legendary status and one rather prominent radio/TV personality — to name their favorite albums and songs of 2008. Some of them submitted simple lists, others felt the need to explain their picks, but all of them provide a rather fascinating glimpse at just what the people you were listening to were listening to themselves.
"I enjoyed Kanye's album, even though that's not really a rap album, but I still enjoyed it. It's different. Of course Wayne's album. The Jeezy album. I really like that record he did, 'Crazy World.' I like the new Coldplay record. ... Maroon 5, that whole project. Oh, and Estelle's Shine. I like that album a lot."
Spinner.com Best Songs of 2008: No. 21 'Live Your Life'

Spinner.com: #21 - 'Live Your Life,' T.I. feat. Rihanna
The Southern rapper spent most of 2008 at home. Under house arrest. One can only assume his current sitch was some kind of catalyst for 'Live Your Life,' which is outright uplifting. With its larger-than-life production and Rihanna vocals that are slightly beyond real-life, the song is T.I.'s very own 'Lose Yourself' -- an up-and-at 'em anthem that could easily have an unexpected life as walk-on music for motivational speakers.
I am freshly a second semester freshmen in college as I just finished my first semester...ugh...like yesterday? I am officially on Christmas break and loving everybit of it right now. I can actually sit down without thinking about what the hell I have to do as far as school work!

Don't stray to those other fickle T.I. fansites. Oops.
Yesterday, T.I. had the chance to speak at Cole Middle School on getting an education, working hard and staying out of trouble. He stood in the middle of a large circle discussing and incident that happened last month in which a gun was discharged in a Cole classroom by one of its students. "That's horrible that any of you feel you need a gun in order to come to school," T.I. told the students. When T.I. welcomed questions at the end, a teacher at juvenile hall asked if he had a message for the incarcerated student who brought the weapon to school, T.I. stated "Tell him it's never too late to learn from his mistakes. What's important is how he's going to position himself to move forward."

With only a few months of freedom left, T.I. spoke about his upcoming prison sentence during a recent appearance on the Howard Stern Show. Tip is due to start serving a year and a day in early 2009.
When quieried on conjugal visits, Tip revealed that he won’t be accepting visits from family, friends or business associates. “I don’t accept visits,” Tip told Howard. ”I want people to remember as I am. I’ll see you on release day.”
The self-proclaimed “king of the south” also revisited the federal gun possessions that lead to his forthcoming sentence.
“It’s definitely not about looking cool or people seeing you carrying anything around,” he explained. “If you were familiar with my past, you would recognize that there are certain significant dangers that are very real. In 2006 my best friend got killed right in front of me. They made an attempt on my life.”
To let Tip tell it, those days are over. “The thing is right now, I’m the safest I’ve ever been,” he shred. ”I’m federally monitored daily.”
