http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.58816&rws=%2Fti%2Ftop-tracks.rssThe self-proclaimed king of Southern hip-hop, T.I. has built a career based on catchy nihilism that banks on both self-determination and dope-boy darkness. The frequently incarcerated Atlanta native is small in stature, ill-tempered and walks with the swagger of Jay-Z, a combination that prompts his critics to dub him hip-hop's Napoleon. His first offering, 2001's <I>I'm Serious</I>, didn't exactly burn up the charts, but it featured production from the Neptunes and displayed a tenderness that subsequent releases would downplay. In many ways, 2003's <I>Trap Muzik</I> was T.I.'s official unveiling; the irresistible single "Rubber Band Man" served as a raison d'etre of sorts for the star. After spending time in prison for cocaine charges, he returned in 2004 with the comparatively cheery <I>Urban Legend</I>. Between the release of that album and 2006's <i>King</i>, he had begun to challenge 50 Cent and Eminem as the most famous emcee in the world. T.I.'s next album, 2007's <I>T.I. vs. T.I.P.</I>, explored the division between the rapper's street persona and his corporate interest. Mining dark territory and featuring Justin Timberlake, 2008's <I>Paper Trail</I> continued to cement his status as the king. - Sam ChennaultHitmakersen720Mon, 23 Nov 2009 03:57:18 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.58816&rws=%2Fti%2Ftop-tracks.rss The self-proclaimed king of Southern hip-hop, T.I. has built a career based on catchy nihilism that banks on both self-determination and dope-boy darkness.
