T.I. is a southern rapper who used to be known T.I.P, which stands for "Ten Inch Playa". His rap alias was then changed to T.I. (obviously taking of the "P") because his advisors and producers were worried that his current rap alias would be confused with Q-tip, another rapper.
"T.I. is the king from the dirty south."

Words you can keep
A skilled southern rapper who is praised by his peers as one of the hottest lyricists of the 21st Century. Very diverse in content matter, ranging from emotional and introspective songs (eg 'I Still Luv U') to smooth R&B anthems (eg 'Let's Get Away') to hard street anthems (eg 'You Don't Know Me') to braggadocious tracks which show off his lyrical ability and flow (eg 'I'm Serious'). Biggest hit to date is 'Bring 'Em Out' but was first given mainstream love after his mega-hit 'Rubberband Man.' Claims to be the 'King Of The New South,' which is not far from the truth. Represents Atlanta, Westside Bankhead.
That new T.I track is DOPE!

A rapper, self-proclaimed as "King of the South", was born on September 25, 1980, and recently released his album "King". It has several hit singles such as "What You Know", and "Why You Wanna". His real name is Clifford Joseph Harris Jr. His original rap alias was T.I.P. which stood for "Ten Inch Playa" but then out of respect for the rapper "Q-tip", he changed it to T.I. He's definitely a good rapper, and all the haters above my definition need to check what theyre saying cuz a lot of it is bull$hit. T.I. is also a member of P$C, and owns his record label, "Grand Hustle Records". Some of his other hits include "Rubberband Man", "Bring Em Out", "Motivation", "Asap", and "You Don't Know Me". He is also featured in several hit songs such as "Shoulder Lean" by Young Dro, and "Soldier" by Destiny's Child. He has a beef with Lil Flip, who in my opinion is a lame rapper with stupid songs that yell "Flip. Flip.", for half the song. Weep. How sad. umm yea thats pretty much all about T.I.
"Dontcha know i got key by the three when i chirp shawty chirp back. loaded knapsack where im holdin all the work at. what you know about that. what you know about that. what you know about that, hey i know all about that."

*Lookin' at the life through my rearview, all the problems I had
Could be seen alot clearer after time had passed
Known for livin' so fast, they wonder how he don't crash
With 220 on the dash, he constantly mashin'
(Why don't he slow down?) They be constantly askin'
But me in the fast lane is like metal and magnets
Now I ain't tryna say that it's the way of the masses
But it, so hard to change, I love this shit with a passion
Since me and Sigel cuttin' classes, showin' our ass
Shootin' out in broad day in the middle of traffic
I remember sellin' crack faster than I could bag it
A shame I ain't playin' with you shorty, I ain't braggin'
Me and Cap got life, some other folk got blasted
Had a partner OD'd and after this all happened
It's like the only thing that kept a pimp from cryin' and laughin'
And the Lord smiled on me at the end of the madness
I never thought that I'd make it this far rappin'
For introducin' the youth to what we now call trappin'
Considered now a classic, who'da imagined?
Me in Milano, gettin' models in next year's fashions
So nowadays, they can call me old fashioned
But it's way too much cash to see blue lights flashin'
So I guess the moral of this here class is
Life about who make it now not about who make it the fastest*

Word of the Day on August 25, 2026
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
