b. Atlanta, Georgia, USA. Rapper T.I. was one of countless up-and-coming artists to emerge from the south of the USA during the early twenty-first century. T.I. was first exposed to hip-hop at the age of seven, and by the time he was 11 he had decided to pursue a career in rap seriously. A few problems with the law could not derail his dream, and he signed a recording contract with Arista Records, resulting in the release of his 2001 debut, I'm Serious. On this collection the young rapper collaborated with the Neptunes, Jazze Pha, DJ Troomp, and Beenie Man. The album failed to storm the charts (peaking just within the Billboard Top 100), resulting in T.I. leaving Arista shortly after. In the ensuing period, he issued a few releases independently on the Grand Hustle label, put together several mix tapes, and appeared on Bone Crusher's "Never Scared". T.I. was not without a major label deal for long though, as he signed with Atlantic Records and released his second album, Trap Muzik, in 2003. T.I. also put his new-found fortune to good use, teaming up with his uncle to start a company that refurbishes homes in some of Atlanta's less fortunate neighbourhoods. In late 2004, T.I. released Urban Legend, followed by King in 2006, and then T.I. vs T.I.P. the following year. Paper Trail followed in 2008.
