T.I. released his album Paperwork last year on Columbia Records, but the southern legend is now independent. He spoke to MTV about being newly independent, his new EP Da Nic, and most importantly, his next two albums. Hit the jump to see what T.I. has to say about his upcoming projects.
This is what T.I has to say about his recent and upcoming projects:
Paperwork was the artsy blend of musical tones [incorporating] soulful R&B — a Blueprint–ish approach to an album. Da’ Nic and The Dime Trap [will be] unadulterated trap music and [the third album] will be my version of 808s and Heartbreak.
His own 808s & Heartbreak? That’s interesting. Does that mean the Atlanta artist will be singing with auto-tune? He also said he wants to work with “young, hungry, talented producers that are making headway in the game like Metro Boomin, Mike Will Made It, 808 Mafia and Zaytoven” on his forthcoming album The Dime Trap. We’re not sure what we’re more hyped for, but we’ll take some new TIP any day of the week.
