It seems lately that after T.I. got off the hook for the most part on that huge weapons charge he was smacked with earlier this year, and after only getting a year in prison and some community service, we're seeing a brand new T.I.
Clifford Harris used to be a real badass, and you could tell progressively he was getting more and more gangsta with each CD released. Especially with T.I. vs. T.I.P., you could hear T.I.'s anger and roughness in his flows.
Seems though that the bad side of T.I. is starting to take a back seat, since he has to save face and show the judge that he's on his best behavior. He went back to writing down his lyrics and his flow is a lot different, more controlled and lyrical instead of angry and thugged out.
With a bunch of new remixes that T.I. has hopped on, it's good to see a refreshing new (or old depending on how you look at it..) style. Apparently "Paper Trail" is supposed to be a different kind of album, comparable to Tupac's "Me Against The World". We can only wait til "Paper Trail" is officially released, but with T.I.'s new style, we can't say that he's changed for the worse.

T.I. HOUSE ARREST RULES...FREE TO DO ANYTHING HE WANTS...
After T.I. sightings have been spreading around after his recent sentence, a recent interview with T.I.'s lawyer has determined the status of where and when Tip can go places outside of his home.
It was previously thought that T.I. was on house arrest, but his lawyer reveals that he is actually able to go places between certain times, like a curfew.
When T.I. is not working, his curfew is 11 p.m. to 6 a.m, but when he is working it's 1 a.m. to 8 a.m.
Between the hours that curfew doesn't apply, Tip is free to leave his home and go places. He is followed around by a full time monitor and needs permission to leave town and permission is given to do community service or work.

T.I. STEPS AWAY FROM SIGNATURE SOUND ON NEW ALBUM PAPER TRAIL
After going platinum on his last go round, T.I. decided to veer away from his style that he used on his most recent album T.I. vs. T.I.P. using the paperless raps and going straight into the booth ala Jay-Z and Lil Wayne to drop his tracks. After his gun charges, T.I. is apparently trying to regain connections with his old producers to get back his old sound.
DJ Toomp, who produced other T.I. hits like 24's, U Don't Know Me, and What You Know is back to producing for T.I. on the album Paper Trail, whcih he said some compare to 2Pac's Me Against The World.
Because of his sentence, the album will have about 1 year to be completed and promoted before T.I. has to go to jail for 366 days.

T.I. MIGHT APPEAR ON THE G UNIT GANGSTA GRILLZ
Even though T.I. is under house arrest and waiting for his trial, he's been on the grind recording numerous songs, including the Lupe Fiasco - Superstar remix with Young Jeezy and T.I.
A T.I. representative said that we should expect a large number of guest appearances with Tip. With recent news surfacing about the G Unit Gangsta Grillz mixtape, it's a huge possibility that T.I. would be on a song or several songs with 50 and the Unit.
T.I.'s new single for his album Paper Trail should be coming out in the near future. Paper Trail is going to drop sometime in September.

T.I. IS FREE TEMPORARILY TO ATTEND EASTER SERVICES
T.I. has been allowed as a goodwill gesture to be freed temporarily on March 20 to attend Easter Services. He will be allowed to spend time away from his home for once on Sunday, to attend New Birth Missionary Baptist Church services.
The judge has ordered that T.I. be accompanied by a court approved monitor and his attorney.
He is allowed to leave the house from 8:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. since he got weapons charges filed against him.
T.I. was charged with possession of unregistered machine guns and silencers on Oct. 13. He is a convicted felon making it illegal to possess any of those things.
T.I. is currently under house arrest and must get approval for all of his visitors.
The Atlanta rapper may face up to 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine on each of the weapons charges filed against him.
