Above are pictures of rapper/actor's T.I's farewell party held on the 24th of May at the Velvet Room in Atlanta .
People in Atlanta love this guy and I understand that But niggas go to jail longer for less offence than gun possession. To all my people out there sad that my guy TIP is going away for 366 days I don't share your emotion. I do feel bad for his long time baby momma and their 22 children because they won't see their father for a year. But let's put this all in perspective. If you (Regular Negro) were charged with federal gun charges how long would the government put yo black ass away for. 10 years? 15 years? When you got out you can't a job. Why? You got felonies. Life sure would be easy if I had T.I. money where I could get charged with felony gun charges and do a year of house arrest, 1500 hours community(which includes a reality show), and an additional year in jail. Then get out and have millions safe in the bank. Sounds like a feat when mentioned together but I'd rather do that then face 10-20 years in the slammer. I'm just sayin'. To further prove my point Shyne was charged with illegal gun possession in 1999 he's still in jail in this wonderful year of 2009...10 years later. But don't mistake this for hate because we got enough black men in jail as it is. I like T.I. I'm a fan, I got all his c.d's. Just stating observation. To TIP: keep ya head up can't wait to hear that new album in late 2010 early 2011.
Sidenote: Who do you know that has a party when they going to jail with felony charges at that. Negroe this ain't yo' birthday. There's a mile long line to send this dude off to jail. This ain't time for celebration it's time for remorse and repentance. SMH!
