Video: T.I. and Sons Giving Back to the Community


Click here if unable to view video

Dimewars.com got footage of rapper T.I. motivating the youth at the Camp Creek YMCA yesterday — the day after the chaos at the Dirty Awards.

T.I. also handed out free turkeys yesterday. Tomorrow T.I. will help serve food at the Hosea Williams Feed the Hungry and Homeless annual Thanksgiving Day event. Also tomorrow, T.I. will join the Hawks (or the Braves, I forget) for their Thanksgiving event.

Thanks to Iziah for the tip!

    Bird says:

    Even though he has been ordered to do this community service, I think it will have a positive impact on him. It’s pretty dope that he took his children so they can adopt a spirit of giving. That’s wassup.

    and….. any word on what shawty lo is doing for his community this holiday season? my guess is NOTHING!!!! Great thing about T.I. is he ALWAYS does something for his community during the holidays, even when it wasn’t court ordered!!!

    @ Bird. It’s good to show your kids giving back and being “charitable” In T I’s case It means nothing to me. Maybe it’s too little too late.

DREAM FACE INC…. is a movement, it is that and that’s how its gonna be!!!!!! I”m really not responsive in speaking negativity thru no internet blogs because I am a lady 1st before anything but appreciate it the energy!!!!!!!!! Just as the body needs the heart to function so does a flower need water and the sun to survive….Be very careful of the seeds that you give life too….your comments might just take them further to the top!!!!! We are living a harsh society where people are suffering from identity crisis….they just cant figure out who they are or whats they’re purpose is….it is devastating to see other succeed and your still stuck a the bottom in a apathetic mind state…..I challenge women today to believe in yourself….develop a relationship with Christ and find your purpose…..everything aint for everybody…..I am DRAMA FREE!!!!! Its not a healty mind state….sorrySUCCESS IS THE BEST REVENGE!!!!! hahah I aint slowind down and I aint STOPPING!!!! Im not afraid of adversity and im not afraid of people views of opinions….I was brought up in a off-set environment and I was BOLD enough to live above and beyond the stereotype….Im on the way to a BILLION DOLLAR$$$$ enterprise, I have BO$$ thoughts not hater moves….To my ladies who support DREAM FACE and all the other organization, I would like to say THANK YOU!!!!! and I LOVE YOU!!!!! I am making a way so that you may prosper and be all you want to be as well!!!!! DONT ever let anyone tell you-you cant make it… !!!! Our God is awsome and if you line up with him and his word he will grant you ALL the THINHS your heart desire….even the impossible becomes POSSIBLE when your in the bossom of the LORD, this is my challenge to you reading this, STEP-UP and STEP-OUT, the only thing that is holding you back is you!!!!! Shake the negative friends and surround yourself with positive people who have VALUES and MORALS…people who can impact your life for the better!!!!! Knowledge is POWER, God wants us to live a fulfilled life, dont let the enemy still your joy or block your blessings, I believe in you and so should you!!!!….Life is too short, find a way that you could make front page or cover because its easy to see the clartiy in my movement!!!!

    It’s real confusing to me how he can be fighting one night and then paying alms to the poor the next. That’s the kind of thing that make sme think he’s not sincere about his apoligies for his wrongdoings with the guns and whatnot.

    That nigga needs to grow up.

    More men in our community need to step up to the plate, families overall should understand the value in teaching our children to give back and do things to impact the community positively. Kudos to TIP, its a great thing that he brought the children along – he didn’t have to – IMO not a case of too late at all. The fact that he is providing some sort of a GOOD example still matters.

    When it comes to people associated w/ Diamond it seems like the comments on SR are taking to the heart. Trust me anyone reading this, its just words on a SR blog POST – if you’re in an industry whether it be fashion or music, their will be criticism and feedback … and HATE too. Is it necessary to respond to it all???

    But if you are doing what you do you don’t have to comment on comments. She was not in the room with us. She left her comment as an afterthought Iam from the show me state. Don’t tell/imform me what you are going to do, just do it!

    A hood rat?, I don’t think she is a hood rat. I grew up around girls like her, and they are usually the nicest.

    I think sometimes on SR blog people are really sensitive which is something I can’t understand.

    keely107 says:

    Im lost too, did someone say something bad about Jai Jai? I like her blog also and she sound intelligent enough, I just hope people are not taking out comments to heart at any rate, all this is the thoughts people have on an everyday basis, written. People are gonna talk, people are not going to like everything, my motto is “who the fck told you your opinion counts?” and I apply that to every aspect of life. As long as you are pleased with yourself, nothing anyone says should touch you, if it does you may need to re-evaluate how you rate yourself first.

    Charles

    I went back and read the comments. I like this lil Jai Jai chick. She has a nice lil swag about her.

    But for the most part, in Celebrity sighting post, those comments are made out of fun. That’s it! Nothing more nothing less…

    I hate that she took it to heart. However, if she is about to blow up like she says, she will read wayyyyyyyyyyy worse than what we wrote that day.

    go TI…he was giving back to the community b4 his recent case…as far as him being there after the fight, that’s what he’s supposed to do KEEP IT MOVING…did people think he’ll wake up and say f’ck the turkeys, i need to run up on shawty h o e again?!

    on the flipside, i don’t see why anyone would take comments on here so serious…that was a long a$$ rant…it was well written though…in a way she’s feeding into the negativity by even entertaining the comments…i can’t call it having thin skin though…she didn’t go therelike tyre though (his skin is non-existent)…

  28. 28
    DivineBrown says:

    @Charles

    On another note…on a daily basis Sandra blasts Beyonce, Obama and any other popular celebrity. When Sandra gives props to someone, community members go hard just like she does to Beyonce. (ie Tiny and Diamond) It’s a tit for tat kinda thing.

    *sidebar* Diamond was on Sweet 16 with that big hair chick. I have a newfound respect for her because she isn’t as “ghetto” as I originally perceived and she looked pretty, in an around the way girl kinda swag.

    Hermosa says:

    @ Charles

    Re: Jai Jai

    I like how these low rent celebrities, stylist and makeup artist wanna comment on every comment that we make. These people look like fools responding or even generalization about us. Not all of us wanna be phony a$$ celebrities or be part of any crew and just bc you are featured on a gossip site, that does not make you successful.

    Most of us are successful in our own fields, WITH EDUCATION AND DEGREES BEHIND OUR NAMES. So while Jai Jai is riding Diamond’s coattails to become a “successful make-up artist” I already make more money than her, I drive my own luxury car and I can afford to contract a real make up artist with experience in their field, at the tender age of 23.

    She should know that as a public figure, she put herself in the spotlight to get ridiculed. Just like we have time and “no life” to comment on this blog, she has the time and “no life” to read the comments and write a blog on her myspace about us.

    Thank you!

    keely107 says:

    I went to Jai Jai’s myspace and this chick is only 23 years old. My thing is why does everything WE do to express ourselves have to be interpreted as “hood” or “ghetto” ? What makes you these things? Really? I meand the color of her hair? Wasnt that India Arie that said I am not my hair? If anything came across as “ghetto” about her couldnt that easily be conveyed to her age? Not saying Yea or Nea about it at all, but I am just quite tired of everytime I turn around hearing that something is ghetto when other communities are free to express themselves and it is called punk rock or whatever new label they have for it these days.

    Aww I luv T.I. he is such a charismatic individul…he usually does special things for the youth around the Holidays and he usually has his kiddies with him at those events.

    People that make generalizations about people need to be expsed to more of the world. That is a very closed minded and small mentality. Also, a defense mechanism to expel any truth in “the comments” that might stick.

    i want to tell them with their paltry little starter salaries REAL bad lord….” i make more than you do by answering the DAYUM phone. i get to work 8-5 and go home while you work 10-12 hour days chasing stories and STILL don’t make shyt” i want to tell them so bad but i am not supposed to know how much they make : (

    who said i wasn’t working? the phone rings all the time between my posts. i don’t have to act busy. my boss is cool peeps. he let’s me do my homework here an errythang. when i tried to take a buyout and he called me in and not only asked me to stay…but offered me more $$…to fill a seat, greet his guests, answer his phone, and do his filing. what i do after all of that is up to me. he prefers if the “others” come over here i am not so blatant about being on the internet. his only request.

    glad to see you are getting your exercise jumping to those conclusions.

    @ Kwal

    I know that’s right. . .but I’m on the other end of the spectrum. I have a title and people think bc I’m young I must’ve known someone or f@cked someone to get where I am. That’s why I have my two degrees sitting comfortable on my desk so that these haters can get their facts right. I work hard but I can afford to play hard and I play hard every motha f@cken chance I get.

    I don’t have a man to pay my luxury car note or a sugar daddy to buy me my chanel purses and and my 1 pair of louboutins. I didn’t ride anybody’s coattails. I did this by my damn self and I damn sure ain’t gonna let a wanna be make up artist tell me other wise.

    KEYWORD =’s EITHER.

    don’t get it twisted. i moved UP to this job. i used to write but ironically answering the phone paid more and had better hours. more $$ less work…works for me. when he got promoted he bought me with him (i get accused of screwing him too@hermosa).

    you are just like the others i posted about. and your calf musckles must be outta this world from all the jumping you are doing sista.

    @Amulet:

    Sometimes what is annoying? My thing is, how you kind of talked down about the woman who supports you. How do you think its funny that you intimidate her to the point she is startled when you walk over there, the point that makes it bad is you actually notice this and get a kick out of it! Then you said, “we dont care…at least I dont” like you or colleagues are at liberty to surf the web and blog, but of course the secretary is beneath you and not at liberty to do that. I am taking this to heart, as I was just promoted from that position, and the only reason I opted out, cause I loved my job, is well people who think like you.

    thank you @keely. it is sad, cause like i said the reporters and others really DO think i am just the “help.” luckily i work for a man who thinks the world of me and is always singing my praises all over this building. he is always telling folks he just could not do what he does without me. and again this was a choice i made career wise. i was recruited to come over here to the executive offices. i have better hours, take two hour lunches…hell one day i even went down to the basement and caught a nap. i ain’t lying. and nobdy gives a rat’s azz cause i still manage to do my job…

Had to str8ten a girl here and let her know “sweetie I have a dual degree and THIS job is about to pay for my master’s so that mess you talking with your highschool dropout, my daddy’s friend got me in and the only reason I am still here is because my work is repetitive and I memorized the system and if I EVER got laid off I would never luck up again ays down!”

    keely107…I hear that! The front desk personnel have the hardest freakin’ job! When someone calls the phone mad, who takes the heat. When someone comes to the desk with an attitude, who takes the heat? When someone wants to make themselves feel good, who do they pick on?
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    You just described my job. Only because I have been here so long do the long time customers know that I have state license(s) for what I do. New ppl just think I am the secretary/receptionist or just “that girl”. I don’t want a back office. I love being in the reception area. I have a big beautiful desk and a great leather chair that belongs to me that will leave with me when I decide to get a more stressful job. I don’t want to be salary(you work more for less).

    DivineBrown says:

    *sigh* I don’t wanna be bored! LMAO!

    I try not to argue with people. But, hey, sometimes it just happens. IT’S ALWAYS THE ONES THAT CAN’T GET IN WHERE THEY FIT IN. Did you notice that? Usually, it’s someone new and a regla. Folks just push you to do it.

    Like the other day, someone came at Herm on some…how do you know, are you a man? That’s just ignant!

    Diappointed? *LMAO* I almost got some membership paperwork out on you. But, I can’t give you none ’cause you the President. (I’m gettin to big for my britches)

    Hermosa says:

    Divine- I saw that sh!t about not being a man. . .She wasn’t a man either!!! Lord, people just wanna start sh!t to start sh!t.

    I also saw in the Beyonce post, the new black sheep posted something like “It’s Amullet bytches”. If that ain’t starting something . . .I don’t know what is!

    Iyonah- My stister (this kid in the neighborhood calls his sisters, his stisters, I think it’s funny) bought the Ye’ cd and it’s pure garbage! I don’t like saying it bc I love Kanye but I’m being honest. I like the pull out booklet though, it had a huge pic of him and his momma. I agree with Kwall, this album is an expression of him pain, I can admire that and I support him.

    Divine-

    We just got our shipment in for the spring collection. . .OMG, I’m in love. Mind you, I don’t need glasses but I still wear them bc I think alot of them are cute.

    We have these black on black Chanel’s. The frame is black and the double “c” rhinestones are glittery black, LOVE THEM. And sunglasses are another story. . . I have a mini collection of sunglasses at home! We sell them at a pretty high price but we buy from the manufacturer pretty cheap. Are you interested in glasses or sunglasses?

    @ kwall – your probably right – Sandra do tell on your kitchen skills!
    @ Hermosa me and my little siter do the my sister – well we say ma sista ma sista. On the glasses do you have apic? I wear contacts for the most part but its time to get a new pair of glasses.
    I heart Ye really I do, even more than I do Bey but I just want to hug him and hold him through the PAIN. You can hear it all over the album – if it was minus the AutoTune then I too would call it genius, but when you compare it to the other projects in the past and if you have followed him then your going to be disappointed.
    @ blogger – I didn’t purchase it and won’t even get the $2 bootleg because that AutoTune really hurts my EARS. Now that is something that saturates the market. A song here or there ok, but everyone SONG … I just can’t/don’t want to accept it.
    And when it comes to people coming on this site to argue I just lol because it’s a waist of energy, I love my CYBER fam.
    @ shay1 – I am still @ work till 4 EST … are you cooking?

    Sorry for all the ones still at work. Don’t feel bad, I have to work on Black Friday. I do get to lock the door at 2pm but all the sales start while I will be at work, all the pickin’s will be gone to go shopping after work. The only ppl that should work on Friday our the cashiers to ring up my purchases. i e . gas station attendends, grocery stores, retail. No direspect to the cashiers out there. Been there done that and I always appreciate a cheery face on the cashier who is happy to ring up my purchases (when I use to get that day off with pay). I guess I am still a cashier, I take ppls money to buy what I am selling, no one wants to purchase what I am selling on Black Friday. And no, I am not a “call girl”. LOL. Hope everyone has a safe and Happy Thanksgiving.
