In Case You Missed It: TI and Tiny: Family Hustle
Last night’s episode of VH1′s popular reality series ‘TI and Tiny: The Family Hustle’ centered around T.I.’s son, Domani, who is having difficulty getting good grades in school. In one scene T.I. calls the 10-year-old “slow” and suggests that Domani may not have gotten enough oxygen when he was born. T.I. continues teasing the boy, saying the doctors warned him that Domani “might stack blocks a little differently than other children.”
T.I. realizes that shaming his son into doing better is counterproductive because words hurt like fists. So T.I. decides to motivate Domani to learn by promising he will let Domani shoot a music video for his single, “Green Faces”, if he brings home good grades. Two weeks later, Domani brings home a report card filled with all A’s, and the video is on!
Watch the full episode and Domani’s music video after the break.

T.I. and Tiny Remember Don Cornelius; Discuss Baby Rumor
Rap mogul T.I. and his wife, Tameka “Tiny” Harris, remembered Don Cornelius during their visit to ’106 & Park’.
“For me, it was about him creating a platform for us to be able to see ourselves,” said Tip. “Every Saturday morning after cartoons went off, I was waiting and hoping Run-DMC or somebody was on there. If not for him, we wouldn’t have had that. And not just my generation, but generations before me.”
From Miss Xpose:
Tiny recalled her appearance on the show in the ’90s with her group Xscape. “When I first started out, we were on ‘Soul Train’ and it was a great experience,” she said. “It was the first time I realized that they lip-sync, so it was something different, but I loved it. He paved the way for a lot of us to make it and be seen.”
The couple also addressed rumors that they’re expecting another child. “Ya’ll know I can’t give it away,” said Tiny, before T.I. interrupted to tell them to tune in to their VH1 show, “T.I. and Tiny: The Family Hustle,” to find out.
While we’re on the subject, Tiny is looking for a licensed nail tech for her new location. You must be licensed in the state of Georgia. (See new post).

Celeb Style: T.I. wearing Air Yeezys
Whenever rapper T.I. hits the scene he’s going to be sharp in anything he wears. We often receive emails from readers asking about T.I.’s gear. T.I. attended Dwyane Wade’s 30th birthday bash at Setal Hotel in Miami Sunday night. According to style connoisseur, Allen over at Upscale Hype, the ‘Family Hustle’ star wore a black Oakland Raiders cap, Dita Mach-One sunglasses ($700), a black wax coated denim jacket, grey cargo pants, and a pair of Nike Air Yeezy black/pink sneakers, first released in 2009 with a retail price of $79. Now they retail for $215.
Fashion FAIL: Justin Bieber’s FAKE Louis Vuitton – How We Got the Story
About 4 years ago, Louis Vuitton announced its plans to discontinue the custom orders division of its luxury brand. This meant they would no longer accept custom orders for bags or clothing from celebrities or the public.
This news came at a time when Kanye West’s custom $6,300 LV backpack was all the rage on the blogs.
I wanted a smaller version of that backpack, but a rep at the Louis Vuitton corporate office assured me that LV would “probably” resume accepting custom orders “in the future” (this was 3 years ago).
So imagine my surprise when I saw the pictures of Justin Bieber wearing what appeared to be a custom made Louis Vuitton jacket to the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas last week.
