In Case You Missed It: T.I. & Tiny: The Family Hustle, Episodes 11 and 12
In episode 11 of T.I. & Tiny: The Family Hustle, Tameka “Tiny” Harris flew her mom, Dianne Pope, to Baltimore to attend the OMG Girlz concert for her birthday! Dianne shed tears of joy when Zonnique brought her out onstage to sing a special song for her. I missed last week’s episode which is why I’m posting it today. Also, in episode 12 which aired last night on VH1, T.I. takes his oldest sons, Messiah and Domani, to a skateboard park, and Tiny challenges Zonnique to a dance off.
