A federal magistrate judge has given permission for T.I. to attend Easter services this Sunday at New Birth Missionary Baptist church. The judge ruled Thursday that the 27-year-old rapper, whose real name is Clifford Harris, can be away from home from 8:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sunday for services by New Birth Missionary Baptist Church.
T.I. is on house arrest awaiting trial on federal gun charges. He was arrested Oct. 13, just blocks away and hours before he was to headline the BET Hip-Hop Awards in Atlanta. Harris was allegedly trying to buy unregistered machine guns and silencers. (Source)
I will be among the groupies who found themselves a new church home on Sunday as I put on my Sunday best and head on over to New Birth. I wonder if there’s a cover charge to get in?
