After finishing the remainder of his 11 month sentence at Dismas Charities halfway house in Atlanta, T.I. ‘s lawyer Steve Sadow confirms that T.I.P was officially released this morning. The Kang plans to celebrate his freedom during tomorrow’s welcome home party and then a $100k Sunday brunch.

Earlier this month, T.I. was back and forth from prison and the halfway house due to unauthorized passengers during his commute. This week, we got a little taste of new music from TIP and a studio pic with Pharrell. Hopefully his next song emerges soon. Welcome home Cliff.

Lil Wayne Covers VIBE

Bow down. Dwayne Carter’s got the Vibe (no Guy) as your highness takes the cover of the October/November issue of VIBE. Below are excerpts of his cover story.

VIBE: You say competition is for the “old guys,” but it sounds like you’re going at Jay-Z with that line, “I got your baby money/Kidnap your bitch, get that how-much-you-love-your-lady money.” Are we looking at it the wrong way?  

LIL WAYNE: I know for a fact, music is about perception. You can’t do anything but perceive what you hear. If I know that for a fact, I can never be upset about someone’s reaction to it. I’m not gonna say I don’t know what will happen before I say it [on record]. I do know what will happen. I am aware of it. It is what it is. 

VIBE: You mentioned how humbled you were at the success of “She Will.” Drake, who wrote and performs the song’s chorus, has now become a platinum star in his own right. Do you look at the guy and say, “Wow, I helped create a monster, I have to stay on my toes”? 

LIL WAYNE: I don’t look at it like that. Drake is my artist. If he wasn’t my artist, then yeah maybe. But that’s my artist. He’s not [just] a friend. We’re more than friends. It’s business. It would be impossible for it to be a competition. I mean, I’m the guy’s boss.
