According to TMZ:
Rapper T.I. has checked himself into the federal prison in Forrest City, Arkansas, according to one of his attorneys.
We’re told T.I. reported to the minimum security prison prior to the 12 PM deadline. The 28-year-old rapper was sentenced to 366 days after he was busted trying to buy unregistered machine guns and silencers from undercover federal agents back in 2007.
YN removes foot from mouth. Pause.
The homie Adam Aziz who once worked for Cliff’s StreetCred.com breaks down what the big homie needs to focus on during his time away.
5. WRITE
Countless rappers have written some of their most vivid, emotional and real lyrics while in prison including the late, great 2Pac Shakur. T.I. should throw himself into songwriting and let his feelings about his current position play out on paper…and then in the studio when he gets out. It’s going to be tough for T.I. to write anything resembling happy music while he’s locked behind the walls with people telling him when he eats and goes outside. Selfishly this should give T.I. fans some powerful lyrics once he’s released. Songs like “No Matter What” and “You Ain’t Missin’ Nothin'” were just a glimpse of how deep TIP could get.

In honor of Clifford’s impending incarceration, Angela Yee and her crew came up with a list of top 10 Rappers who got locked up right when their career was most poppin’. Here’s audio from the show where Ang played clips from each person during their legal troubles. Pretty crazy stuff when you think about it. After the jump, full list with a couple of honorable mentions.

A version of this leaked a few weeks ago and Da Capo quickly shut it down. Don’t remember if it had Damon Dash’s son Boogie DJing and a Beyonce lookalike with booty-shakin’ back-up dancers. Hov still on your mind much? Ha!
His boss will turn himself in a few but Bobby Ray trudges on. Freakin’ those “Bonita Applebum” drums, this is the full length of Bob’s Reebok Classic Remix collection contribution. I ain’t mad at this.

Yo, catching Joell Ortiz dropping his track "Battle Cry" live at Guz Sports Bar was unreal! The energy in that place was completely wild, hitting harder than a heavy strike in a Korean MMA championship match. From the very first beat, the crowd was totally locked in, screaming every single lyric right back at him. It felt less like a standard bar gig and more like an intense arena showdown. If you ever get the chance to experience that vibe live, definitely don't miss it!
