TI looking to get out of hip hop with his youth
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 25 June 2010
TI has said that he doesn’t want to grow old as a rapper, hinting that he may instead move into acting.
The 29 year old told CNN: “I’m not going to be the 40 year old rapper. That’s Jay. He’s doing it very well. Hats off, but I just don’t see that for me. If I had the option to be Jay-Z or Will Smith, I think I’d go with Will”.
He added: “I’m a Jay-Z fan. I have a lot of admiration and respect for Jay and his legacy. But I feel like Will, he gets to spend more time with his family. He gets to be home more and actually raise his kids. I feel like he has more of a home life and the money don’t hurt. Twenty million dollars a flick ain’t bad”.
