Born Clifford Joseph Harris Jr., T.I.’s stage name came from an early childhood nickname, TIP, which was shortened to T.I.P. at which point record executives asked him to take off the “P” thus leaving fans and the music industry with T.I. He was part of the Atlanta rap scene and has proclaimed himself the King of the South. After being dropped from his first record label due to low sales, T.I. was determined to make it as a rapper and founded Grand Hustle Records. In 2001, T.I. released I’m Serious, his debut album. T.I.’s first album featured collaborations with Jazze Pha, The Neptunes, Youngbloodz and Pharrell Williams. After poor sales, T.I. collaborated with DJ Drama to produce several mix tapes. This collaboration created much buzz and T.I. was able to resurface on Bone Crusher’s song “Never Scared” in 2003.
