The King of the South

On March 2, 2012 I was reading in my Vibe magazine December 2011/January 2012 issue was an article inside by the King of the South.

Clifford T.I. Harris Jr., one of my favorite hip-hop rappers in the music industry called an informational meeting with the king. First he was in the Georgia Diagnostic and Classification Prison (GDCP) which he was removed from there within twenty-eight days. T.I. did not serve his latest bid at GDCP. His 11 months for a 2010 parole violation (more on that later) were served at Arkansas Forrest City Federal Correctional Complex. I'm writing because Clifford T.I. Harris Jr. just made a mature statement in his article. About if you're gay in peace, and if you're against it you should have to right to be against it in peace. That really touched my heart to know he has an open mind towards human rights.

I live an alternative lifestyle and I refuse to change for anyone. Take it or leave it. I've been a huge fan of T.I.s since March 6, 2004. That's a total of eight years in three days. Now, he's been through the struggle from going to jail for buying weapons with silencers on them bought from one of his old bodyguards back in 2008 being found in his home in Atlanta Georgia.

To methamphetmines and ecstasy found in his car and his wife Tiny took the fall with him in the end. T.I. has done enough jail and federal state time and the list goes on. But overall he's still standing tall. I think he's sexy, meaning face, body, etc. No disrespect to his wife Tameka Tiny Cottle. She's a blessed female to have a man in her corner, bad or good boy. He's a rebel in my eyes. I read about him in all my magazines (Vibe, Jet, Ebony, etc.).

I'm writing because we as human beings must not be judgmental towards nobody in this world. Straight, gay, bisexual, etc. This is America, the land of the free.

I would love to met T.I. in person. I love all his rap music too. I like the fact he's a man to his wife and children. That's very important as a man. Always put the work in, sweetheart.

I'm currently incarcerated, but I remain strong. Trouble doesn't last always. I tell myself this every day. The only advice I can give you is keep going hard. Boys make excuses, men get the job done.

Once again, thank you for the shoutout to all of us with an alternative lifestyle. I'm one of your biggest fans. You've earned your title (The King of the South). Enough said.

I'm open for any opinions or comments.

Yours truly,
