T.I. and His Family Go Gardening On CNN
The rap game has afforded T.I. an opportunity to try his hand at becoming an author, actor and entrepreneur, among other things. And now, the Atlanta rapper reveals his latest and possibly most unusual hobby yet, gardening.
The Kang reached out to CNN’s Sanjay Gupta MD to get the basics on how to create a home garden, and the importance of promoting a healthy lifestyle in your household. With some help from Taja Sevelle of Urban Farming, T.I. and his children learn how to plant and take care of a winter garden.
“If you’re a family that wants to cut down on your monthly bills, and you want to eat right and teach your kids about healthy eating so they can grow up very strong and healthy, then you can plant your own garden,” said Sevelle prior to spreading he wisdom to Tip and Co.
From there, they all got their hands dirty planting lettuce, arugula, and carrots while learning gardening tips and concepts like companion planting and more.
Historically, we know T.I. doesn’t do anything on a small scale. With that said, could the “Trap Back” creator be the first MC to enter the horticulture game? That would be the real family hustle.

T.I. Says Will Smith Offered To Reach Out To President Obama For A Pardon
Even though it looks like he’s all but buried his prior legal issues, T.I.’s career has still been affected by his back-to-back prison sentences. Now, in a recent interview with Peter Bailey’s “NiteCap,” Tip reflects on that time and how Will Smith offered to help him.
T.I. recalled that famed actor and emcee Will Smith offered to reach out to President Barack Obama to give T.I. a pardon following his probation violation case. Although Tip ended up serving his time, he said that he was moved by Smith’s offer of service.
“I didn’t reach out to [Will Smith for a Presidential pardon]; we were just in conversation just speaking,” he recalled. “We got the same birthday, and everyday on our birthday we speak on the phone just to say, ‘What’s up, how’re you doing, what’s going on?’ That year on our birthday, I was just going through that [probation] situation, so when he had me [on the phone], I was like, ‘Dude, it’s tight right now.’ His first thing was, ‘How can I help?’ and I said, ‘Bruh, it’s got to come from the top.’ He was like, ‘Oh yeah? I can reach up there [to the President].’ I was like, ‘Man, I don’t even know. Don’t put yourself out the way – it’s a long shot’…at that point, he connected with my attorneys and took a shot.”
