So, if you have not heard the latest news about T.I., I don’t know where you have been. But, just in case, I’ll bring you up to speed.

Basically, T.I. was caught trying to obtain weapons, and then more weapons were found in his home under illegal possession. He was given a jail sentence, but his time had been reduced recently in exchange for house arrest and doing 1,000 hours of community service before he goes into the big house.

Thus, we are given T.I.’s Road to Redemption, a new short series airing on MTV to show how he is helping others out and teaching them consequences of actions such as his. The first episode is scheduled to air Tues, Feb. 10, at 9 p.m. and will continue as a countdown to the date he is put in jail.

I personally love T.I. and will definitely be tuning in. I think it is such a shame that he will be in jail and unable to make music for at least a year, but hopefully he can take something away from this experience.

Who knows? Maybe helping others will inspire him to change his own ways.
