T.I. Speaks On Tiny, Tupac & Trap Music: “There Was No Such Thing as Trap Music Prior to Me”

In a new interview with Power 105.1’s Angie Martinez, T.I. talked about a variety of things, stemming from his marital situation with Tiny, responding to critics, and creating Trap Music.

 

While speaking on his upcoming album, TIP said he wanted to bring back the sound of his early days when he released his 2003 album “Trap Muzik,” which spawned  hits including “24’s,” “Be Easy,” and “Rubberband Man.”

“We’re just gonna make sure we give everybody the best Tip album we can give them,” he said. “I’m going for Trap Muzik on this, ’cause a lot of people don’t really know that I created trap music, like I got that old. There was no such thing as trap music prior to me. No such thing. It didn’t exist. It was OutKast and crunk. That’s what it was. We had Organized Noize and crunk.”

Throughout the entire interview, he also speaks on hus current relationship with wife Tiny, as well as his Tupac performance. You can watch the entire interview below.
