Rapper, T.I. expresses his thoughts on the Brown shooting, the violence in Ferguson, Mo. and the lack of leadership in the African American community.

I think there is a lack of leadership for a few reasons. I think that long ago the systems that had been set in place and excused due to the crack epidemic, the war on drugs that took fathers out of homes that broke up families. There were overwhelming prison sentences given to one substance vs. another version of the same substance. That really broke up a lot of the African American homes.

Won’t vote for a woman president

Interview0 Comments

In an interview with DJ Whoo Kid for the show, The Whoolywood Shuffle, T.I. says he will not vote for Hillary Clinton, or any other woman to be president.

Not to be sexist…Just because every other position that exists, I think a woman could do well. But the president, it’s kind of like, I just know that women make rash decisions emotionally — they make very permanent, cemented decisions — and then later, it’s kind of like it didn’t happen or they didn’t mean for it to happen…And I sure would hate to just set off a nuke. … [Leaders of other countries] will not be able to negotiate the right kinds of foreign policy. The world ain’t ready yet. I think you might be able to get the Loch Ness Monster elected before you could [a woman]. It’s not right.

He says he likes Donald Trump but will not vote for him.

[He’s] interesting, and I feel he is the best showman of them all. And I do feel that if he is sincerely concerned about the economy of America and the working public, he would be the best person to flip the money that we have, take it and flip it. [But] His racist remarks, all of his off-color statements, it makes it impossible to be, like, completely supportive of him.
