RAPPER T.I AND TINY'S REALITY SHOW TO PREMIERE ON VH1 IN 3 WEEKS.

T.I. and Tiny’s new reality show, T.I. And Tiny: The Family Hustle premieres December 5 at 9 PM ET on VH1. Gosh! Whoever did all the kid's styling and makeup did a great job. This family is finally at peace. Look at Domani so big and grown. King and Major always so happy, the girls are busy doing their thing too. Who has stood behind those children and really is a REAL HOUSEWIFE of Atlanta. Listen below to my interview with Tiny when T.I went to jail for the first time on the gun charges on why she didn't do that show when asked.

TINY PLEADS NOT GUILTY TO POSESSING ECSTACY PILLS.

Los Angeles County District Attorney's spokeswoman Jane Robison says Tameka "Tiny" Cottle entered the plea through her attorney on Monday.She was arrested Sept. 1 along with her husband during a traffic stop on Los Angeles' Sunset Strip.The 35-year-old is not required to appear in person on the case. It will be called for a pretrial hearing on Jan. 6.

Cottle's attorney, Blair Berk, declined to comment. Prosecutors declined to charge T.I., citing a federal judge's decision to send him to prison for 11 months for violating his probation on weapons charges and because only four ecstasy pills were found on him.

TIP and TINY, Stop putting these kids in this mess all the time? I am coming to Arizona to talk to you out there TIP. This is my 2009 intv with TINY last November 2009. Seriously these 2 are the NICEST ppl you will meet. They are just falling into these demons. They will survive. Clifford needs to be in rehab like Lindsay not jail. Bad move Feds!!

RAPPER T.I ORDERED TO APPEAR IN FRONT OF FEDERAL JUDGE!

On Thursday U.S. District Judge Charles Pannel Jr., ordered to appear before a federal judge in Atlanta and explain why his probation should not be revoked because of his recent arrest in Los Angeles. Pannell did not set a date for the hearing.

The order lists three possible violations of his bond: possession of ecstasy on Sept. 1, testing positive for opiates on Sept. 2 and associating on Sept. 1 with Cortez Thomas, a convicted felon.

Several pills that the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department called a "controlled substance" were found on Grammy award-winning rapper and his new wife after they were stopped Sept. 1 on a Hollywood street after making an illegal U-turn.

It is reported that the pills were found on T.I. and his new wife, Tameka "Tiny" Cottle, and not in the Maybach, the luxury car they were in.

MEANWHILE TINY TWEETS HER FANS TO THANK THEM FOR ENCOURAGING WORDS.

Tiny tweeted her fans for all the encouraging words they left her on Twitter. It is so good to be laying down in your own clean bed at the end of the whole ordeal. Pls everyone, let the justice system take it's course. I cannot comment at this time. There are too many reports coming out of Los Angeles right now. I don't even know what drug and who had the drug in their possession in that car.

IS T.I'S ARREST A DELIBERATE EXAMPLE OF DRIVING WHILE BLACK?

Grammy Award winner T.I.’s arrest in Los Angeles for drug possession has bewildered former Atlanta Mayor Andy Young, who counseled the performer on his “road to redemption” after the rapper pleaded guilty to federal drug charges.

The news of the arrest hurts his heart, said Young, who officiated T.I’s South Beach wedding in July.“He not only has a successful marriage going for him and some wonderful children but his new movie is a big hit,” Young told the AJC.T.I., whose real name is Clifford Harris Jr., and his new wife, Tameka Cottle, were arrested Wednesday night in West Hollywood when T.I. made an illegal U-turn.

A Los Angeles deputy said he smelled marijuana coming from inside his luxury Maybach automobile. According to the entertainment Web site TMZ , the deputy then found drugs, reported to be in the same class as methamphetamine and ecstasy.T.I.'s publicist declined to comment.

“There’s another culture in L.A. that I don’t understand,” Young said. “Most people in Los Angeles would wonder why he was stopped … I don’t know why they should have been stopped ... When a black man is stopped and not speeding … you call that driving while black.”Young noted a bit of symmetry between T.I.'s life and the role he plays in his just-released movie, "Takers."“I didn’t particularly like him doing the movie,” Young said, explaining that the message was wrong. “Part of my hope was he would have a cultural shift as well as a personal shift."

In the movie, which the 29-year-old produced, T.I. plays a career criminal and gang member named "Ghost" who has just been released from prison. "Ghost" almost immediately starts planning a bank heist that is bigger than the one that previously sent "Ghost" to prison.

Many of you that called and e-mailed me, I thank you but I still have no comment on hos to analyze this.

CONGRATS TO TINY AND TIP ON THEIR WEEKEND WEDDING.

So my girl Tiny is finally married to T.I. The wedding was a lavish affair this past weekend in Miami. I hear the whole of Atlanta left town. We will hopefully get better pictures soon as TIP is not happy with the quality of pictures that went out on twitter. However they are still fine to me. Now everyone is even a happier bigger family. T.I is one of the BEST dads I know in the entire WORLD, not just showbiz. Watch out for his movie "Takers" which will be out August 27th. We love TIP here at HipHossip and have been there since day one for him.

Jet magazine did an interview with T.I and gave us a tour of his posh mansion in Georgia. Watch here. Also if you missed my interview with Tiny last year when T.I was in jail, you can listen to it here.

YAY! OUR FAVE RAPPER T.I OUT OF PRISON!

Rapper T.I. was released from prison on Tuesday after seven months, his attorney confirmed.

The performer, whose real name is Clifford Harris Jr., will serve the remainder of a reduced sentence in a correctional center near Fulton County Airport in Atlanta, Georgia.

Harris was sentenced to a year and a day in March 2009 resulting from weapons charges related to purchasing machine guns and silencers.

Officials charged him with providing a bodyguard with $12,000 to buy weapons.

In May, he reported to a federal prison complex in Forrest City, Arkansas, to begin serving his sentence.

In addition to serving prison time, T.I. was placed on house arrest, given community service and was ordered to pay a $100,300 fine.

It was not the first time the platinum-selling artist had been in trouble with the law.

Harris was not permitted to own any guns because he had been convicted in 1998 on felony drug charges, possession of crack cocaine with intent to distribute, in Cobb County in suburban Atlanta.

After the rapper's arrest, he entered a plea agreement, which federal authorities called unique because it allowed him to remain out of prison for a year while he performed.

Steve Sadow, Harris' attorney, said prisoners with Harris' sentence are eligible for a 54-day sentence reduction for good behavior.

Harris is expected to remain at the halfway house for three months and will still be required to finish serving slightly less than 500 hours of community service and about 23 days of home incarceration.

Before reporting to prison, Harris threw himself a going-away party/concert attended by thousands at Philips Arena in Atlanta.

MY EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH THE LOVELY TINY AND STAR OF BET'S "TINY AND TOYA." (OUR HIPHOSSIP MUSIC MOTHER OF THE YEAR)

Tiny (Tameka Cottle) Interview - Tiny

In this interview, Tiny talked to me about family, family, family. Her kids, parents, the show family with Toya, L'il Wayne's ex and more. Above you can see photos of her hugging her lovely daughter Zonnique aka Star in the group OMG Girlz as well as a photo of her while pregnant with Major along with her mom and dad. Also with all the kids including T.I's other kids on Easter Sunday 2008. She even cracked jokes about King who in my picture above says he's "tinier." LOL!

 I asked her if she was a single mom even though she is engaged, at first she said she does not consider herself a single mom anymore but at the end of the day..."I am I am" she said. This interview is a must hear. This is one classy humble dynamic lady. Tiny's real name is Tameka Cottle and a former member of singing group Xscape. She said that the group will definitely not be coming back and I happened to be in a chat 2 days ago where I also saw Kandi Burrus a former Xscape member type this...

"I was suppose to do the show with Tiny & Toya. things didnt work out but that had opened my mind to the whole reality TV thing. So when the producers of RHOA (Real Housewives of Atlanta) reached out to me I was cool with it. If they don’t ask me back its cool because a lot of other opportunities have opened up for me."

Listen to what Tiny told me about RHOA as well in my audio. Also which talk show will she go on FIRST if all 3 called her now? Oprah, Ellen and Tyra and more T.I questions.
