Free Again! T.I. Released From Halfway House ~ Plans Sunday Brunch For A Few Friends…


Sep, 29 2011 | Written by ATLien
Clifford “T.I.” Harris is finally free from the constraints of his federal prison sentence.

Tip’s attorney, Steve Sadow, confirmed that T.I. left the Dismas Charities Atlanta halfway house “very early this morning” after spending the last year in federal custody and the last two weeks at the halfway house.

Reportedly T.I. left the halfway house just after midnight. Without fanfare, he got into a chauffeur-driven SUV and rode off.

Since his release coincides with the BET Hip-Hop awards (perfect timing) Tip will rest for a few hours and will then start celebrating his freedom Friday evening with a coming home party at an Atlanta club and his Grand Hustle has dedicated it’s annual Sunday brunch in honor of the rapper’s return.

The private brunch is invitation only and estimated to cost around $100,000, with $20,000 spent on food and an additional $8,000 on desserts.

It will be hosted by T.I. and Amar’e Stoudemire of the NY Knicks, who in addition to being Ciara’s ex-boo is a close friend of the Grand Hustle Family. Amare’ even joined forces with Tip a few years ago to promote one of his artists.

The brunch is has several high profile sponsors and they will be giving away tons of free goodies. Since I wasn’t privy enough to get any tickets to give away, click over to SandraRose to enter to win VIP access.

*Rapper T.I. must be proud as his clothing brand, AKOO and his Grand Hustle Entertainment are presenting the “A King of Oneself” brunch. It will take place on Oct. 2 during the BET Hip Hop Awards weekend and will be hosted by the rapper himself.

It’s an exclusive event to be held at a private location in Atlanta.

“We’re gathering our family and friends during BET’s Hip Hop Awards weekend to show love and appreciation to T.I. as he celebrates his 30th birthday, his new book Power & Beauty, and the growth of the AKOO Brand,” states Jason Geter, co-founder of the brand.

During the brunch soiree, guests will be presented a sneak peek screening of the “Salute the King” fan-based documentary. AKOO Clothing partnered with Grand Hustle to launch the Salute the King Campaign where fans recorded and uploaded video messages to T.I. Droves of fans and celebrity friends from Rick Ross, Diddy, Nelly, Big Sean, Lex Luger, Playboy Tre, Young Dro, Killer Mike, Travis Porter, B.o.B, Curtis Granderson, Carl Crawford and Hollywood TV actor Hosea Chanchez uploaded personal video messages of support and encouraging words to the Grammy award winning artist, actor, and producer.

“The Salute the King” campaign was an overwhelming success. T.I. fans from all over the world submitted videos. People are excited and are awaiting to see big things happen from him in the near future,” saids Jeff Belizaire, Director of Marketing for AKOO Clothing.
