As of October 2008, T.I. has had nine Top 10 Billboard Hot 100 singles, with 3 of them reaching number 1 ("My Love" by Justin Timberlake on which T.I. was featured, "Whatever You Like," & "Live Your Life" featuring Rihanna).
The Love This Life Songfacts reports that Love This Life, the first official single from T.I.'s eighth album, Trouble Man, was released on April 2, 2012 via YouTube.
T.I. is from Bankhead, Atlanta, Georgia and was raised by his grandparents. T.I. explained the origin of his nickname Rubber Band Man, saying, "We used to wear rubber bands to signify how much money, how much blow we had." He was nicknamed "Tip" after his paternal great-grandfather. Upon signing with Arista Records subsidiary LaFace Records in 2001, he shortened his name to T.I. out of respect for label mate Q-Tip.
T.I. has been in a relationship with former Xscape member Tameka "Tiny" Cottle since 2001. Together, they have two sons: King and Major Harris. He has three other children with ex-girlfriend Lashon Dixon: Domani, Messiah and Deyjah. Overall, T.I. has five children.
T.I. was co-executive producer of B.G.'s upcoming album and making beats for artists like Mariah Carey, Cassidy, Rick Ross, Maino, B.o.B., Yung Joc, Young Dro, and himself. He also executive produced the soundtrack to the film Hustle & Flow and released the collection through his record label.

The lyrics of T.I.’s “Yeah” featuring Lil Wayne describe a typical night in the club, where everyone is having fun and enjoying themselves with various forms of indulgences such as popping pills, smoking marijuana, and drinking alcohol. The chorus repeats the phrase “Yae Yae Yae” to emphasize the excitement and energy of the party. T.I. raps about how his crew, Psc N Block Ent, throws the best parties with exclusive VIP areas, expensive cars, and plenty of women. They follow a hierarchy where those who do not deserve to be in VIP get kicked out, and only “real niggas” are allowed to party with them. T.I. also mentions his gun as a means of protection and warns others not to mess with him.
The verse by Kuntry King describes his own similarly hedonistic experience in the club, where he’s high on marijuana and drinking Patron. He brags about his wealth and his ability to make it rain with his stacks of cash. The song highlights the materialistic and decadent nature of the clubbing lifestyle, where status is determined by wealth, possessions, and access to VIP areas.
Overall, “Yeah” is a typical club banger, with catchy chants and flashy lyrics that celebrate the high life of partying and indulgence. However, it also highlights the violence and exclusivity that can exist in such environments, and the need for protection and hierarchy to maintain order.
