T.I. recently stopped by Shade 45’s “Sway In The Morning” radio show to chop it up with Sway Calloway, Heather B and Tracy G for an interview, which you can check out below.
Around the 19:00 mark of the conversation, Tip revealed why he was offended by Lil Wayne‘s comments on the Black Lives Matter movement and why he said what he said on Instagram.
The Atlanta rapper explained it was one of the most difficult things he has had to do in his life and he did it all “out of love”, because he didn’t want to see anyone else bash Tunechi for his comments but he felt that him and Tune have the type of relationship that would let him say what he did.
However, T.I. did say he has “got a lot of love and respect” for Wayne, called him a “legend” and “one of the greatest”, as well mentioned he still considers Weezy one of his “partners” in music!
