T.I. Blasts His Sons’ Mother

T.I. is responding to reports that the mother of two of his sons is seeking additional child support.
“I have always supported all of my children financially, emotionally, and spiritually,” T.I. said in a joint statement with his lawyer. He went on to explain that in addition to the $2000 cash payment he gives his ex monthly, that he also pays for his kids’ private school tuition, clothing, food and extracurricular activities. T.I. also said he helped his ex with a down payment on her home and purchased a car for her.
So, why is she taking him back to court? Well, this is T.I.’s explanation: “She has chosen not to work and to live 100% from her child support receipts. This is the reason for her difficulties in making ends meet for herself.”
What do you think? Should T.I. pony up more money or is his ex getting greedy?

If what T.I. is saying is true, then shes real wack for that. She think thats her meal ticket.

Let’s talk Reggae/Dancehall. Have you heard the new single “Woman” from Buju Banton’s new artiste New Kidz? Girls its hot. Its for us.
Still a T.I. Fan
From what I understand Dixon never said T.I. was not a good father,she just needs more.Really what’s wrong with that,he should of outright brought her house instead of a down payment.The way his kids are in the media he has to keep them safe.Should she live in the hood and have to worry about the groupie’s and jealous cats on her kids?Come on now everything he’s doing he should be remember he is the KING of the SOUTH.The woman is not asking for much hell Tiny don’t work,where would she be if she wasn’t T.I. girl?We all know her Excape days have been looooong gone.
i feel that his childrens mother is wrong due to fact those kids have to grow up i feel that she is depending souly on child support she needs to grow up and be a real woman and make a way for her and those kidsbecause they did not ask to come here so therefore she should provide as well and contribute also not just T.I.

Dont give her anything more. just make sure your kids are ok. She should be working and not depend on t.i. he aint with you no more, its over. Get a job or write a rapp or something. I get so tired of these women trying to live off of their ex’s cheese. I know people that dont even make 2000 a month and they alright. or t.i. should fight for custody. then she wont get shit!

I am certainly not endorsing someone using their ex for money. But I will say this…for T.I. to be making so much money-there is no reason why he should be paying only $2000 a month for child support!!! Thats only a few hundred more dollars than I pay and I dont make anywhere near as much as I do…If he has a problem paying child support he should get full custody of the children…and I bet u he wont do that…cheap a$$!
She’s bein greedy as hell. If she wants more money for her kids she should get off her lazy ass and make it for them.

WHAT??? ARE YOU PEOPLE SERIOUS??? FIRST OF ALL T. I. NEED TO KEEP IT REAL. WHAT KIND OF EXAMPLE ARE YOU SETTING FOR YOUR CHILDREN AND THE FANS THAT SUPPORT YOU. LASHON DIXON WAS WITH YOU WHEN YOU HAD NOTHING. A SOME POINT YOU LOVED HER ENOUGH TO HAVE TWO KIDS BY HER. $2000 IS A SLAP IN THE FACE. I UNDERSTAND THAT HE HAS MOVED ON WITH TINY AND THEY HAVE KIDS TOGETHER…BUT TINY GETS AN ALLOWANCE FROM HIM 5 TIMES THAT AMOUNT JUST TO GO SHOPPING AND T.I. IS TAKING CARE OF HER DAUGHTER FROM A PREVIOUS RELATIONSHIP. SO WHY WOULDN’T YOU GIVE HER MORE MONEY FOR THOSE BUYS. HE TALKS ABOUT HIS MORALS AND VALUES BUT IF HE WAS SO RIGHT HE WOULD STOP HAVING BABIES OUT OF WEDLOCK. HE SHOULD HAVE ENOUGH LOVE IN HIS HEART FOR HIS KIDS TO JUST SAY TO LASHON…I KNOW WE ARE NOT TOGETHER BUT I DO NOT WANT YOU TO STRUGGLE WITH MY KIDS WHEN THEY ARE HOME WITH YOU. THATS THE MORAL THING TO DO…

I THINK THAT MESSED UP ABOUT SHE DOESN’T WANT TO WORK AND LIVE OFF THE BABIES CHILD SUPPORT. IT’S HARD ENOUGH TO GET A NIGGA TO GET A JOB TO PAY IT AND THIS BROAD IS TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE SITUTATION. T.I TAKE HER BUTT BACK TO COURT SHE’LL BE SALTY IF THEY LOWER THE AMOUNT THAT SHE’S GETTING NOW. AND IF THEY DO, LAUGH IN HER FACE. (GREEDY BROAD)
selina

strength&honor,
NO BABY I THINK SHE IS BEING SO STUCK UP t.I BUT YOU SHOULD LIVE THAT ALONE BABY
SHE IS BEING STUCK UP AND YOU SHOULD LEAV THAT ALONE
skeebo
jus get custody my nigga and give her some time to get on her feet and see what she does then.thats the only way to see what her true intention is. anybody agree?
manan
she is a junk.But ma homy T.I shd consider her and for old times sake give her a little money to get on her feet.But if T.I decides otherwise,SHE COULD GO WHEREVER SHE LIKES.

for whoever was sayin Tiny don’t work, she has her own Travel Angency, and manages a few artist, also writes songs for other artists, she made tons just off of TLC’s no scrubs, which she wrote, get your facts straight, she had her own money to begin with, and even if she didn’t she is with him, and they live together and she’ll soon be his wife so why would it even matter if she worked, the truth is he told her not to work because she has kids to take care of, including those 2 boys whose mama wants more money, do you think they are only with him, thats her house too. The other baby mom is ghetto and greedy and jeleous that she can’t live the life Tiny is, he’s all over the place with Tiny, so evidentally the other one didn’t fit the part as the rich rapper’s wife and now she’s a hater.
nunya
first of all that is his baby mama who should stay home with the children when one parent is most of the time out of the scene. we must remember that ti is a millioniar who is still making more millions why not take care of your childrens care giver. why would he want her to work when she could be home giving her all to them and filling in for what he’s not doing for them. its not about her or him but it ’s about what sitaution is best for the children.Yes he should of baught the house for the CHILDREN and yes he should give more money because if he is living large his CHILDREN should too.
I think 2000 is a lot of child support a month..and he is doing extra..I wish I had that for my children as they were growing up. The mother should be going to school..or work if finished school to make herself worth..because not to wish any bad issues..but in reality if he was gone tomarrow or left yesterday where would you be? or think ahead..his future wife will get everything first, unless he has a will. So where would you be then?so bottom line you have to thank God for your blessing..yesterday you had nothing..but your two blessed sons..and today you have a home, car and money..and what no job….can we trade places.
let’s do accounting..if true..2000.00 month child support, private school..possible 6000.00 to start for the both of them a year. ..and the daddy call can I have ..that could add up to about 600 yr..activities in school could be another 1000 or so a yr..and then holidays and brithdays..wow I will not add that because if he is like I was then he want them to have a great day and have whatever they want. I am getting a headache I can’t count any more..for those others..leave tina out of it..you don’t know what happens behind closed doors..or what came in the doors..my best sugestion is TI as I tell my son;s if you do for yours ..save the reciepts…
My brother has a blog similar to yours but it is written in Spanish. I like yours better to be honest.
