Boosie & TI Call Their Sons Out As Props
The trending video, which was collected and shared by The Shade Room, begins with Tip shouting loudly in a group of people. King, Boosie, and Tootie Raww all appear in the viral clip.
“Treat me the way you would treat yourself,” TI said and walked away from the group. Boosie then interjected and said, “Why do you guys have so many guns, man?” Why do you guys always have to have guns?
TI added, “What’s with the gun, man?” while standing next to Boosie.
King Harris then responded, “It’s not illegal to own a gun.” But TI didn’t back down, adding that the “manner” and “lifestyle” King allegedly portrayed in the music video made gun ownership seem illegal. In response, Boosie let the boys know he wouldn’t support the video. TI agreed.
“What kind of parents support their children when they slide, ride and jump…” Tip said before asking the crew who would take ownership of the guns on set if the police arrived.
“…Who’s raising their hand?” he asked.
Both Boosie and T.I. then began to inquire about what legal trouble King Harris and Tootie Raww could get into for bringing guns onto the set, especially if there were any drugs present. However, King denied having any drugs.
“That’s a felony, thank you!” TI loudly declared.
Tip then asks Tootie and King why their music doesn’t focus on anything other than the gangster lifestyle, like “love.” Someone replies, “So do we” before the video cuts off. Check out the interaction between father and son below.
