T.I. - Love This Life
Artist: T.I.
Producer: Mars (of 1500 or Nothin’)
Album: Trouble Man: Heavy Is the Head
Label: Hustle Gang/EMPIRE
Life hasn’t exactly been easy for T.I.; with the legal problems that have plagued the Grand Hustle mogul in recent memory, he’s more than earned the appellation, “Trouble Man.” And, unsurprisingly, these circumstances have been equally straining on his significant other. Lest she start to fantasize about finding a man with less baggage, however, Tip sets out to remind her just how much she’d miss the luxurious (if tumultuous) existence he’s given her on Love This Life, the latest single off his next LP. Mars mans the boards on this heartfelt jam; over the 1500 or Nothin beatsmith’s rolling break and soulful piano chords, Clifford Harris initially tries to allay the woman’s fears with a little Whatever You Like-style bribery, but proves more convincing when he lets the mask of high-rollerdom slip and appeals to her on an emotional level: “Your frustration I take into consideration / I’m rough around the edges, don’t bat with me and be patient… My heart is RSVP, I’ve extended an invitation.” Has T.I. won you over with this heart-on-sleeve banger? Then keep your browsers locked for all the latest on his eighth full-length, currently scheduled for a summer release.

I prefer the high energy, trapper T.I. But, with or without the "comeback single" subtext, this record is outstanding. Welcome back, Tip.

If you're not a fan of this, then you must have unreasonably high standards.

Great song, its not the T.I. i know. But the lyrics are deep, his flow is amazing. The concept of this song is amazing as well. Just one of those songs that make you think. If you consider this garbage then your an idiot this song is one of his best songs its truly deep and special. But i perfer the T.I. summer anthems.

It's cool, though nothing special. Though it has a nice vibe and 1500 cooked up a dope beat, though I think it could knock a bit harder. The chorus definitely reminds me of Whatever You Like. I think Tip can come with something stronger than this though.

if someone was to tell me T.I. was gonna sing a hook, I would have the lowest possible expectations. however, this is very pleasantly surprising...good song all around.

Well there is T.I and there is T.I.P. This is a little bit of a new direction for T.I. but every artist must continue to grow.....and he does it nicely here. And this comes from someone who's favorite TI album is Trap Muzick!

So, I guess this is a "Trouble Man" version of "Whatever You Like". It's not bad by any means, but when will TIP stop milking this cow already?
