T.I. - No Matter What
Artist: T.I.
Producer: Danjahandz
Album: Paper Trail
Label: Grand Hustle/Atlantic
In March of 2009, rapper T.I. will learn if his fate includes the entire one year and a day sentence that was handed to him this past March. Until then, however, the self-proclaimed “King” will be plenty busy doing his government mandated 1,000 hours of community service and promoting his next album, Paper Trail. On the first taste of the new album, No Matter What, T.I. goes the inspirational route and raps about overcoming the odds that he faced on this nearly six-minute long song. Produced by Danjahandz, No Matter What is a record with the intention of making it known “that the king lives on.” Paper Trail is tentatively scheduled for release in late summer/early fall.
This song first appeared on the
Rap Chart
on May 5, 2008

I loved the production of the track off top. T.I's voice sounds like it did back on Trap Musik. Danjahandz did his thing and T.I showed some great contrast on this track. This doesn't seem like a typical single track someone would drop, which he probably won't. But I think it would make a career statement if he did...

After being on house arrest, I bet T.I. has a library of songs as long as Lil' Wayne (I was going to say as long as 2pac's, but I didn't want to start a war with anyone).

This is fire right here, considering I dont like when he speeds his flow up Im glad that he took his time and slowed this one down to say what he had to say. The beat on this track is monster. He needs to do a remix with Mary J Blidge on the hook or Fantansia(out of the blue right lol) just somebody with a powerful voice.

Danjahandz is doing work on this beat, and that all together. I dunno if I am ready to call it a classic, but since I havent been able to rate a 5 lately, I will. Keep ya head up TIP!
