Boosie Badazz and T.I.’s joint album is off the table, and Boosie is blaming T.I.’s admission to snitching on his dead cousin for ruining everything. Find out why Boosie decided to scrap the project and Tip’s response inside…
Boosie Badazz and T.I. were supposed to release a joint album, but the project has been canceled due to T.I.’s admission to snitching on his dead cousin, Toot, to avoid a gun charge.
Boosie expressed his disappointment in Tip in a VladTV interview, stating that the rapper’s confession to snitching ruined everything and that he received text messages from people discouraging him from releasing the joint album.
“With the T.I. situation, if he did that, you a f*cking rat, too,” Boosie said during the interview. “I don’t spare no motherfuckin’ body. Because if you doing anything wrong, you doing anything criminal and you cooperate with law enforcement to get you out of trouble – that means you’re cooperating. That means you’re a rat. When I saw that, I think T.I. lying. I think he went up there and got to f*cking talking.”
Boosie went on to explain that he received numerous text messages from people who discouraged him from releasing the joint album with T.I. in light of the Atlanta rapper’s confession.
Watch the clip below (at the 3:08-minute mark):
During a 2020 episode of his podcast “expediTIously,” the “Dead and Gone” rapper recalled an incident from 2000 where a firearm was uncovered as he removed stolen clothes from the trunk of a car. He said his lawyer presented him with the opportunity to “make everything go away” if he said the weapon belonged to his cousin Toot, who died during the trial. Tip admitted in the footage: “After he had passed, I had a talk with him. Toot said, ‘I’ll take all the charges you got! If you can walk away free and put it on me, goddamn right! ‘Cause I’ll be damned if they gonna come and motherfuckin’ extradite me from here!'”

Boosie went on to question whether T.I. was being entirely truthful, suggesting the self-proclaimed “King of the South” was more than willing to snitch on his cousin. T.I. was quick to respond to Boosie’s comments on Instagram, sharing a video clip of the interview and denying any wrongdoing. He also offered to show his paperwork to prove his innocence.
“Yeah so… Idk if it’s you or ya ‘OG Uncle’ that needs to see it…but I GOT MY PAPERWORK ready to show!!! PULL UP!!! My number the same & my address the same my n*gga,” T.ip wrote. “To get on da net & speak on sh*t you’ve never spoke to me about is leaving me to believe you been hiding ya heart the whole time!!!! I’d NEVER speak ‘certain disrespect’ on your name/reputation bout a ‘IF’ homie… da convict code say When in doubt…pull the paperwork out!!! & ‘IF’ you ain’t did that…
”Now…Idk what type of time you on but I say again… ‘IF’ it was a question or confusion bout anything I said you could’ve called and asked… so u can report back & tell ya ‘OG’ …or you could’ve pulled up & checked the blk & white like I’m offering now. Either way tho my nga… I ain’t bound to no n*gga’s opinion of me… cause what dey ‘THINK’ will NEVER overrule what I KNOW!!!
He continued, ”So don’t wonder no mo’ homie…. answer the “IF”… PULL UP & report back to da rest of these n*ggaz who opinions matter so much to you. Cause I could Give a F*ck bout what no nigga think bout me!!! “The tail shall never wag the dog” Leadership Leads…. wit facts and stats… we don’t follow no fantasyland sh*t…remember that!!! & I ain’t bending my knees for nothing or fearing nothing but GOD!!! So cmon & see what you speaking bout so next time you can speak intelligently. @mamaheliveagain.2.0 I expected more from you. This sh*t ain’t solid. obviously I thought we WAS something we WASNT”
Boosie and T.I. were reportedly working on a joint album together since 2021, but it seems that project has been axed due to the recent drama. Boosie ended his VladTV interview by stating that the album will not be released, saying, “It ruined everything.”
It remains to be seen whether or not T.I. and Boosie will be able to reconcile their differences and move forward. We hope this doesn’t escalate into violence and that both rappers can find a way to resolve their differences peacefully.
