After T.I. re-entered a low-security federal prison in Arkansas on Monday to serve an 11-month sentence for probation violations, the Rapper posted a message on his website to address his actions.
"To all of you who say, 'He should practice what he preaches,' and 'How could he do something so stupid... AGAIN?'
You're absolutely right, and I couldn't agree with you more," wrote T.I. "But you know what? As history has shown us before, I find my greatest inspiration during my darkest hours. So all fans of music, T.I. or not, should be able to agree that No Mercy will surely be my best work yet. After all, isn't that what it's all about?
If I never went to prison, never did drugs, never f'ed up again, did everything right and never made great music... would you even care enough to comment on T.I.? Doubt it, so bear that in mind while you jump to your conclusions. Martin Luther King once said, 'Notice not the comments of your enemies but the silence of your friends.' So although I'm still in touch, watching, reading and listening, I'm not concerned with what negative people say more than I am with what positive people don't."
