T.I. T.I.
The rapper fully addresses the ongoing scandal involving him and his wife, Tiny.

Following the repeated denials coming from T.I., Tiny, and their legal team, the rapper is now expressing himself on wax. T.I. and Tiny are facing accusations of drugging, sexual misconduct, rape, and sexual assault from two dozen women. They've faced ridicule in the court of public opinion and their former friend, Sabrina Peterson, claims that she even helped them pick up women for bedroom rendezvous, but the couple continues to vehemently deny the allegations.

On Thursday (May 20), T.I. surprised the world with a social media post that said he'd be releasing a new song in less than 24 hours, and it has arrived. "What It's Come To" addresses the couple's current controversy and T.I. makes it clear that both he and his wife have no intention of settling with any of the accusers. He suggests that he's being targeted and states that if it comes down to pleading his case in court, he's prepared to go the distance.

Quotable Lyrics

F*ck that I'm crankin' up the jury
Who you lyin' on, Shawty?
Extortion, is that what you got
Your mind on Shawty?
Tell em get it how you live
Shawty I ain't goin' for it
I'mma take it all the way
Every day of the week
Bet you thought this sh*t was sweet
And I would pay in a week
