'''''Paper Trail''''' is the sixth studio album by [[rapper]] [[T.I.]] and is scheduled for release in 2008. T.I. says he doesn't know when his Paper Trail LP will be released this year, but it was clear when he talked to [[MTV]] on Wednesday (February 12) that his competitive itch is coming out, though he's still on house arrest while awaiting trial on gun-possession charges. |

"It's a lot of bullshit out right now," he told MTV News via phone from [[Atlanta]]. "I'm not gonna front. I feel it's definitely about time for somebody to come back out and kick this thing back in gear. The rotation is suffering right now. I intend to do something about it. It's just a matter of when." |
|||
In December, Tip sent a video message to his fans via his social-networking site, [[StreetCred.com]], saying that he was 30 percent done with the album. He's obviously been putting in work since then. |
|||
"Everything's perfect, everything's perfect," [[Young Dro]] , T.I.'s childhood friend and [[Grand Hustle Records]] artist, insisted Sunday on the Grammy red carpet. "His mind's state is Paper Trail. Since he's been home, he's recorded like 50 songs. Plus, he's writing [rhymes on paper] now, so y'all in trouble." |
|||
One record that is a lock to make the album is "Let My Beat Pound." |
|||
"That's gonna be a big record," Tip said. "It's a different record. It's a record I approached differently, and it don't sound like a typical T.I. record. It's basically about when you got your first car, one of the first things was to make sure your [sound] system was right. The love for the boomin' system. It has the sentiments of [[LL Cool J]]'s 'Boomin' System,' but it kind of sounds like a [[Sir Mix-A-Lot]] [song]. It's kinda got the mood and tempo of 'Posse on Broadway,' but it's outta here." |
|||
T.I. said it's doubtful that "Let My Beat Pound" will be the album's first single, but it will definitely have a presence. "It'll probably serve the same purpose as 'Top Back' did on King." |
|||
Tip promised to give the fans a couple of singles when promotion for Paper Trail begins. "Yeah, I'm definitely gonna make sure you have enough, man," he said. "Nowadays, with the age of the computers, you gotta make sure people have more than one song, so they won't download your single then look away to somewhere else." |
