Grammy-winning rapper T.I. is making sure the world never forgets his longtime late friend Philant “Big Phil” Johnson. The hip-hop veteran has bought his daughter a new car as a special back to school gift in his memory.
Tip went to Instagram last night (August 22) with footage of his good deed.
Back in 2006, T.I. admitted Phil’s death through a drive-by shooting made him reconsider his life and career.
“I’m kind of like watching my life change right before my eyes. I’m figuring out whether or not I even want to keep doing this [stuff] right now. I don’t know,” said T.I., who spoke at Johnson’s funeral on Monday at Jackson Memorial Baptist Church in Atlanta. (MTV)
Outside of Big Phil, T.I. recently teased a possible adidas Originals collaboration going down.
