Bring 'Em Out!! T.I. Stuck in the Slammer 'til Friday

T.I.T.I. was supposed to have his day in an ATL court this afternoon, but a federal magistrate kiboshed that plan, denied his bond and delayed the hearing until Friday. I'm serious!

The rapper, whose real name is Clifford Harris, is currently in custody -- and prosecutors want to keep him there 'til his trial, which could be months away! The magistrate will decide on Friday whether there was probable cause for Harris' arrest and whether he will qualify to be released on bail before the trial.

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports Harris was wearing a black shirt and black pants and was led into court with his hands cuffed and his legs chained.

He was arrested Saturday on multiple weapons charges.

UPDATE: This afternoon, the ATF showcased the guns seized in the case (pictured below).

61. @ Lenn K.

don't know if you noticed but they're millionaires, how the hell did they manage that? of course by being strong but not by stealing. I'm sure you and others like you would love to see strong people who you have nothing in common with take a more submissive stance but the truth is you'll never get rid of people who aren't scared to oppose you and whatever you stand for! and another thing there are a lot of bit**es and hos out there just look at lindsey and britney to name a few but don't worry they'll take care of themselves.

63. T.I. is a Felon, He has NO right to own a gun, and he deserves to be in prison. But then again, he is a celebrity and will be out soon, so sad.....

66. cont. to the black community anymore rap is made and marketed to suburb kids who dont know what the hood id really like. cant you see how formulaic and garbage rap is now? its garbage cause of its audience, white people. real rap scares you, makes you think, this crap makes you bob your head and sing words that rhyme. The kicker is that if you white people wew not so mad about oj simpson, blacks would not have been so happy. we didnt like oj simpson, he sold out and married a white girl, the black community did not care what he did to his drug addict, trailer trash wife. you alll cared, you all cried at the trial, you all fabricated evidence to make a man look guilty and it backfired on you. If tom cruise got caught with a trunk full of rpg's, black people would say, "damn Tom, what were YOU doing? "and lovely keep it movin. only the white man goes nyaa nyaaa and makes racist remarks from the safety of his cubicle or house. just like xbox live. funny thing is im 27 and never hear any of this bold and reckless talk in the streets.......................

68. YOU CAN SAY WHAT U WANT ABOUT HOW MUCH OF A LOSER HE IS BUT HERE ARE THE FACTS CONCERNING THIS LOSER
LETS SEE IF PARIS AND LINDSEY EVER DID THIS!!!!

T.I. has stepped up his community involvement as well, taking the lead on several initiatives to help the victims devastated by Hurricane Katrina, including personally donating $50,000 to the relief effort while leading an on-air Labor Day pledge drive on Atlanta's V-103 FM that raised over $263,000 for Mississippi rapper David Banner's "Heal the Hood" Foundation. He also partnered with David Banner and Atlanta newcomer Young Jeezy for a two-day food and clothing drive at Atlanta's Club Vision and co-headlined a massive benefit concert on September 17, sharing the bill with heavyweights such as Nelly, OutKast's Big Boi, and David Banner - with 100 percent of the proceeds going to "Heal the Hood".

In addition to his Hurricane Katrina relief efforts, T.I. worked with troubled youths at Paulding Detention Center in Atlanta, provided scholarships for single parent families at Boys and Girls Clubs, and headlined Boost Mobile's RockCorps concert at New York's Radio City Music Hall, which featured such performers as Fat Joe, Slim Thug, and Kanye West, and was held exclusively for community service volunteers. In June 2005, The Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes Foundation, named for the deceased member of multi-platinum female group TLC, and Atlanta's V-103 honored T.I. with the 2005 Lisa Lopes Award for groundbreaking achievements in music and community service which was court ordered. With this steady list of growing accomplishments T.I. is being recognized as the "Jay-Z of the South." according to Pharrell Williams of multi-platinum production team The Neptunes.[18].

T.I. has joined forces again with the Make-A-Wish foundation to grant an Orlando teen's wish. He joined labelmate/protege' Young Dro on stage for a taping at The Showtime At The Apollo to meet 15 year old Sara Labare on October 15 at the Apollo Theatre. Labare, who suffers from an autoimmune disorder, received a digital camera,an autographed poster, CDs, and sat in the front row during T.I.'s performance. T.I. has granted a total of 3 wishes.

T.I. kept a fan smiling when he showed up at 11-year-old Ajmal Acklin's, who suffers from acute lymblastic leukemia with Christmas gifts. Hot-107.9 announcer Griff asked the 11 year old does he like T.I. and Acklin responded "Yes" and his favorite song was "What You Know". Griff told him that T.I. was here and the 11-year-old's eyes lit up. T.I. walked in and said: "How you doing, I just wanted to come see how you're doing ... I heard the church bought you a PlayStation 3, so I got you some games". One by one, each visitor offered their prayers and well wishes, ending with A-Team intern Ree Williams doing a stirring a capella version of the gospel tune "Even Me". Before she hit the last note Ajmal's mom ducked into the kitchen, tears in her eyes.

T.I.'s King Foundation is also scheduled to donate 10,000 bikes to the Boys & Girls Club in New Orleans.

T.I.'s night club, Club Crucial, where he and V-103 announcer Greg Street will give away 200 bicycles to neighborhood children in the Boys & Girls Club.[19]

71. Man i wish my homeboy the best, I aint gonna say that he didn't do anything but who really knows.... cause his bodyguard snitched and he could be lying because he doesn't want to go to jail and nobody else goes with him. but i will say that thats what happens when you hang with the wrong people like dj toomp said. but TIP said that his bodyguards are licensed to own weapons and they stay in the same house with him, so i guess you just have to wait and see. BUT he will always be my favorite rapper and we from the same hood so this is for my ZONE 1 BANKHEAD FOLKS!!!!!! and another thing is that some of yall people that are commenting on tip and dissing him man yall fake cause yall know yall be the same ones jockin that dude when he comes out with a BANGER!!! but when something like this happens yall the first ones to talk about that him yall just some....

73. The system should treat T.I. just like they would treat John Doe if he were caught in this situation. If I got caught with all that stuff, I would be good as gone. Not saying I'm an angel, but I think I've been walking the straight and narrow, so why do I get the book thrown at me but celebs get 1 million chances? I wish the times I got jammed up I had the option of telling the judge well, let me out because my job needs me to go to work on Monday, lol yeah sure. He knew exactly what he was getting himself into. And this has nothing to do with Atlanta or the criminal system playing favorites, this is simply God spanking T.I.'s ass for everything he thought he got away with.
