T.I. SCRAPS SECOND GIG
T.I. cancelled another show at the weekend (25-26Sep10) as the rapper’s l egal troubles continue to impact his music career.
The hip-hop star and his wife, former Xscape singer Tameka Cottle, were arrested earlier this month (Sep10) on drug possession charges after cop s allegedly found marijuana in their car.
T.I. - real name Clifford Harris, Jr. - is facing jail over the arrest as he is currently on probation after spending six months behind bars on gun charges.
His mounting legal woes forced him to scrap a show in Pennsylvania, whi ch was due to take place on Friday (24Sep10), and his second gig of the w eekend at the Virgin Mobile FreeFest in Maryland on Saturday (25Sep10) wa s also axed.
Fellow rapper Ludacris filled in for T.I. at the festival, which also f eatured performances from M.I.A., LCD Soundsystem and Pavement. (LR/WNWCA
