Tip and Jeezy have been teasing us with the idea of a joint project for years, but now it looks like it may actually come to fruition.
On Thursday night, both artists were special guests for Power 105’s #Powerhouse event in NYC. While backstage, T.I. spoke with MTV News about the possibility of that joint album, pointing out at that both of them just got done releasing albums (Seen It All & Paperwork), so they now have time to put the proper actions in motion. Tip tells MTV,
“We’ve been talking about it for years, but we finally putting the execution part of it in the works. Usually, when we talking about it, either he’s working on finishing his album or I’m working on finishing mine. This is like one of the first times that we both putting our albums out around the same time. I’m done with my process, he’s done with his process, now we can collectively come together and do something together."
"We already have probably about six, seven records. It don’t take us long to put it together. It’s just a matter of actually finding the time to promote it, market it, and actually get it done.”
Later, Jeezy was asked the same thing about the joint project, in which he replied,.
"Keep your eyes and your ears open. That’s my brother from another right there. We stay in our bag, so, you know, I would just stay focused if I was you. It’s like we brothers, man. We just vibe. We go in there, have a good time, we make good music. It’s nothing that’s rehearsed or nothing that’s thought about; it’s organic."
Hopefully this all holds true and we can get what would be one of the biggest collabs to date. Check out the interviews below.
