New T.I. Interview - Working w/ Amy Winehouse, Losing Endorsements, etc

T.I. sat down with The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, and gave a great interview regarding the last six months of his life. Much of it focused on what changes he's had to make, and how things need to be different in the future. He plans to release a new single within the next two weeks, as well as record new music with Amy Winehouse. He says he's not sure if the song will end up on her album or his, but it should be good stuff.

Of course. You can't be expected to take advantage of all of the opportunities that are there for you if you can't even leave your house.*Q. You had a very prominent car endorsement deal.*A. Sure. GM.*Q. Is that still in effect?*A. Nah GM had to back up off of me. There are films that I missed out on. Not speaking of, of course, shows. Tours. Tons of business. I've probably lost about $10 to $12 million dollars.*Q. And you smile after saying that.*A. [Laughs harder] Sometimes you laugh to keep from crying. But you know, I'm blessed to be able to be out here to make $10 to $12 [million] more. Especially considering I brought this all on myself. So you know — minimal injury. Maximum lesson learned.
