T.I. is one of the greatest to ever do it. Over 20 years in the game, he took "Let Em Know" to number one in 2026—his first chart topper since 2013, all on an independent label. For his final studio album, "Kill the King."
Wallo sits down with Tip for a real conversation about what it means to close this chapter on his own terms. They talk about the album, the EMPIRE partnership, what independence means for artists watching, ATL the movie, family, his kids, and what comes next beyond music.
This is Cultural Currency. And this one is for the history books.
