The rumors of Troy Ave signing to T.I.'s Grand Hustle imprint began when Tip joined the Brooklyn, New York rapper onstage at Summer Jam 2014.
Troy later appeared on Hustle Gang's G.D.O.D. 2 mixtape and dropped a verse on Tip's "Try Me" remix earlier this week.
Rap-Up caught up with T.I. to separate fact from fiction. He said there is no paperwork, but he considers Troy to be part of the family.
“Never mind the paperwork, I can’t really speak for the deals or the solidification of a professional relationship," Tip said. "But personally he’s definitely Hustle Gang. That’s something that I feel comfortable saying. He’s a solid cat. He has something that New York has been missing for quite some time and he’s not afraid to be a New Yorker. I salute him for that early on.”
The Atlanta rapper also elaborates on his collaboration with Chris Brown entitled "Private Show," which appears on his new album, Paperwork: The Motion Picture.
“We wanted to make grown women cream themselves. I think that was the pure, definite intention behind the record,” said Tip. “I think that we were both kinda trying to one-up one another: ‘You’re not gonna make a girl cream before me. I’m gonna say something that you didn’t say and it’s gonna make her feel a way that you didn’t make her feel.’ We just kinda continued that volley back and forth and then we had a little ball of inappropriate innuendos at the end of it called ‘Private Show.’”
