T.I. might be a free man, but it doesn’t mean that he’s taking things slow.  The King of the South is busy with his new gigs with fellow rappers: Rick Ross, P. Diddy, DJ Drama and many more.  Look out for his upcoming work.  Speaking of work, the King is also working on his wedding preparation with fiancee, Tameka “Tiny” Cottle, and the lovebirds were seen at Rodeo Drive, Beverly Hills just yesterday.

We love the couple!  If you love your man, some AKOO pieces might be appropriate to give him as a surprise.  Below are our favorite AKOO stuff:

AKOO Rugby Union Touchline Long Sleeve, was $98, now $66.99

AKOO Porter Jeans, was $110, now $54.99

From the fab bunch, we have Carrie Underwood leading the way with her golden sparkly dress.

While we love Jennifer Hudson’s red carpet dress, we also had our eyes set on her stagewear.  She looked amazing!

British star, Estelle, rocked a sparkly number which complemented Kanye’s… err… blazer.  Okay, now we have a question: could it be Estelle has serious insecurity issues about her hips?  She keeps on wearing dresses with fake hips!  Or was it Kanye’s idea?  We’ll never know.  Note to Yeezy: while we love your boldness, glittery stuff is really girls’ domain.

Fantasia looked fantastic with her embellished dress.  We’re just not really feelin’ the shoes.

We absolutely love Gwyneth Paltrow’s metallic strapless mini dress!  And for the dress’ sake, we’ll forget her ‘British’ word-drop: “…the utterly brilliant Radiohead”.  Why don’t we just leave the British thing to Madonna for now.

To tell you the truth, we’re kinda down and out with celebrities wearing those Herve Leger bandage dress.  But Tiny rocked the metallic version this time.  She grew a sense of style!  We’re not really with TI this time, ‘coz we prefer his undone tuxedo look when he performed with the “Rap Pack” onstage.

Paula Abdul tried to get on board the metallic glam trend, but she boarded the fashion trainwreck instead.  Nice try, Paula.

And so did Katy Perry, who puts rhinestones on her ‘fruity’ getup.  Thank God it’s just for show.  She actually looked much better on the red carpet.

Any thoughts on this looming trend, people?

Big Boi is the first celeb pinup for AKOO. Ad photos were shot by legendary photographer, Zach Wolfe.

Um not so sure about the crazy socks BB. The fedora’s pimp though. Wonder what kicks he’s got on? AKOO doesn’t make footwear… yet.

Big Boi is wearing the AKOO Snobby Fame Tee…

So as we previously mentioned, TI is kinda busy with his new reality show for MTV: “Road To Redemption”, and he ain’t kidding.  Because we finally get to see the show trailer and we wanna share it with you.

One word: INTENSE.

Heck yeah, we didn’t think we’d see a dead person on an MTV show.  But well, if it’s true what they said before that the show is really intended to set young people straight in an extreme way (read: scary) so they’ll stay out of trouble… then it works.  We’re scared out of our minds seeing the trailer.  As you know, the show is counted as part of TI’s community service hours and we think he’s doing a great job.  We like his words of wisdom: “I am going through it, so you don’t have to.”

Originally, MTV brought a show concept somewhat similar to “Li’l Kim’s Countdown to Lockdown” on BET to TI, only by installing cameras around his house when he was on house arrest.  But TI declined this idea ‘coz it was boring, and felt like he needed to help teenagers who were at risk of doing crime.  That’s how they came up with the Road to Redemption concept.

One question from the fashion side of it, though:

Will he be wearing AKOO swags on the show?

Well we don’t know yet, but we know one thing for sure.  If you, like us, are AKOO fans, see more of AKOO clothing by TI.

TI was in Atlanta to speak at “The Atlanta Chapter of The Recording Academy presents Conversation with Rapper/Actor, T.I. (Clifford “Tip” Harris) and, CEO of Grand Hustle, Jason Geter hosted by Atlanta’s W-VEE Radio’s Ryan Cameron”.  The event was held at Centerstage.

Okay, now how do we know TI was wearing a brand new AKOO polo shirt? Well, we’re all familiar with the type, only it came in black and white.

Remember this AKOO One Whip Polo shirt?  It’s available at DrJays, but the green version (as seen worn by TI) is not yet available online, but you bet we’re gonna be the first to report when you can cop it.

The hottest man in Hip Hop, T.I. is gearing up for his new reality show on MTV.

As we all know, T.I. was convicted of felony gun charges last year and as part of his plea deal was sentenced to 1,000 hours of community service to be completed before March 27, when he’ll go behind bars for a year.

T.I. said he has already done 864 hours and this show is supposed to be the addition to the community service.

The show, titled “T.I’s Road to Redemption: 45 Days to Go” will be premiering on MTV in February.  T.I. hopes that this show will scare teens straight.  Well we hope so too, because who would wanna be in jail anyway?

Anyway, here’s something from T.I. that won’t scare you. It’s a Lieutenant, but not the scary type.  It’s the AKOO Lieutenant jeans.

Cool huh?  Well, we think so too.  See more of TI’s AKOO Clothing Line.

Our man, TI was out doing a good deed and we love him for it.  TI spent some time at Atlanta’s Cascade Roller Rink, giving out toys to local community children.  He teamed up with A.G. Entertainment and radio station V-103 in this do-good mission, being early Santa to the kids.

And that smile is C U T E!

We love his swag.  We also wanna feature something we love from his AKOO Clothing line, and this one is fresh.  Check out the AKOO FOX Hill Hoodie.

We swore we’ve seen him wearing this swag before.  Yep, we’re right.
