The Grand Hustle King T.I. says while he served his one year in prison, fellow rap superstar Eminem gave him advice and motivation.

“I reached out to Em,” Tip says. “My management reached out to his management, just in hopes of getting him on a record. Em personally reached out to me, and we been speaking ever since, especially since I went through my situation with having to go to prison. “

“He would just kinda remind me that ‘I’ve been through dark period in my life too. You’re gonna make it. You’re one of the ones we need, so you’re gonna make it. Stand tall and walk the walk.’ He just made it a point to always reassure me of the spot that I hold in this thing that we got called hip-hop.”

“It was incredibly helpful. It was incredibly noble of him, in my eyes, to even take the time out to reach out to me.”
