T.I starts Grand Hustle Films, works with Danny Glover

by FULLMETAL

MONDAY JUNE 11, 2007

In a recent interview with HHNLive.com, T.I let loose that he was adding another venture to his list- Grand Hustle Films. The first project from the new company will be “Once Was Lost”, a film starring none other than T.I himself, and Danny Glover. They are planning to begin shooting the film this fall. He also has other projects in the works that he explained further.

“We producing a film called “For Sale”. We finished the script and we’re just going after directors right now. We’re gonna be casting after that and it’s set in the world of car dealerships in Atlanta.

There’s a lot of those in Atlanta because it’s a place where you gotta have a car. Our transit system isn’t elaborate like New York. It ain’t to the point where you can ride the bus and still get to all of the places that you need to get to in a days time.

So, therefore everybody can’t afford it or has the credit to just go and get a new Benz or even a Ford for that matter. So, for that very reason, you have tons of “Buy Here, Pay Later” types of places. It’s a whole hustle in itself and with that whole world, we’ve just found it easy to find humor in it.”

T.I’s 5th album, “T.I vs. T.I.P” is scheduled to be released on July 3rd.

Thats what I was about to interject into the conversation. A rapper having a film company IS something rather new. Def Jam used to make movies but I think Master P is the first "rapper" to start his own production company... No matter how Horrid the movies are.

And heres a classic Flip line...
"I'll treat you like milk, I'll do nothin but spoil you"

I think he won a grammy for that line alone.

these other rappers did it, but if you just be honest, we all know 50 is gonna do it the right way. i have a feeling he is gonna cross over to mainstream and make some real movies and not just movies that people in the hood will watch fopr a summer or 2 and get a good laugh then the movie is forgotten about forever. and i dont mean make one movie and then thats it. i mean movie after movie after movie etc. face it rap just isnt as lucrative as it was in the past. all that jay-z going 5 times plat and dmx and all them going plat is over. thats why 50 is going to leave rap cause aint no money there, lol people with regular jobs probably make more money than some of out favorite rappers. i just want to see these rappers be successful and not rely SOLELY on rap and know that you can think of millions of different things to gain assets other than spit a hot 16.
