T.I. posted a page of the black history on his social media account. This sparked an intense debate in the comments section.

‘Black History Everyday‼️#USorELSE✊🏽’ Tip captioned his post.
Someone said: ‘I do not like this hashtag OG. It implies there’s a side to choose. I respect you to the utmost but it’s not because you got more melanin than me, and I don’t think you should despise me cause I have less #WEAREONE #ONWARDANDUPWARD.’

One follower posted: ‘Learn something new every day…I’m glad to say I read more books now then I did as a kid…the best education you can get is the one you give yourself #CarterGwoodson.’
Another commenter wrote: ‘This was actually a great listen. His interview is on YouTube. Best advise from Fountain “Never buy anything on time” aka credit cards 💳. 🙌🏾 Dope post.’
A fan shared this: ‘I’ll never understand why it becomes problematic for someone to enlighten us on our history, why he has to choose to include everyone when he wants to highlight us. Everyone knows Tip is not racist. Have you not seen the makeup of his beautiful family. 🙄Geesh.’
Someone was grateful to Tip and said: ‘Thanks Mr. Harris, I really wish people would stop trying to make you out to be a racist person; that is so absurd when you and the majority of people have African American & Caucasian ancestors in our families.❤️’
Another Instagrammer posted that ‘Anybody can become angry – that is easy, but to be angry with the right person and to the right degree and at the right time and for the right purpose, and in the right way – that is not within everybody’s power and is not easy.’
Other than this, Tip has been successful with his new podcast called Expeditiously.
