T.I. Speaks at Funeral For Lost Friend

A funeral was held today for T.I.’s friend that was shot and killed in Cincinatti earlier last week at which T.I., after some difficulty, gave a speech:

“I’ve held the microphone at many concerts and other situations, but I’ve never had to do anything this hard before,” Harris said with a quivering voice.

“I can tell you that we had a lot of fun spending a lot of money. We rode a lot of different cars and we just had fun.”

Hannah King, the spokeswoman for T.I.’s label Grand Hustle Records, had difficulty speaking as well:

“He was like a brother to me,” she wept. “I’ve been robbed.”

Earlier, T.I. told the Atlanta-Journal Constitution, “I’m kind of like watching my life change right before my eyes.”
