The rapper, actor, reality show star, and author visited an L.A.’s “KTLA Morning News” to discuss his new book as well as his acting career and his reaction to Rick Ross and Young Jeezy’s backstage brawl at the BET Hip Hop Awards.
The show’s anchors questioned the rapper about his thoughts around the recent BET Hip Hop Awards fight between Rick Ross and Young Jeezy, but T.I. appeared to be oblivious to what happened.
“I didn’t even know about the fight,” said Tip, although he did attribute male ego and pride as being the root of most fights.
“Men everywhere, we have huge egos and lots of pride,” he said. “I don’t know that particular incident personally, but most fights that I hear about, it’s about pride and ego. I can’t speak for every case. I don’t know much about this case.”
During the awards, T.I. performed a medley of songs off his upcoming album Trouble Man, due December 18.
