T.I. Admits He Never Wanted His Kids in Showbiz: We Need More Doctors, Lawyers, Engineers

In a recent interview with Arian Simone, T.I. opened up about not wanting his daughters in the male-dominated entertainment industry.

He emphasized the need for children, including his own, to explore careers beyond the confines of entertainment and embrace opportunities in other fields, such as real estate, law, engineering, and medicine. T.I. reveals that he never wanted his children, including his daughters, to experience the “treachery and betrayal” prevalent in the entertainment industry. Instead, he wanted them to carve their own paths and pursue careers that would allow them to create a lasting impact. He stresses the need for professionals in non-entertainment fields, such as lawyers, doctors, engineers, architects, and venture capitalists.

The music industry often tends to overshadow other professions, with a multitude of talented individuals gravitating towards a career in entertainment. However, T.I. believes the world needs a more balanced representation of expertise and skills beyond the realms of entertainment.
