T.I. Wants To Be Remembered In " Remember Me"

Contrary to what appears to be the case in the new “Remember Me” video, T.I. is not spending his days behind bars at Arkansas’ Forrest City Federal Correctional Facility shooting music videos, and Mary J. Blige filming guest spots during visitation hours. The video was was filmed weeks before Tip’s official lockup on May 26th, but the video gives fans a taste of some of the tribulations facing T.I. as he’s pulled out of the real world and separated by from the rest of society by metal bars. Loved ones move on, and family members stop writing when one is locked up, fueling Mary J. Blige to sing for T.I. “Remember me.”

“Remember Me,” originally dubbed “Don’t Forget” when it leaked out back in May 2009, was supposed to be the first official track released off the planned Paper Trail: Case Closed reissue, however MTV is now reporting that plans to release Case Closed have been nixed. “The re-release is definitely not happening,” a rep for Atlantic Records told MTV, adding “We plan on releasing the additional songs digitally.”

“Remember Me” is already available for download on Atlantic’s Website. “Remember Me” won’t be the only time fans will get to see Tip while the rapper is sporting the orange jumpsuit in an Arkansas penitentiary. Fansite Trap Musik reports that a video for “Hell of a Life,” another track off of the now-canceled Paper Trail reissue, was also filmed prior to T.I.’s lockdown. Unlike “Remember Me,” “Hell of a Life” features much more uplifting subject matter like video vixens, nice rides and people smiling. Check the video out below, Thoughts? I like very much!!
