      Now that he’s convinced everyone that he’s the King of the South, T.I. wants to become the King of Hip-Hop Entrepreneurs. (Look out, Diddy!) Tip recently launched Grand Hustle Films and has started working on a new movie based on Atlanta’s car culture. He disclosed details of the movie to HHNLive.com.

      “We producing a film called For Sale. We finished the script and we’re just going after directors right now. We’re gonna be casting after that and it’s set in the world of car dealerships in Atlanta. There’s a lot of those in Atlanta because it’s a place where you gotta have a car.”

      Tip added that since ATL’s transit system isn’t “as elaborate” as New York’s, riding the bus is not always an option. And, since most people can’t always afford to shell out on a new whip, “you have tons of ‘Buy Here, Pay Later’ types of places,” says T.I.

      “It’s a whole hustle in itself and with that whole world. We’ve just found it easy to find humor in it.”

 

T.I. vs. T.I.P. is due out on July 3rd, 2007.
