News- T.I. Speaks On S.L.U. Leak & Chamillionaire on Internet Nerds Revenge

“That’s some bullshit,” a disappointed Tip told MTV News Saturday afternoon (August 23) via phone. “I’m beating down the Internet as we speak.”

The MC — who will perform a song from Paper Trail at the MTV Video Music Awards on September 7 — obviously isn’t upset with how well “Swagger Like Us” (or “S.L.U.”) turned out or even the immediate positive reaction it’s gotten. He just had planned on presenting his song properly rather than having it just thrown out there. He said it could have been “that much bigger” if he’d had the chance to roll it out in grand fashion.

“Don’t ruin the event,” he lamented. “Wait till the cake comes out the kitchen before you eat it. That’s like a kid who sees his toys before Christmas; it takes away from me and I think it takes away from the fans as well. When it’s time, I’mma give it to you. They leaked my record with me and The-Dream ["Like I Do"] too. Leakage is never a problem I have had. I’m not used to it.”

This is the last track you’ll hear before Cham drops his upcoming mixtape, Mixtape Messiah 4 on Wednesday. Here’s what he had to say about the song:

“Internet Nerd’s Revenge.” “The online thing is real big right now,” Cham said. “Even though I’m dropping this in the streets … I see rappers online, and it matters what’s said online. You go to MTVNews.com and see what they saying on Mixtape Monday. Fans complain about everything. They complain about Weezy when he does right, when he do wrong. Same thing with Kanye and everybody. Me and my boys went to all these Web sites, and we took a whole list of everything everybody said bad about Chamillionaire. I did a rap like I’m the person sitting at the computer typing and saying bad stuff about Chamilllionaire. It’s some little kid that’s on the Internet. He’s young; he’s getting all this stuff he’s saying about me. His mother comes in and asks him, ‘Did you take your medication? Are you on those porno sites again?’ I’m rapping like I’m him in his voice.” - Chamillionaire
