T.I.'s Swing Ya Rag Vid Put On Hold

Although many news outlets reported T.I.'s next single would be "Swing Ya Rag," the clip never made it on major television networks. That info left a lot of T.I. fans asking what was up with that? Apparently, there was a bit of fashion controversy surrounding the video. It seems Louis Vuitton and Gucci were not happy to have their product featured all up and through the hip hop anthem.

"We did it, and it came out hot," T.I. told MTV. "Louis Vuitton and Gucci started trippin' about it. They were saying we were infringing, in one way or another. They weren't happy about it. They didn't want it to come out. But it's hot, though."

He also added that more singles would be coming from Paper Trail. "Live Your Life," a Just Blaze-produced song which features Rihanna will be out soon, and "Swagger Like Us" can be a potential last single. "I hope we can pull that off," T.I. adds. "That was the definite intentions initially. We have to see when everybody is all available. I'm available whenever they are." Currently, he is planning a tour and working on his latest film, Bone Deep.
