TI got into a physical altercation with his son at an Atlanta Falcons NFL game when a family dispute over “silver spoon” “mockers” turned ugly.
The 43-year-old rapper – born Clifford Joseph Harris Jr. – and his wife Tiny, 48, welcomed their 19-year-old son King and others to a luxury suite at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Sunday as father and son met in one Battle.
TI was performing at the Falcons game to mark the 50th anniversary of the hip-hop celebration when a playful back-and-forth ensued as King livestreamed the entire incident on Instagram.
At the start of the clip, the Rubber Band Man hitmaker was heard saying: “King, have you ever woken up with a cockroach on your face?”
King wasn’t too pleased with the statement as he revealed that he didn’t even grow up in his parents’ villa, but lived with his grandmother.
Uh oh: TI and his wife Tiny, 48, were hosting their 19-year-old son King and others in a luxury suite at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Sunday when father and son got into an argument. Dissatisfied: TI was performing at the 50th Anniversary Hip Hop Celebration at the Falcons game when a playful back and forth ensued as King livestreamed the entire incident on Instagram
Then Tiny – real name Tameka Dianne Cottle-Harris – didn’t hold back and picked up the phone as she said: “I’ll tell you the reason why he wanted to be there.” Are you ready?
Because he can suck a pacifier over there. As a 12-year-old, he had been sucking on a pacifier since he was 12 years old. He didn’t do that in the house. He cried like a baby.’
King wasn’t too happy about the revelation, took the phone back and appeared defiant.
He replied angrily, “They’re trying to say I was over there trying to suck a paci, but they won’t tell you everything that way.” They’re trying to hide it. He capped.’
It seemed like TI and Tiny’s eldest child had reached a breaking point as he started yelling that he was known for standing by his business and even accused his parents of being drunk.
King said, ‘You n***as drank too much.’ N***as done, drunk too much.’
TI then accuses his son of being “emotional,” to which King says that he and his mother lie and joke, also known as “capping.”
King begins to scream as Tiny tries to calm him down by putting her hands around his neck.

At the time, Tiny – real name Tameka Dianne Cottle-Harris – didn’t hold back the phone as expected when she said: “I’ll tell you the reason why he wanted to be there.” Are you ready? Because he can suck a pacifier over there. As a 12-year-old, he had been sucking on a pacifier since he was 12 years old. He didn’t do that in the house. He cried like a baby.’ That’s when TI was heard interjecting as the patriarch said, “You’re embarrassing yourself and your family. You’re embarrassing yourself.” Then things seemingly get physical as the camera is covered, King can be heard screaming, ” Get away from me,” as TI continues, “You’re embarrassing yourself.”
It doesn’t seem to be working, as the teenager constantly screams to his mother about his father: “Who are you letting him play me like that!?”
Tiny tries to tell him that his father is joking, but King doesn’t believe him.
That’s when TI was heard interjecting as the patriarch said, “You’re embarrassing yourself and your family.” You’re embarrassing yourself.’
Then things seemingly start to get physical as the camera is covered and King can be heard screaming, “Get away from me,” while TI continues to say, “You’re embarrassing yourself.”
For a moment the camera could see the underside of TI’s face as it’s clear he has his son in some sort of headlock.
The “Whatever You Like” hitmaker then defiantly tells his son: “Boy, you can’t do nothing to me. That’s not something you can do to me.”
TI and Tiny welcomed King in 2004 after the rapper had already achieved major success with the platinum-selling studio album Trap Muzik.
The couple has two other children together: 15-year-old Major and seven-year-old heiress.
Back in September 2021, TI and Tiny were acquitted of sexual assault charges, months after a woman came forward to claim that the rapper and his wife had drugged and assaulted her after meeting at a nightclub 16 years earlier
TI has three children from previous relationships: 23-year-old son Messiah and 22-year-old daughter Domani with ex Lashon Dixon, and 22-year-old daughter Deyjah with his other ex-wife Niko.
Tiny has a 27-year-old daughter named Zonnique with ex Zonnie Pullins.
TI and Tiny had already been acquitted of sexual assault allegations in September 2021.
In early 2021, a woman came forward to claim that the rapper and his wife drugged and assaulted her 16 years earlier after meeting at a nightclub.
She claimed in court papers that she was first introduced to the couple by a man handing out flyers at a local mall and that she was invited to a club where they would be together the next night.
In an Instagram video, the rapper stood firm and denied “all these disgusting, anonymous accusations.”
Prosecutors decided not to pursue the case because it no longer fell under the 10-year statute of limitations in September 2021, as TMZ originally reported.
The outcome was similar to another case in which another woman accused TI and Tiny of drugging and sexually assaulting her in Las Vegas in 2010. The case in Las Vegas also did not expire, so ultimately no charges were filed.
While addressing various allegations, TI suggested that he and his wife had consensual sex with other people in their relationship, but that no one was ever forced to do anything they didn’t want to do.
“Whatever we did, we did it with consenting adults who are into what we like and like what we like,” he said in the video posted on January 29, 2021, adding: “We have never raped anyone, never raped anyone.”‘
