The media has been covering the trials and tribulations as his days draw close to redemption. However, it seems as though T.I. isnt ready to go in just yet, news reports have confirmed that the Bankhead native is planning to re-release his platinum selling Paper Trail. His music days arent over as proof of his surprise performance with Young Jeezy and Ludacris in ATL last weekend shows us plenty. He once mentioned that he was going to spend time with family, take a vacation, its possible he still needs to let the fans know that they will be missed.

Within the past couple months that have passed, it seems as though T.I. has spent a large amount of time in the studio brainstorming new tracks that he wants to leave the fans while he is incarcerated. At the same time, we are also aware that over the course of the recording time for the original Paper Trail, he had recorded over 100 tracks. This re-issue of his most celebrated album to date plans to include five new tracks that have not been chosen just yet for a summer release. Speculations have risen that a Rock song featuring Fall Out Boy might make the new track cut alongside tracks produced by Rob Knox and Justin Timberlake. The original release of Paper Trail back in September of 2008 collected over 568,000 copies sold during the first week of release.

TIP recently spoke with Sway of MTV News regarding this new idea of the re-release of Paper Trail. These were his comments:

I'm still in the process of picking the songs, but I'm also still recording. I'm able to record any time, through the best of times and through the worst of times; I'm still able to record. It may change the sort of song you do, but you never can tell. You never know until that moment gets there.

At press time, an Atlantic representative confirms the news that an official re-release of Paper Trail will be on its way to retail stores all over the world soon. The release date has not been secured as yet.

Keep posted for updated information of the re-up of Paper Trail.
