T.I. Concert Cancelled at Penn State

On going legal issues have forced Atlanta rapper T.I. to cancel a highly anticipated upcoming show next weekend in Pennsylvania.

T.I. was supposed to his the stage at Penn State’s Bryce Jordan Center next Friday (September 24th), but organizers have announced the show has been unexpectedly canceled.

According to the Bryce Jordan Center, fans can get refunds from their point of purchase, while credit card holders will automatically be reimbursed for their purchases.

The concert cancelation comes on the heels of T.I.’s recent arrest in Los Angeles for drug possession.

Police found ecstasy on T.I. and his wife Tameka “Tiny” Cottle, after the rapper allegedly made an illegal U-turn on the Sunset Strip, in his Maybach on September 2nd.

Both T.I. and his Tiny have been charged with possession of a controlled substance, just six months after the rapper was released from prison after serving a year for attempting to purchase machine guns.

The news of the concert cancelation comes as the rapper’s fate as a spokesman with Axe is in question.

Reps for the body wash issued a statement earlier this month, chastising the rapper for his drug arrest, which could violate the terms of his probation and send him back to prison.

“We are troubled by this arrest,” an AXE rep said in a statement. “In order to preserve the legal process, AXE will comment at a later time, as appropriate. In the meantime, we are reviewing our promotional activities.”
