Congratulations are in order for King Harris. His father, rapper T.I., has revealed that the 20-year-old is expecting his first child.
On August 27, Hot 107.9 published an interview with T.I. and fellow rapper Young Dro via YouTube. About fourteen minutes into the interview, T.I. reflected on being the grandfather to two granddaughters. To note, T.I.’s stepdaughter, Zonnique Pullins, is a mother to a young girl, while his son, Domani, recently welcomed his own daughter.
While reflecting on his “grandpa” title, T.I. revealed another upcoming milestone in his family.
“Yeah, I got two granddaughters [and] I got a grandson on the way,” T.I. explained. “King’s about to have a son.”
From there, T.I. humorously shared what he seems most excited about regarding his family’s upcoming addition.
“And I told him [King] I’m gonna make this [one] the greatest gangster of all time,” T.I. said, chuckling. “I’m gonna raise this one to torture you the way you tortured me I promise you there will be an indictment in this young one.”
Social media users reacted to the rapper’s announcement about his son expecting his first child in The Shade Room’s comment section.
In addition to T.I. becoming a grandfather three times over, the rapper is likely excited about King becoming a dad because his son will be able to learn his own lessons in fatherhood. As The Shade Room previously reported, King landed both of his parents in the headlines in November 2023.
At the time, King was streaming on Instagram when he alleged that T.I. tries to “make him[self] look better” as a father.
“Silver spoon I aint never ate with that a day in my life,” King told viewers.
King’s statement prompted disagreement from his mother, Tiny Harris, who explained that he did grow up with a silver spoon. In turn, King alleged that Tiny and T.I. did not raise him, and he spent most of his upbringing with Tiny’s mother.
In turn, T.I. alleged that King enjoyed being with his grandmother because “he could suck a pacifier over there until he was 12 years old.” Ultimately, their discussion escalated, with King and his father getting into a brief, physical tussle.
After the incident, King took to social media with some heated statements.
By the end of the month, however, T.I. addressed the family’s viral moment, ultimately letting fans know that he and his son will always be on good terms.
