Whew! Roomies, T.I. couldn’t seem to hold back his bombastic side eyes while watching King Harris tussle with the word “tussle.” And social media users can’t get enough of the kiii!
The father and son appeared on 2 Chainz’s podcast with his son ‘Halo & I.’ At one point during the 48-minute episode, eight-year-old Halo turned to King Harris and put his spelling skills to the test.
T.I. and King pulled up to the podcast set, looking like they were headed to two different events! The ‘Whatever You Like’ rapper looked snazzy in black dress pants, matching boots, a long-sleeved white button-down with black string designs on it, and rosy shades. Meanwhile, his mini-me wore a bright blue and yellow sweatsuit paired with sneakers. As King began spelling the word, T.I. turned his head to his son.
“T-O-R,” King said while T.I. snapped his neck backward in amazement and stood up in his seat.” King started over, saying “T-O-M-O-R-R,” and pausing as the camera panned around the room. T.I. had his eyebrows on the sky while 2 Chainz was leaning over on his couch, cracking up! King ended the spelling with “O,” and when Halo shouted back, “No,” King shot back, “That is it.”
T.I. immediately put his hand to his wrinkled forehead and let out a noise when Halo responded, “No, it isn’t.” After Halo spelled the word right, 2 Chainz revealed that he could relate to King’s struggle.
“Boy, in my text messages, the last thing I’m spelling right is tomorrow,” the ‘It’s A Vibe’ rapper said while T.I. let out a laugh.
Catch the kiii below.
In The Shade Room’s comment section, King Harris also had the roommates in stitches, relating and taking guesses about T.I.’s internal dialogue.
@iamjefferylewis wrote, “TIP still tryna figure out what happened to this one.”
@toshbeez said, “Some of yall dont really need to be laughing, because yall cant spell either, and their/there/theyre and too/two/to STILL has yall confused.”
“This the child of a man with an elite vocabulary,” @tynicolle added.
“TI looking like boy you just take ever opportunity to embarrass me,” @godschildjason wrote.
@briandbeautiful added, “When your Dad’s vocabulary repertoire is impeccable, this is definitely preposterous!”
“TI like ‘Im dismayed at how you inexplicably have under utilized the linguistic aptitude that you were born with,'” @fatdaddystacks wrote.
“TIP is appalled at this atrocity of inadequate ability to foster the necessary alphabet to facilitate what can be noun or an adverb which associates with the word ‘Tomorrow,'” @bruh_itsjordan added.
@_shadesbyweets_ alluded to King’s short-lived internet exchange with Druski over the phrase “Standing on business.” She wrote, “He can stand on business TODAY but definitely wont be TOMORROW.”
