T.I. TELLS KING READERS TO GET MORE POLITICAL: Rapper is guest-editor for November issue.
*In the new politically-themed November issue of King magazine, T.I. served as guest editor and urges readers to put the video game controllers down and plug into the presidential race.
"When I'm speaking to young people and they say, 'Who you voting for?' I say, 'Well, what you think's wrong with the country?," says the rapper, 28, in a roundtable discussion. "What problems do you need to be fixed? OK, then cut your PlayStation off and turn to CNN and listen to these people."
"Listen to each of the candidates' platforms, and whoever you think is speaking passionately and intelligently and will do the things you think need changed, that's who you vote for," he adds.
In another segment of King's November issue, T.I. wrote a fantasy collaboration with T-Pain, which included riffs on mistakes the rapper believes President Bush made in his two terms.
As for his guest editor gig, T.I. said in a statement: "It's only right that King would indeed have a king as editor in chief. I guess this is, indeed, my magazine. Understand that. ... Keep it pimpin'."
