Music News: T.I. returns to the studio with Gaga

Earlier this year, T.I. had jaws dropping when he announced that he’d recorded some 80 songs for his upcoming album King Uncaged, and that at least one of them was a collaboration with Lady Gaga.
“[She's a] phenomenal talent. Extremely proud [to work with her]. She’s definitely that good. She knows what she’s doing. She knows exactly what she wants people to think and say,” Tip said of Gaga. “She does everything that she needs to be done to ensure it happens. I think she’s an entertainer, in all aspects of the word … a classic, all-around entertainer. A global star.”
A few months later, he continued to heap praise on LG, calling her “a phenomenal talent … that transcends through all genres, all races, all religions.”
But while T.I. was clearly enthused about the collaboration, he also stopped short of saying whether or not his song with Gaga would actually end up on Uncaged, joking, “I’m not gonna let no cats out of no bags.” And now, we know the reason why.

In a new interview with Rap-Up.com, TIP revealed that the song would more than likely be re-worked … or scrapped entirely. Why? Gaga insisted that she could make something even better.
“[Gaga] brought it to my knowledge that she would like to top what we already have,” he said. “That being said, I don’t know if that’s going to be a keeper or if that’s going to be one-upped or what not.”
So at the moment, the fate of the collaboration seems to be up in the air. But T.I. doesn’t seem to be all that upset … after all, he was thrilled just to work with the Mother Monster on a track.
“I begged on hands and knees [to work with her], ‘Please!’” he joked. “I worked with the producer RedOne and made it known that I was interested in working with her, and the enthusiasm was shared, and we were able to get it done.”

"King Uncaged" is expected to hit stores September 27th, with the albums official second single due to premier soon.

So it was GaGa's idea to rerecord the song

I love her mentality: I can always do better.

i dont think itll be that good. T.I. hasn't made a catchy melodic song in a while. And Gaga goes all out ghetto lol. Well atleast she did on "Chillen''. It wasn't so poppy.

Must we remind you of Telephone! Video Phone was bound to flop the minute it became a single, and it was chosen only because it sounds close to Telephone, so nobody really cared. And Chilling because Gaga tried to help Wale, her labelmate, get his name out. That wasn't supposed to be a hit either. Telephone was the only one they took seriously, and look what happened

Big Dreams

This will go to #1 he'll have himself a hit this era when that drops he needs to go as hard as Eminem did this year though

iLays

Got Your Back is a hit

beyoncefan1

Yeah right it can ever break the top 20 and for T.I. that's a massive flop! He better get this track done wit GaGa and ge it out quick if he wants to get outta the flop zone and back to ruling the charts!
