Charleston White is With It, but Can TI Counter?

YouTube personality Charleston White has words for rapper T.I. After a verbal altercation with Tip’s son, White got on the line with him. There’s no end in sight for this beef. It’s still stewing.

In an exchange that included expletives being used over and over to describe Clifford Harris, White made clear his animosity for the rapper/comedian.

This all stems from an alleged threat issued by TI’s son King against White. On the flipside, White maintains that he was the one who was threatened and wanted to see King “in jail.”

White’s outspokenness has been a favorite for bloggers and podcasters alike. His name elicits a sense of energy packed into a middle aged man. On the other hand, King has involved himself in questionable behavior on the Internet for clout.

The on-going spat between the influencer, the rapper, and the heir apparent all seem to have a profound effect on the Hip Hop genre. When there is blood in the water, sharks like TI will swim towards it. Especially if it is related to his offspring.

For the exchange of words to come, the point of possible legal repercussions is how emotion driven the genre is.

Instead of thinking about the money both sides could be earning, they want to run their mouths like auctioneers. And why does it always come down to a boxing match? White wishes to step in the ring to handle business like pugilists.

He said flagrant things like calling King ugly and for Tip to address the matter with boxing gloves.

Tip responded on social media by saying that White could meet him anywhere at any time. He doesn’t harbor any feelings of “fear.”

The genre thirsts for this kind of animosity and has a short memory of what happens to people when tempers flare. Shootings, stabbings, and all sorts of mayhem leave people in the hospital knocking on death’s door. In reality, this whole kerfuffle seems to be on its way to fizzling out for good.

Everyone involved is a grown man. White is older than TI and King is still a teen. All are adults. Even when joking with TI about his snitching days, this battle of words seems to be coasting to a stop.

After all the links have been clicked and the story shared, these figures will love to look back at these times and consider them to be just fodder for Internet trolls and blogtavists.

If Charleston White continues on this pace of interacting with rappers like Soulja Boy and TI, he might find a reality TV show deal or start a podcast of his own. He could detail all of the interactions with Hip Hop figures that generated so much fuss.

King could rap to his mind’s content. He could drop diss records that could accuse White of all kinds of vicious acts…allegedly. All he has to do is cut singles and let them stream. He could eat off of all these entries.

His father could continue to be a staunch supporter of legitimate causes like snitching to save lives of decent, smart working and loved men, women and children. If there is to be any solution to this misunderstanding, it ought to cone with black men who can settle their issues rationally. If a judge has to hand out justice, then so be it. For all the tough talk going around, the law courts can determine who was right and who was wrong.

For everyone involved, there ought to be a purposeful solution to every word that has been typed or shouted into a microphone of a camera.
