TI helps out

TI is currently in prison, after ignoring his parole terms relating to his love of drugs. But he's actually doing something nice while inside:

"I've been blessed to receive tons and tons of mail from my fans, family and friends, as well as get visits on a regular basis. Unfortunately some guys aren't as fortunate," T.I. said in a statement obtained by MTV News. "There are a lot of good dudes in here that haven't been able to see there loved ones in years. Their families can't afford the trip so I wanted to help out."

He's paid out for families of fellow prisoners to visit this weekend. Sure, there's an element of brand-rebuilding going on here, but it's still a nice thing to do.
