Laying in bed with his tiny granddaughter, T.I. it appeared he had rocked her to sleep, in turn causing him to take a snooze. 

He captioned the photo, ‘Completely In Love. We’ve been blessed beyond measure time & time again. God is The Greatest. Message to da young hittas from Big Papa Tip….Live to Get old….it’s dope AF‼️’

Zonnique and her rapper boyfriend Bandhunta Izzy welcomed the little girl on December 15 and since then the family has banded around the new life. 

T.I.’s wife of ten years Harris, shared the same photo of him and the baby as she gushed:

Tiny has Zonnique from a previous partner and she and T.I. share three children together Clifford, 16, Major, 12, and Heiress Diana, four. 

T.I. has Messiah Ya’Majesty, 20, Deyjah, 19, and Domani, 19, with other partners as well, though this is his first venture into life as a grandpa. 

The large family boasted their own VH1 reality show, T.I. & Tiny: The Family Hustle, that ran until 2017 and showcased the antics of their daily life.

Zonnique is a singer and host on FOX Soul’s The Mix alongside Romeo Miller, as he and the rest of the co-hosts broke the news of her birth on an episode in which she was absent. 

Pullins returned to the show less than a month after giving birth on January 6 and got candid about the labor process.  

‘Um, the experience is…it is really nasty! We will start there,’ as she talked about soiling herself during labor. 

‘I didn’t want to s**t the whole time…Cause I don’t even fart in front of my boyfriend in real life. Stuff like that is really nasty to me,’ she said while adding that overall, ‘It is a really beautiful experience.’

Earlier this month T.I. faced backlash for comments he made on his ExpediTIously podcast about quality time he spends with his daughters. 

He referred to the time as ‘thot prevention hours,’ saying he felt more protective of them ‘Because sons can’t get pregnant,’ as he talked about setting a good example so they don’t become strippers. 

‘Keep your daughter off the pole. You spending time going to daddy-daughter dances and taking her on trips where it’s just you and her, those are thot prevention hours.’

‘If you ain’t putting in your thot prevention hours and your daughter end up a dancer, don’t blame her now. You did not set an example. You did not show what the f**k it was that she should be doing versus what she’s doing,’ he said. 

People were outraged as he implied he raises his kids with double standards, with many feeling his comments were disrespectful towards sex workers.
