T.I.<\/a> has shared new music amid his back-and-forth with 50 Cent<\/a>, declaring himself \u201cthe strongest for the longest\u201d and among the \u201ctop three\u201d in Atlanta<\/a>.<\/p>\n The track was first previewed alongside a photo of Tip in a mask and sunglasses on X and Instagram. Though initially speculated as a preview of a longer track, the minute-plus song has since been shared to streaming services under the title \u201cWar.\u201d<\/p>\n It\u2019s unclear whether the song will ultimately appear on the Grand Hustle co-founder\u2019s forthcoming Kill the King<\/em> album. The album, notably, has been teased as potentially being T.I.\u2019s last.<\/p>\n \u201cThe bear hibernating, don\u2019t poke him \/ When you see the giant sleeping, shouldn\u2019t have woke him,\u201d T.I. raps in the clip.<\/p>\n Deeper into the track, he urges unspecified foes to \u201cplease hop off of my scrotum\u201d before declaring himself \u201cthe strongest for the longest\u201d and an all-time icon of the Atlanta rap scene.<\/p>\n \u201cTop three in my city, you know I\u2019m in that \/ And I ain\u2019t number three, what you gettin\u2019 at?\u201d he raps.<\/p>\n Elsewhere, T.I. laments those who \u201cpretend that the king won\u2019t get a sledgehammer for an insect.\u201d The preview closes out with him asking, \u201cOh, you n***as want war?\u201d before breaking out into laughter.<\/p>\n To be clear, Fif is not directly mentioned in the previewed track. The timing, however, has some fans wondering if this is intended for the Atlantan\u2019s would-be VERZUZ<\/em> competitor<\/a>.<\/p>\n As you\u2019ll recall, talk has revived as of late about T.I.\u2019s previous desire to take on 50 Cent in a VERZUZ<\/em> event, which has led to a back-and-forth that has played out on social media in recent weeks. At one point, Fif called Tip \u201cKing Rat\u201d in an IG comment, spurring a response.<\/p>\n \u201cYou playing on MY NAME when only one of us a rat in real life\u2026you know I got your paperwork right?\u201d T.I. wrote earlier this month<\/a>. \u201cAnd my transcript is available online. Your excuses is useless. Get yo ho ass in the box or STFU and live in fear. You soft son. You\u2019ve lost my respect. Fckn [duck].\u201d<\/p>\n This was followed by more from both artists, including T.I. saying on the Million Dollaz Worth of Game<\/em> podcast that he didn\u2019t want to \u201cstand on stage\u201d with Fif at this point, adding, \u201cI don\u2019t respect him.<\/a>\u201d<\/p>\n
