T.I. Reacts To "No Mercy" First-Week Sales

The King of the South thanks his fans for their support in helping him garner a #4 debut.

Despite being locked behind bars for violating his parole, T.I. posted impressive first-week sales for his latest project, No Mercy, which debuted at #4 with around 160,000 sold.
T.I. thanked his fans accordingly, making a post on his website, trapmuzik.com. "What up world? First off I'd like to thank everybody again for going out and supporting the 'Hustle' yet again with No Mercy last week. I can't say enough on how much I appreciate the support and all the positive feedback. I read so many tweets, letters, reviews and comments that spoke volumes to how much love was still out there and how much respect still exists for my art and my passion."
Added Tip, "I put so much of myself into what I do. I even read over the negative comments cuz' that's the kind of energy I feed off of to adjust, evolve and improve my craft until it manifests into the closest thing to perfection on the next go-round. I love hearing your opinions on what songs you like most for the next singles. We are taking all of them into consideration as we decide right now on which direction to head in."
T.I. added that he would turn this experience into a positive one, writing, "I know this seems like an unfortunate set of circumstances to endure for a career with so much potential but remember adversity builds character and character takes you places money can't. I know what's in store for me in the future so I ain't trippin' and neither should you. For now all my love and best wishes to you and yours for the holidays. Y'all hold it down out there and I'll do the same in here. And continue to spread the word about "No Mercy" & Team T.I..

Take it light and Be Eazy,

Love - King."
