T.I. Responds To Being Booed At Comedy Show: “I Loved It”

T.I. may have faced his toughest crowd yet.

The rapper-turned-comedian took the stage during the April Fools Comedy Jam at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center on Saturday alongside comedians like Rip Micheals, Nick Cannon, Eddie Griffin, Bruce Bruce, and Michael Blackson.

Apparently it was a sold out show but it doesn’t appear fans were feeling Tips set. A video clip circlutaing online shows the rap star telling a joke where he defines the word “anonymity,” but it fell flat and the audience quickly started booing him.

“Well, Goddamn,” he said upon hearing the boo’s.

Several hours after the video went viral Tip hopped on Instagram Live to address the incident with comedian Michael Blackson.

“Yes! I loved it,” he said entusiatically. “I didn’t feel like they were booing me. I felt like they were booing me as, ‘I dare you to be more funny, I dare you to overcome this. I dare you to do better.’ I feel like that’s what they challenged me to do and I did it.”

The following day Tip took the stage again in Atlanta and seemed to impress the crowd with his jokes. Blackson showed him some love online writing:

“My Neega bounced back, nothing like home Modasucka @troubleman31 great night in ATL”

One thing about T.I. he’s going to turn lemons into lemonade. We’re certainly happy to see him keep going and not let one bad night discourage him.
