#TeamTI, as for the Tip Essentials column, today we go back to summer 06 and Why You Wanna. The video to this Crystal Waters-sampled record - the record is Gipsy Woman (Shes Homeless) - was shot in Hawaii by director Chris Robison. At the beginning we see T.I. at a newstand holding a magazine with a model on the front cover. Next T.I. and his protégés hang around on the beach looking at women. T.I. spots a woman who is dating a man - played by T.I.s late friend Philant Johnson who passed away that same year - who was mistreating her and T.I. asks her why she is with him when he can treat her better. At the end is a dedication to Phil who was killed in Cincinnati at 26. - Relive the idyllic scenarios featured in the video (edited version): youtube/watch?v=U6z_cilnJzg ; - rediscover the Benztown Remix: youtube/watch?v=I8D9zWwY18s ; - go behind the scenes with MTV: youtube/watch?v=AJKE4-TNFig . #TipEssentials #GDOD #PaperWorkOct21
