We love when a man does all that he can to protect his woman and thatβs exactly what we saw earlier this week when it came to rapper T.I. and his wife Tiny. And now we know the tea behind it all.
In a newly resurfaced, viral clip posted to social media, the βLive Your Lifeβ artist could be seen performing onstage in Atlanta, rapping along to his popular song β24's.β And while the things were going well initially, the night took a turn when T.I. observed something going off to the side of the stage where his wife Tiny was standing.

Initially, he momentarily stopped rapping to call attention to the moment, asking questions in an attempt to figure out what was happening but he soon went back to finish the song. However, things clearly werenβt resolved as just a few seconds later, the βWhat You Knowβ rapper immediately began running before jumping off the stage entirely and getting in between his wife and an unidentified man.
Once back onstage, T.I. told the crowd:
βThat wasnβt nothing but a minor intermission, you dig what Iβm saying? I just had to get one thing...if you f*ck with this one, Iβmma flip the table. Iβm telling you. So leave her alone, if you see me and I ainβt right there [with her], nigga leave her alone. Iβll flip the motherf*cking table.β
In an interview on Yung Joc Streetz βMorning Takeover,β Tiny spoke on the incident, explaining that her husband is extremely protective of her and jumped in because the man that was bothering her was trying to move her from her spot.
βI just canβt ask for no more, like heβs very protective. You bet not even act like you want to...you better not even act like you trying to say something to me,β Tiny said. βThe man was basically moving us or whatever. And he kind of told them like, βhey, donβt move her. She cool, they with me.β And so the guy was looking like βaight, whatever.β But he was still moving us again and that man [T.I.] jumped off the stage and went crazy.β
She later added, βeverybody was looking at me and I was like βI ainβt did nothing.ββ
Once the clip began to circulate, folks online praised the rapper for making sure his partner stayed safe and looking out.
βHeβs the man, thatβs real loveβ wrote one user on TikTok.
βTI almost caught someone lacking for messing with wife Tiny during concert performance,β said another.
βThat man got superpowers the way he jumped off the stage,β one other user joked.
Added another, βTip has never played about Tiny babyβ¦ask Floyd.β
