Rapper T.I. was formally sentenced to a year and a day in prison today. T.I. was arrested in October of 2007 on a felony weapons charge. T.I. is expected to go to jail voluntarily within six to eight weeks but won’t make it their before May 19 due to performance obligations. However, T.I. very much impressed the court with his attitude and action turnaround since the arrest. The rapper has met and helped several humanitarian causes in Atlanta.

Right now T.I. is has agreed to a rather rigirous (but fair) plea deal. According to MTV.com, T.I. must complete 1,000 hours of community service before sentencing, pay a $100,000 fine and agree to complete another 500 hours of community service. In addition, he will be subjected to an audit of his finances, drug counseling, DNA testing and random searches of his property, and he will not be able to own firearms. He will also be under home confinement after his release under the same pre-trial conditions, which included a curfew, permission-only travel and a court-appointed supervisor.
Check out his MTV special, “T.I.’s Road to Redemption: The Reckoning,” this Tuesday at 9 p.m. ET/PT on MTV.
