When we spotted T.I. on the red carpet at the 2014 Tony Awards at Radio City Music Hall, little did we know that he was about to partake in the show’s first Hip-Hop event.
Hugh Jackman invited LL Cool J and T.I. to perform “Music Man” with him. Questlove created the track’s beat.

We spoke with T.I. on the red carpet exclusively.
What brings you out to the Tony’s?
Just bringing my daughter to see the best actors and actresses at work. And just to observe thespian-ism at its finest and see what kind of surprises may take place.
Do you hope to do theater one day?
Well you know I hope to do anything that could elevate me and contribute to my evolution as an actor who knows what the future may hold?
A Tupac inspired play “Holler If Ya Hear Me” is coming to Broadway. Do you have any reflections?
I heard. I think that it’s awesome that his life is being depicted on Broadway, man! Just that our culture is being considered and acknowledged is phenomenal.
