T.I., TINY, AND SON, KING HARRIS, ARGUE OVER SILVER SPOON CHILDHOOD
Being born as the child of a celebrity undoubtedly comes with many advantages. Some might even argue that these privileged children are raised with a “silver spoon” in their mouths. A recent livestreamed video featuring veteran rapper T.I., his wife Tiny, and their son, King Harris, showed a heated argument between the group over King’s “silver spoon” childhood.
A longer version of King, TI, and Tiny’s argument. He called his parents liars, called his mother drunk, then tried to buck on his father. I don’t know of any other celebrity kids who are doing this so something is wrong in this family. pic.twitter.com/nYkjfOetUY

Let’s set the scene.
The Harris family were all in attendance having a good time watching the Atlanta Falcons’ divisional match up against the New Orleans Saints. T.I and his 19-year-old son began arguing over King’s upbringing and the privileges that it has afforded him.
In the video, the “Whatever You Like,” rapper questions King about his experience with living in poor conditions such as roach-infested homes.
“King, have you ever woke up with a roach on your face,” the father-of-seven can be heard in the clip asking his son.
The crowd begins to mock the young Harris saying that he grew up with a “silver spoon”.
King, in an attempt to prove his “street cred,” offered to show his parents, and the others in the room, a potential drug den that he regularly visits.
“Do y’all wanna go to the bando in my neighborhood,” he asked the crowd. Then, turned to his father, accusing him of lying in an attempt to bolster his own public image.
“To make him look better, he say sh*t that he know not true,” King said. “Silver spoon? I ain’t never ate with that a day in my life.”
King’s mother, Tiny Harris, stepped in, telling the camera that her son did indeed have a “silver spoon.”
The 48-year-old explained that her son only wanted to go to his grandmother’s, where he claims his parents left him regularly, because she let him “suck a pacifier until he was 12.”
As you can image, things escalated from this point, tremendously.
The aspiring rapper screamed at his mother saying, “Why y’all doing that to me? Y’all know I stand on business.”
With all the screaming and yelling, T.I. attempted to calm his son, telling him that, he was “embarrassing yourself and the family, n*gga.”
At this point, the irate teen appeared to get physical with his father and the Atlanta-native yelled, “Boy, you can’t do nothing with me! Ain’t sh*t you can do with me!”
After the apparent altercation, the video ended and King posted the following on Instagram in a now deleted post:
“I Stand on. BUSINESS DONT GIVE A F*@# WHO U ARE … IDGAF WHO U ARE MF CANT PLAY WIT ME N MY FACE NOT GOIN FOR DA IM A GROWN A$$ MAN NOW.”
He continued, “If ima mistake say dat stop making da world think u fw me when u DONT. N*gga be faking a image for da internet &. It AINT Me.”
It seems, as in cases like this, somethings are better left said behind closed doors.
