The Atlanta Falcons debuted a theme song featuring Rotimi last week.
The track called “Rise Up” wasn’t universally loved.
One of the most obvious reasons is that Rotimi is from New Jersey.
T.I. responded to the song on Instagram writing, “Atlanta Falcons. Atlanta Falcons. Atlanta Falcons listen, who in the fk did you call, bro? I ain’t got no problem with Rotimi. Rotimi is a good cat, man. I fk with Rotimi. He a brother, he’s an ally. He’s a brother and we f**k with him.”
He continued, “We have so much culture, so much talent in the city, man. So many hardcore, die-hard Falcon fans that happen to be A-list talent in the city. I know Quavo would’ve did it. I know 2 Chainz would’ve did it. I know Killer Mike would’ve did it. I mean, I would’ve did it. I know Jeezy would’ve did it. Bruh, who approved that? Who’s sitting in these meetings.”
T.I. also posted a Falcons highlight video on Instagram featuring his Top Back Remix with Jeezy.
Ludacris co-signed in the comments saying, “Dats Powerful.”
