King Harris, son of T.I. and Tiny Harris, graduated high school. The young musician posted his accomplishment on Instagram this weekend and addressed naysayers who said he didn’t graduate school.
King Harris was accused of dropping out of school due to his career success. King denied such charges, which were unfounded.
King requested homeschooling three years ago. “I need my job to start now because if it don’t… I’ll be scrambling to achieve it later,” King stated on T.I. and Tiny: Friends and Family Hustle to justify his desire to be homeschooled. T.I. disapproved.
“You don’t say when your career starts,” the celebrity father warned his son during the episode. “You ain’t put in the work,” T.I. said. Child! King left the room in a rage about his father’s opinion. Tiny Harris supported King homeschooling. But, T.I.
“T.I. is right,” a fan said. “You gotta go through it to ‘get to it’,” the fan said. “And one must ‘grow through it.’ Levels exist. No sudden success!”
Another fan added, “I’m not against homeschooling but I agree with Tip about the coddling. He wants to homeschool to play music. What if homeschooling hinders his music? Will he cry his way out again? Nah.”
King completed his general education at regular schools. After graduating, he pursues rapping.
