T.I. Says He Is Innocent

Rapper T.I. expressed confidence he would not be convicted of federal weapons charges, speaking publicly for the first time since his arrest in a video posted on a hip-hop Web site.

In the short video posted on Streetcred.com, T.I., who's real name is Clifford Harris Jr., said people should not believe everything reported in the news.

"I look forward to being exonerated on all charges," Harris said in the video. "And I say that with the utmost sincerity."

Harris thanked his fans and lawyers. He also thanked the judge in his case for allowing him to be on house arrest.

Harris also said in the video that he is using his free time to read, write and work on a new album.

Harris was arrested Oct. 13 in a midtown Atlanta parking lot just blocks from the BET Hip-Hop Awards, which he was to headline later that night. Federal authorities say the 27-year-old rapper tried to buy machine guns and silencers. He was released on bond Oct. 26.
