Billboard Chart topper and Grammy Award winning rapper T.I. will perform at the Kansas State Fair, Saturday, Sept. 17.

Born in Atlanta, T.I. started rapping at the age of 9, and never looked back. Signed to a record label at just 16 years old, T.I. has kept the hits coming for 26 years. Some of his top songs include: “Live Your Life” featuring Rihanna, “Bring Em Out,” “Whatever You Like,” “Rubber Band Man,” and “Swagga Like Us” featuring Jay-Z, Kanye West, and Lil Wayne.

“T.I. is an incredible artist, with record sales and awards to prove it,” said Bryan Schulz, Kansas State Fair General Manager. “He’s sure to thrill fans at the Fair!” 

Opening for T.I. will be another legend of rap, Chingy. His major hit “Right Thurr” kicked off his career in 2003, with subsequent hits such as “Holidae In,” “I Like That,” and “Pullin’ Me Back.”
