T.I. went off on comic Lauren Knight during her open night show in Atlanta earlier this week after Knight joked about all of the sexual assault allegations Tip and his wife Tiny racked up last year.
When she accused him of calling her a "bitch" during his rant he said this:
"Give me video where I called you a b*tch, I'll give you a million dollars," he yelled
Shortly after the video of Tip's attack (he bear-hugged her on stage and grabbed her mic) went viral, Knight posted a video in which he very much calls her a "bitch.
But instead of giving her the million dollars he promised, Tip has given her many words.
Today on IG, he posted a video in which he puts his arm around a skeptical Knight and tells her he's here to "protect and correct" her
