"[Prison] makes you angry, makes you angry. And it isn't until you get back to your life you're able to get away from that anger and back to the lessons and appreciation of finer things in your life," said T.I., whose name is Clifford Harris.

Harris has been out of prison since December and he's now on probation for the crime he was convicted of, trying to purchase illegal firearms and silencers in 2007.

"I believe the values I learned form my situation, and the morals I gained from going through my situation. I think prison kind of chipped away at the fabric of those ideas. It's taken me a while now to get back," said Harris.

Harris said what made him so angry was that he felt like he'd learned from his mistake before he ever went to prison.

"I could give you as much detail as words could give you, but nothing can successfully describe it as much as it is being deprived of love ones, family, children and so forth," said Harris.

Harris will have a new album, "King Uncaged" coming out in a few months and he says he recorded 110 new songs since he's been a free man.

"There's a [metaphorical] meaning. Physically emotionally, artistically. Not just uncaged from prison, in every way you can possibly think I'm seeing light in a different light," said Harris.

Harris would not confirm nor deny reports that he's getting married this weekend to his fiancé Tiny, but he said not to believe everything you read online.
