Clifford “T.I.” Harris graces the all-new July/August 2010 issue of XXL Magazine which hits newsstands on July 6th. He also talks snitching rumors and the ‘G-Code’ in his cover story:

Most muthaf—as catch cases and get time. My n—a, you wasn’t doing sh– when you was out here, so wasn’t no reason for them to keep you out here. Please understand the G code that I learned from, if you speak out your mouth that a muthaf—a is telling on somebody and you can’t come with indisputable, irrefutable facts to support that statement, that makes you the sucker,” T.I. said. “You are now in violation of the G code. And there ain’t nobody, nowhere in naan jail sayin’ I was on they paperwork.” -MTV
