T.I. has dropped Alfamega from the Grand Hustle Records family. Alfamega was scandalized earlier this week when TheSmokingGun.com published a report and purported legal documents saying that he was an informant for the Drug Enforcement Administration during a trial on a heroin trafficker. The allegations obviously didn’t sit well with T.I., who himself is going to jail because one of his bodyguards decided to work with the authorities in Tip’s well-publicized 2007 gun-buying sting. In a statement, Tip said all employees are asked to be honest about their history and Alfa never told him about this. T.I. stated, “He essentially deceived us by failing to fully disclose the truth about his past, and there is no place in our organization for dishonest and misleading behavior. As I have always said, you must take responsibility for your own actions. We at Grand Hustle can not support or condone the blaming of others for our own mistakes. I hope and pray to God, bless his savings plans, but I don’t foresee me or my company playing a role in his personal or professional business.” Last summer, Alfa featured Tip on the single “Uh Huh,” which was supposed to be the first record from his debut, I Am Alfamega. The album was due out last winter but has never seen the light of day.
