JUST ANNOUNCED: T.I. Presents: The Hustle Gang Tour

 

Asheville, N.C. – Three time Grammy Award winning rapper, songwriter, and producer T.I. comes to the ExploreAsheville.com Arena with T.I. Presents: The Hustle Gang Tour on Tuesday, May 2 at 8:00 p.m. Tickets go on sale Thursday, March 16, at 10:00 a.m. at the U.S. Cellular Center box office, online at Ticketmaster.com, and by phone at 800-745-3000.

Adult tickets are $50.00 plus applicable fees. Student tickets are available with college ID for $30.00 plus applicable fees. This show is General Admission; ticket prices go up by $5.00 day of show. The Grand Hustle Package is available and will include priority entry and seating, exclusive backstage tour, preshow Green Room access and photo opportunity with T.I., collectible laminate autographed by T.I., exclusive backstage merch pack, and an opportunity to preview to new/unreleased music by T.I. The Hustle Package is also available and will include priority entry, tour poster autographed by T.I., and an exclusive Hustle merch pack.

Never one to march behind anyone else, T.I. has crafted a standard-setting career that fixes his status in the music industry as a hip-hop icon. “Doing music the way I’ve always done it would only have me receive the same amount of success I’ve had,” says T.I. “I firmly believe that to get something you’ve never had, you must be willing to do something you’ve never done. So to be more successful, I needed to open myself up to other perspectives.”

And the King of the South is doing just that as he ramps up the next bar-raising phase in his storied career with Paperwork. The rapper’s ninth album is the first under the new alliance between T.I.’s Grand Hustle label and Columbia Records.

Coming off their winning collaboration on Robin Thicke’s international smash “Blurred Lines,” T.I. tapped Pharrell Williams as executive producer of Paperwork. “You must find ways to reinvent yourself in order to remain relevant,” says an re-energized T.I. “And who better to help me than someone as passionate and talented as Pharrell? He found a way to bring a colorful, left-field approach to my blue-collar celebrity. Between his wings and my anchor, we balance each other out. That duality is what makes this project unique.”

T.I. is a published author (“Power & Beauty,” Trouble & Triumph”), and has racked up notable acting credits, including films “Identity Thief,” “Takers,” “American Gangster,” “Get Hard,” and “ATL” plus a guest-starring role in the Showtime series “House of Lies.” The business entrepreneur and community service advocate also stars in VH1’s “T.I. & Tiny: The Family Hustle.” Now in its third season, the high-rated unscripted series features his wife Tameka “Tiny” Cottle and their blended family of six children.

But music remains at the core of T.I.’s various pursuits; the rapper says he and Pharrell recorded more than 200 songs during the Paperwork process. “When I first sat down with Pharrell, he told me to think ‘out of the stratosphere,’ recalls T.I. “What solidifies the resulting Paperwork is a unique blend of refreshing yet timeless material. As Pharrell would put it, we’re trying to rewrite history.”

HARLEM GLOBETROTTERS BRING NEW TOUR TO Asheville ON FRIDAY, MARCH 31 ON THE HEELS OF SETTING NINE GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ RECORDS

Tickets are on sale now to see Globetrotters at US Cellular Center

(ATLANTA, Nov. 17, 2016) – As the Harlem Globetrotters prepare to bring their 2017 World Tour to the US Cellular Center in Asheville on Friday, March 31, the iconic team took a timeout for Guinness World Records Day. Only one year after setting seven official Guinness World Records titles, the Globetrotters broke a single-day total of nine records this year, including the longest basketball hook-shot.

Tickets to the see the Globetrotters in Asheville start at $21.50 and are officially on sale now at harlemglobetrotters.com or the US Cellular Center box office. (Additional fees may apply).

The records were broken at the AT&T Center, home of the San Antonio Spurs, during the 12th annual Guinness World Records Day, a global celebration of record breaking launched to celebrate the day the Guinness World Records book sold its 100 millionth copy.  Since 2000, the Globetrotters now own 15 current Guinness World Records.

“We are the original trick shot artists, so it is great to reclaim our records and reestablish our dominance,” said Harlem Globetrotters star Big Easy Lofton.  “We have been training hard so to have a day where we push the limits and try some fun yet challenging shots, is pretty cool. I mean, how many people can say they’re a Guinness World Records title holder? We can’t wait to put smiles on people’s faces as we demonstrate our skills and talents on the upcoming world tour.”

Among the nine Guinness World Records titles which were set by the Globetrotters, four of them reclaimed records that were originally held by the team and then broken by Dude Perfect. The Globetrotters reclaimed the records of longest basketball hook shot, longest basketball shot blindfolded, most basketball 3-pointers made by a pair in one minute, and longest blindfolded basketball hook shot.

Here’s a full look at the records set by the Globetrotters:

  • Longest basketball hook shot – Big Easy Lofton (72 feet, 6.25 inches)
  • Longest basketball shot blindfolded – Ant Atkinson (73 feet, 10 inches)
  • Most basketball 3-pointers in one minute (single ball) – Ant Atkinson and Cheese Chisholm (10 each)
  • Farthest basketball shot made while sitting on the court – Thunder Law (58 feet, 9.25 inches)
  • Most bounced basketball 3-pointers in one minute – Zeus McClurkin (5)
  • Most basketball 3-pointers made by a pair in one minute – Ant Atkinson and Cheese Chisholm (22 each)
  • Farthest basketball shot under-one-leg – Thunder Law (52 feet, 5.5 inches)
  • Longest blindfolded basketball hook shot – Big Easy Lofton (58 feet, 2.5 inches)
  • Most basketball slam dunks in one minute (individual) – Zeus McClurkin (16)

The Globetrotters will tip off their 2017 World Tour on Dec. 26 and will play in over 250 North American markets as well as 30 countries worldwide. Tickets are now available at harlemglobetrotters.com.

The Harlem Globetrotters® are legendary worldwide, synonymous with one-of-a-kind family entertainment and great basketball skills for the past 90 years. Throughout their history, the Original Harlem Globetrotters have showcased their iconic talents in 122 countries and territories on six continents, often breaking down cultural and societal barriers while providing fans with their first-ever basketball experience. Proud inductees of the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, the Globetrotters have entertained hundreds of millions of fans – among them popes, kings, queens, and presidents – over nine thrilling decades.
