T.I. has given his first on-camera interview since completing his jail sentence.

The Atlanta rapper revealed more details about his forthcoming album in the interview, posted on his TrapMuzik blog.

"I'm happy to be home," he said. "I feel better than I've ever felt. I learned a lot, grew a lot. Now, I think it's time to put all that to good use. I want to maintain the level of success I've been fortunate enough to do over and over again over the years. This album is different in many ways. I think that Paper Trail was a lot more about thoughts; this is more about feelings. This is significantly more aggressive, or at least at this period in production. Who knows? I can do ten love songs tomorrow and change the direction. At this point, right now, it's going hard. It's going hard like classic T.I."

The first single from his album is set to be 'I'm Back', and the yet-to-be-titled album is currently scheduled for release on August 24.
