T.I. Ordered to Cough Up More Money

Biggie said it best: Mo' Money, Mo' Problems. An Atlanta judge has ordered T.I. to cough up more child support to the mother of his two oldest sons, LaShon Dixon, as part of Tuesday's ruling. Superior Court Judge Bensonetta Tipton Lane ordered the multi-platinum selling rapper to increase his child support payment from $2,000 to $3,000 a month. On the bright side, the rapper was awarded joint custody of the 7 and 8-year-old boys.

According to Dixon's lawyer Randy Kessler, Dixon appreciates the support, but is a bit disappointed with the amount of the increase considering T.I.'s financial status. "Every little bit helps," Kessler said. "She was just getting by with the children, while they lived a different life with their father. It can't be complete opposites on the other side."
