T.I. has said that he doesn't seem himself rapping and making albums in ten years like Jay-Z.

The 'Dead and Gone' rapper said that even though the rapping game is still working for the likes of Eminem and Jay-Z who are 37 and 40 respectively - T.I. doesn't think that's the path he would like to continue down.

The rapper has said that he would like to change his career from rapping to continue with his acting ambitions and possibly film-making.

In an interview with Complex magazine, he said: "I'm kicking 30 down this year, so it's about time to start thinking about an exit strategy. I'm not saying this is my last album or the next album is my last album, but I don't see myself rapping for 10 or 20 more years. It can be done, but at the same time, Jay-Z's method is for Jay. I ain't seen nobody else take that model and use it to their advantage.

“If I do rap at Eminem's current age, I'm taking away from all the other opportunities that I have. I want to have an Oscar by then. I want to have made my mark in film as a producer and actor by the time I'm Jay's or Eminem's age."
