The album, which was released September 30, 2008, was titled "Paper Trail", a reference to the method he used in writing the materials. Unlike his previous projects, T.I. was back to the traditional pen and paper instead of technology generated sound from studio in the six songs he had written. Like its predecessor, "Paper Trail" debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, selling 568,000 copies in its first week, becoming T.I.'s highest debut sales at that time.
