That exact scenario just happened to Drew Taggart from The Chainsmokers last night, as the duo and T.I. both uploaded videos regarding the situation, both of them laughing it off. “T.I. just literally punched me in the face,” Taggart said. “We were on a vibe, and I gave him a kiss on the cheek, and he totally punched me in the face.
