Guest kingdok Posted February 17, 2002 Share Posted February 17, 2002 I've been a fan of TIP Records for a long time, but have never been totally clear if it's pronounced like "TIP" as in the tip of an iceberg, or (phonetically) "Tee-eye-Pee" like an abbreviation for The Infinity Project. Which is correct? The reason I ask is because I've heard both used, but packaging seems to imply that it's one syllable, not three. "Let it rip with TIP." "Top of the TIPs" etc. When TIP.World started up I figured "Tee-Eye-Pee dot World" was how you said it. But I've heard people say "Tip World" and "Tip dot World." How do YOU say them?

Guest kadafi Posted February 17, 2002 Share Posted February 17, 2002 I just say or 'tipworld' or simply 'tee-aai-pee' without the 'world'..... doesn't matter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Raider Posted February 17, 2002 Share Posted February 17, 2002 I've never said Tee Eye Pee, always just said tipworld. Sounds better too...! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest kingdok Posted February 17, 2002 Share Posted February 17, 2002 See, this is where it would be handy to have feedback from actual label founders/artists. Have any of those guys done interviews -- recorded interviews? I think there IS a correct way to say it, and that it does, in fact, matter.

Guest green mouse Posted February 18, 2002 Share Posted February 18, 2002 if you check the interviews on Thumpradio, (the url is sth like thump-radio.com or whatever) probably they have recorded (i.e. in real audio) interviews with someone from TIP...and you'll hear how it is pronounced....i don't have the time to do it now, so if anyone is interested, give it a try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
