If T.I.'s recent club appearance didn't convince fans that the rapper is taking his recent arrest in stride, then rapper B.o.B's latest comments about his Grand Hustle boss will probably reassure them.

On Tuesday night, the "Airplanes" MC took a seat on "Chelsea Lately" to talk to this year's VMA host, Chelsea Handler, about his fellow ATL native.

Asked how his friend T.I. was doing after being arrested alongside wife Tameka "Tiny" Cottle on drug possession charges, the 21-year-old said he had spoken to his T.I. and "everything is going good."

B.o.B also revealed that the duo have been recording a batch of new tracks. "We've been working in the studio and have a lot of really good songs to look forward to," he said.

Nominated at this year's VMAs for five awards, B.o.B told Handler, "Five is my favorite number."

The rapper also talked about opening up for Eminem and Jay-Z's Home and Home stadium shows, which kicked off last week in Detroit, calling them the highlight of his career.

"It's amazing," he said, jokingly describing the event as a "hip-hop Woodstock." "I think out of everything that I've experienced in my entire career, opening up that night was when it finally set in. I was like, 'Whoa,' "

After a highly successful collaboration with Paramore's Haley Williams on the VMA-nominated "Airplanes," the rapper's manager, Brian "B.Rich" Richardson, recently revealed on Twitter that the MC may be working with a few other music staples, including Drake and 50 Cent.

"By the way B.o.B & Drake met look for something out of them in Jan. Drake is cool as f---!!" he tweeted. "50 cent was there he was cool he came up to B.o.b & said he has his CD in constant rotation & wants to do a song with B.o.B!!" he added.
