Killer Mike, T.I. reopening historic Bankhead Seafood this weekend

A historic Atlanta seafood restaurant is back in business.

Bankhead Seafood , a more than 50-year-old Atlanta fixture, announced it was closing in January 2018. But rappers Mike “Killer Mike” Render and Clifford “T.I.” Harris weren’t ready to let it shut down for good.
