are any of these good? 'bury me a g' is aight i guess. are those j. holiday songs rap-ish or do they (him?) do r&b as well?

"Buss Yo Head" was a big steet joint for mnoths but I never totally warmed up to it. nice hard simple beat, though. loved their song on the Shawnna album, but those Shareefa tracks were two of my least favorites on the album, decent productions but boring songs.

his top hat is more memorable than the actual song in that Ace Gutta or Ace hood video whatever his name is...which is a Runners track...

it took the video for me to realize that this Ace Hood aka Ace Gutta guy on Khaled's new label isn't the same as the Ace Mack that was on Khaled's "Make It Rain" remix. shit is confusing! I'm really starting to feel like pre-top hat T-Pain was the end of his hot streak.

most endearingly o_O career move in recent T-Pain history is this video with Ukranian pop star Ruslana:

so what was the first appearance of the top hat? 'the boss' video?

we might have to start a rolling autotune thread

yeah, first was "The Boss" or "She Got It," whichever came first.

dunno what is up w/ this one but it's not half bad

mike jones ft. lil wayne, twist and t-pain- cutty buddy

http://www.zshare.net/audio/12023866a0e4089e/

twisa of course

the new saigon has a faux t pain hook on it

2008 rolling non t-pain autotune thread

new single is kind of lame

liiiiiiiiiiiiiink

i like "cash flow" a lot actually

is this new one the one/ wayne?

http://concreteloop.com/2008/06/new-music-from-t-pain

yeah "cash flow" is hot

this is not the one with wayne, I think this may just be a hype track.. anyway it's not bad or anything just not on the level of his other singles.. it'll probably grown on me

i think this is pretty good actually tho i dont think it would hold up to repeated listens like "buy u a drank" or anything

that's probably an unfair criteria for him tho

i like the chorus melody and the autotune sounds good

I know this is only tangenital T-Pain news, but I fucking love the start-stop strings(? choir?) on "Boss Life."

i know this is only tangential t-pain news, but i fucking love t-pain

i'm trying to get drunk before this party somebody gonna have to carry me hoooooOOOOOOoooOOOomme

this song is kinda sad actually

Silver and Gold is great and a very ILX sorta song.
I AINT A GENIUS BUT I JUST MADE SOME GENIUS SHIT
I M MIXING TWO TEQUILAS THAT ARE THE SAME TEQUILA DO U SEE

B+

His '08 will probably look a bit like Lil Jon's 2004, when he reached such a saturation point that all sorts of random artists you'd never expect him to collaborate with grab him for their first single

lol otm

akon was a dick for jacking this!

(ok guess this version is admittedly more of a sketch than a hit but still, way better)

'silver & gold' is good but i just haven't the heart to ride for yet another insecure drunk jam. be happy dude you popular 4real!

that new sophia fresh tune w/ cee-lo kinda sons every moody polow beat ever with its er, dubby poise? dunno if i'm all that into it though

(weird how i can excuse literally everyone but wayne himself for displaying wayneish tendencies - "i'm feeling myself / suicide in the mirror / i'm killing myself" sounds badass on this shit!)

i thought the song at the bet awards that he did a little bit of before his medley was pretty cool

Fuck him and his vocalising. I've had enough of his robo-softcore-porno voice okay? Jesus be a throat infection.

i wanna make challops in this club
in this club
in this club

HA! An (almost completely) accurate ref about my name
for once

whurr is alex in baltimore btw?

some dude

here I am whirrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

t-wayne- can't believe it
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TpEosJnvSUs

confirmed off thr33 ringz. would make a pretty good album track but would flop as a single. maybe wayne's worst usage of autotune ever, but pain's parts are pretty good and low key. beat sounds like "love in this club pt. 3" or something.

there was a listening sesssion
http://www.pyroradio.com/index.cfm/act/news_details/id/152

sept. 30 apparently. hopefully the first single is huge and awesome.

also there's this

T-Pain on T-Pain is Dead

‘T-Pain Is Dead will be full of songs people wouldn’t expect from me. There will be no autotune, there will be rock songs, I’ll be collaborating with Country and Western artists and things like that.’

hopefully the first single is huge and awesome.

not if it's "Silver & Gold"!

I had high hopes after Epiphany that his next album would be some shit to seriously confirm his talent, but his last dozen or so collabs have been so uniformly weak that I dunno now. still rooting for the dude though.

ya i agree re: "silver & gold". one of my favorite songs of the year but it would flop. im sure "snap your fingers" will shoot straight to the top 10 off two weeks worth of itunes sales anyway so i think they'd be retarded not to go with that. i think this has been a decent year for his collabos actually (IM TALKIN CASH FLOW) but as long as 2 pistols or whoever don't show up on this i can't imagine that it'll be any worse than epiphany.

Karaoke feat Dj Khaled - definite highlight, T-Pain add’s this is probably his favourite track says it’s gonna be the last track on the album, strong diss track where he’s rapping about people biting his style, he says the only people that can do it are Lil Wayne and Kanye West , shows respect to Roger Troutman too. The song starts of with him apologising to Akon and his management, he add’s this is due to them not wanting him to air people out.

This is probably a fair move, maybe even a necessary one, for him at this point, but it's funny how a year ago he was saying that only Chris Brown and R. kelly can use style, now it's 2 other people he happens to be working with recently. Stop moving the goalposts, dude! All or none!

xpost - is "Snap Your Fingers" out yet?

nah i don't think it's out yet. i just meant solely off name recognition. i guess "got money" could disprove the theory but i think that would've gone top 10 had they not put 4 carter III other songs on itunes immediately after.

well, at this point I have no idea if "Got Money" is going to rebound up the charts once the video's out and "A Milli" and "Lollipop" have finally died down, or if it really is going to prove to be a weird (relative) flop by 2 sure things. i wouldn't mind NOT hearing it all summer, though.

do you have any idea how it's doing airplay wise? i can't imagine it surging that much wrt digital sales even if radio starts to pick it up. i mean right now it's getting outsold by that awful david banner song while "a milli" continues to stay in the top 35 or so. i think they sacrificed its chart potential by including it in the pre-album release deluge strategy. i mean they had to have known that putting it on itunes right at the height of "lollipop"s success was going to irreparably stunt it.

maybe it's t-pain fatigue though? i think "she got it" would've been a surefire top 10 last year and it barely crept inside the top 30 this year. i think if wayne's still got ultimate name recognition right now. i think if they did a properly timed release for "comfortable" it would be a huge huge hit.

if

I dunno, it's hard to say whether the marketplace is burned out on T-Pain or what. You could say 2 Pistols or Tay Dizm or whoever just doesn't have star quality, but it's not like Flo Rida does either! If anything other rappers autotuning w/o T-Pain has just replaced T-Pain hooks for a lot of more popular rappers at this point, even if Kanye and Wayne are the only one making actually hits like that right now (lol "Rider Pt. 2").

does he run his voice through AutoTune live now? I heard that he did, but he didn't back when I saw him live circa Epiphany.

back in 08 there was this site that i knew how to operate that would send you snippets of songs to your phone as ringtones, but then it died and i never bothered to find another site, so the only four custom ringtones i have on my phone are the choruses of "the boss", "she got it" and "beam me up" and terius' "fast car"

think i'm gonna put thr33 ringz in the car tomorrow...

hope you don't break your skip button getting past all the skits

the intro to t-pain's verse on "the boss" would make a great ringtone imo
