T-Pain

However, more "T-Pain Featuring" please

^^^esta

don't really understand that sentiment given the quality of most of the guest spots on Thr33 Ringz

is t-pain the animal collective of r&b?

Sentiment is more just that T-Pain songs are usually good, whereas songs feat. t-pain are usually bad. Not meant to comment on guest spot quality.

don't fully agree, but he's definitely more consistent as a solo artist than as a for-hire hitmaker

Although "Never thought I'd be on a boat" is just about the only funny line in "I'm On a Boat"

omfg

i hope i was joking but i probably wasn't >:(

remember the Epiphany rickroll?

Is panda bear the t-pain of animal collective?

aaaanyway, i love thr33 ringz a lot and i think shipley is tripping talking about what he does w/ his guests on the album. i mean the point of them is to be integrated into his "circus" right? none of the guests are outstanding (though i think many like ciara and chris brown are very good) but they don't have to be

Two reasons why I love T-Pain in 2009:

Sophia Fresh's album is gonna be craaaaaaaaazzzzzzzyyyyyyyyyy

the "blame it" video is hysterical

Although "Never thought I'd be on a boat" is just about the only funny line in "I'm On a Boat"

I thought that at first but "never thought I'd see the day when a big boat comin' my way" is my favorite part now

yeah, i'm not saying the guests were really a problem on the album (Luda and CB and Kanye and lol Khaled are great on it and "Reality Show" is my favorite song), i just generally prefer the stuff with no guests on the first 2 albums.

the whole HIV bit on Epiphany is a bit shit.

thought you were not fully agreeing that t-pain is the animal collective of r&b

well the key difference there is that I've actually heard T-Pain's music

that's kinda bullshit though

he talking about "i'm on a boat"?

i assume so, although "D.O.A." is nominated too

i hope blame it wins -- did they announce all the r&b/hip-hop awards already?

don't they show those?

some of them they announce beforehand -- 'relapse' won hip hop album

lol

i still think one of the coolest moments of T-Pain's career was having 2 songs in this category where he was the rap part on one song and the sung part on the other

ha, that's true

shawty snap

T-Pain's Facebook tattoo > Gucci's face tattoo

add more >>>>>>>>>>>>>>s

the >>>>>s go between everything else and those two things

Does anyone know the best source for the finger snap sample T-Pain et al uses in their music? Is it a recent sample pack or is it some old school drum machine bit?

sun is out today and i'm blasting "shawty" <3 t-pain

http://www.thesuperficial.com/t-pain-frank-ocean-homophobia-jay-z-kanye-02-2014

seems like a good dude overall

the jay-z and kanye part of that doesn't scan to me but i'm sure he's right as it pertains to a bunch of other rappers

nonetheless t-pain is a true national treasure

yeah, that part was pretty nonsensical considering Frank is on both Yeezus and MCHG (and "Oceans" is supposedly a WTT outtake but still, Jay put it on his new record).

i kinda get the impression that Frank is pointedly only collaborating with the biggest rappers out and the ones in his crew. he's the only new R&B singer in the last few years with a gold album, i'm sure if he wanted to hit the Trey Songz hook singer circuit there'd be more rappers saying yes than no to the offer to collaborate.

the bit from the (same?) recent interview about T-Pain getting invited to 808s & Heartbreak sessions and then getting mocked by Kanye for his ideas was crazy. i can't believe what it would take for a lyric or melody to be considered not good enough for that sloppy-ass album.

ok i'm posting this here too

so good

i love this

national treasure OTM
so glad i'm listening to this right now

The haters have made him very sad

My opinion of this article is coloured by the fact that the writer seems to think that Drake picture was deep and not hilarious.

When he says this, once again laughing, I think instantly about the photograph on the cover of Drake’s “Take Care,” which shows the artist sitting glumly in front of a golden goblet, looking painfully aware of how little solace his riches can bring him in his darkest moments.

T-Pain has always been like that, i called him "sad T-Panda" 6 years ago: Rolling R&B Thread 2007

his new album, titled “Stoicville: The Phoenix”

omg
