Thank you all for watching this video! I appreciate the feedback and support ❤️. BTW I didn’t say this in my video but I honestly think T-Pain should be in the same position as DJ Khaled is today. He reps Florida and he is actually a talented producer, DJ, singer, and writer. The industry failed TPain.
We really miss u, Don’t nobody and I mean NOBODY break stuff down da way u do on here, that’s why I might watch other bloggers but don’t believe it until u show receipts. U are da best blogger on here hands down.
@@NOLA.licioussss Thank you for supporting my channel! I appreciate you
Big factsss to both comments 💕
10000 %
Can you please do more music documentaries on artists who's no longer popular
Really love how you break it down and educate those who did not know exactly how their music careers ended
Sounds like jealousy to me. He literally is a legend and does not get enough credit.
Exactly!
Yeah that’s what I sinced
Right and he did FREE shit and ppl cant look out???? Smh
This tho 💯
Thats the same thing i thought ...Jayz was just being an asshole
And people still act like Jay-Z isn't shady AF...he has been shady his entire career, but he gets a pass every time...people are blind sheep.
I don’t like Jay Z. He always starting with someone
Preach!!
Right! I like what he became and is now but he was a hater for a long time! He didnt have the natural star power or charisma alot of his peers do, his lyricism is his strongest trait.
Exactly
I know so much that he and Bey have done to ruin careers behind the scenes. They both are evil and wicked af.
Didn’t realize people disliked him like this. He seems like a genuinely nice guy who is here to have a good time.
its jealousy...
It’s crazy because he is one of my favorite artists - I loooove him!
Right . He seems mad cool.
No, this is jealous at its finest because they don’t sound good with autotune or cannot rap along with autotune and rather than admit that it is something that they can’t touch people with in the music industry will shit on it. Like sold them when you find media artist that are actually better than auto tune to hate auto tunes like Christina Aguilera is a rarity and even her type of singing has died out as far as what she does on the track so I could see her hating on another niche thing back to popularity away from it. The rap industry is very egotistically that is what I’ve learned from all the documentaries and interviews.🙄
And for reasons I cannot understand because 40% of the people in the rap industry right now are one hit wonders, the other 40% all sound like everyone else in this current Wave, none of them really stand out, and the remaining 20% is held by people who will make it to the next wave but then that number will be slashed by a third as to the ones that have longevity beyond that.🤷🏾♀️ i’ll cells and collect your bag because your time in the spotlight is very very limited. Social media can extend that if you pull a lot of shenanigans but then you have to live with those shenanigans.
All haters 🤬
Usher should apologise to him. People need to take accountability for how they make others feel with their words.
Yes but if you notice usher is getting his karma trust me he’s gonna get his
I agree, that wasn't fair for him to do too T-Pain... totally uncalled for, smh
PLEASE! with no “ But “ either!!
Exactly!!! It’s honestly sad 😞
Usher shouldn’t be the only one to apologize to TPain.
So the downfall of his career was off of pure jealousy. For this man to have 17 songs spinning simultaneously on radio means he was a musical genius. T-Pain deserves all his accolades. It just goes to show that you can't destroy talent. Thank you for this documentary.
He should’ve never done free features when he was hot at that time
Right!!
Yea that’s how it was in the late 2000s you couldn’t listen to the radio for 10 minutes without hearing Tpain or lil Wayne
Yup they where jealous T-Pain lyrics was gooooooood love him
It's a shame because he's that dude we love his music he cared to much!!
So the problem wasn’t Auto-Tune, seen as Future was embraced for years after they sabotaged T-Pains career. Their issue was T-Pain specifically being too successful for their liking. Industry men are cruel. They were jealous of Him.. simple. I’m glad he’s still thriving and making music!
Tbh tpain music was better than future smh
Yep, jay z is ugly inside and out PERIODT
@@shaniquehairston1410 Future makes noise not music🤷🏽♀️
Preach
t-pain walked so future could run
Now let me get this straight...they said he messed up music because he used auto tune but they still using it and working with other artists that use it. He helped all these people make hits and they turn on him because of something Jay Z said. That's a slap in the face. They are all a bunch of followers. They were really just jealous because he had so many hits circulating at one time...crazy.
Lessons learned here:
Don’t do ANYONE a favor for free, people are not your friends.
They hate cuz they want to do what you do.
The industry turns on everyone at some point, you have to be solid within yourself.
In the industry I'd assume like any other workplace is full of coworkers. Some envious and others not with a large portion of em being out for self.
This message and its entirety is definitely for life in general, always being available and free is not the way because it will never be reciprocated 💕💕
@@sexyalleycat ever! He messed up doing that. Should have made them pay!
@@rahbeeuh yup!
@@hannahzeplin2794 factsss boo, I use to be this way, design my friends apartment and they never mention payment and I did it for free and my gas for free until I realized all the struggle and everyone is living their best life, no ma'am.
Usher and others are huge hypocrites for dragging him for using auto tune, then following suit and doing the same when it financially benefited them!
Exactly!!
Exactly, turned around and made OMG
@@willardweston8984 nnm Zaza
Preach!
@@willardweston8984 Jesus he never used it will.I.am was the one who said it
RCA will literally hold an artist and sabotage their entire career JUST so another label won’t prosper off of them.
Hence, Normani.

They did Tinashe really dirty.
@@jojomargaux9295 YEP‼️‼️‼️
@@EasyBreezie hey Pooh 💋 hru
My cousin Khalid is with RCA..and I pray that doesn't happen to him.
It's like a bad toxic relationship
They hate you when you're at the top, to the point where you can lose your way and give up.
The truth of it all is, they were hating, because they saw themselves losing, and T-Pain, being the nice and real person that he is, took the fall because his buddies were suffering for what he felt was "his fault," which gave him his "sabotage of success."
The Industry fell into the herd mentality, and the algorhythm of music business knew that he was not worth showing anymore.
If only he showed more arrogance, and said "That ain't my fault" he would have still been up there right now.
That's why Jay-Z is still relevant to this day, he made the persona that he is "the shit" when we all knew he got bodied before.
Thats legit 💯
Facts being genuine and humble will slow down material success and make you take the long route…that’s why so many sellout early
Mmhmm, sigh..
That’s a really great synopsis lol. Literally the conclusion I came to right before I started reading comments
Not only that because he’s married to bey he feel like he can act like that too
usher had no right to blame T-Pain for his inability to keep up with the evolution of music. Usher was just looking for somebody to blame for his own decline.
I agree and then he spins around and uses autotune like sir wtf😐🤨
Well said!!! That's how I look at it...he's ass just couldn't keep up with the evolution of music at that moment.
@@LightsCameraAshley ummm seriously🤔 didn't he pass his "condition" to other women🤨 he was an ass acting like a bitter bitch🤦🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
Usher used auto tune in OMG
@Ninna Symone not flaring up 🤣🤣🤣
T pain literally wrote and sung my whole childhood and adolescence anthems
Facts!
I mean literally!
Speak on it
YES!
Same!!! 😁😁
If you inspired Kayne and was about to make a song with Michael, you made it. Don't listen to what haters say when kings love you!
Yes your right
This!!
Fax
Right! What a positive message that all can take away from. We may not be T-Pain, inspired Kanye or was about to make a song with Michael; but we’re all great in our own right and all have something that someone values. People hate just to hate and when you’re hated on, you no different than the greats, celebs or even Jesus! Fokes hated on Jesus every single day. So keep your head up! Stay positive. Stay focused. And know that you too, are great! Enjoy y’all day everyone! ♥️
Kanye? Who is Kayne?
Honestly I been through with Jay-Z after the way he reused to accept Lil mamas apology over that corny a** New York song! And I never cared for Usher either. Thank Goodness T-Pain has found his lane and is thriving. He has such a good personality and spirit. Those clowns were just hating on a artist selling better than them.
Yes I agree with you why did he have to do him like that on stage. Jz is still arrogant and not in a good way. People are humans first before then Artist and T pain as a human. I’m just glad he didn’t start depending on drugs because that could’ve ended badly for him
That’s because Lil mama was really exposing his character and he didn’t like that
I never realized T-Pain had so many hits until he came to perform at my Homecoming. My friends and I was literally singing every song, word for word.
Damn! I know yall had fun!!😍😍
I went to his concert back '09 and it is still the best concert I've been to till this day. He's an amazing artist
@@Kayla-kd8ov my alma mater had a T-Pain concert in 2018. It was lit. He sung, danced and i never realized how many hits he had as well.
Right 😭
You are gorgeous Kyra!
The fact that MJ wanted to collaborate w T-Pain speaks volumes! MJ only worked w the best in the industry.T-pain is a singer, songwriter, producer, rapper and musical genius who influenced a new generation of artist and gets no credit.Give this man his flowers 🌹
Periodt!!!
Rappa ternt sanga
True
I believe that's why the other artists didn't want him in the game anymore
Exactly!
I hope he watches this and reads the comments as a reminder of how much of an impact he has in our lives.
Me too I hope he knows how his music is still very much loved and influences music today
👌🏽🤟🏽
#BigFacts
Absolutely
Nelly: turns down "Low" cause it was too "corny"....
Also Nelly: makes "Just a Dream"
Lololol
🤦🤦😂😂 facts
I mean it was corny because it was too obvious 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Low sounds like a Nelly song.
They were all just JEALOUS of Tpain’s talent.
Janet Guy@ True Talk 💯. T-Pain's career was on 🔥. He has the ability to write songs at an amazing pace. He is a special artist. I hate this CANCEL CULTURE!! So glad he came back Strong.💜
I bet
Yeah they are soo disgusting towards him because of his talent.
T-pain is so talented. He won masked singer using his REAL voice.
Right best show ever, I have watched it three times over. Loved him as the monster
Period
lolz .. how can this be talent!? the industry is corrupted even more now because of guys like these that its getting laughed upon.
I he was Amazing
😊
Can’t believe how many haters are in the industry. As a 2000s kid, if t pain was in a song. It was a banger. That’s all you knew about t pain
Period.!
Absolutely!!
PERIOD!!!
Maneee tpain was my favorite rapper as a kid and I went to his concert 🔥
@@cosmicreadingswithlee4945 lucky
This the same thing they did to Nicki
When Nicki said there is no friend in the industry. This is it. If this man has died, everyone would have come out showing fake love. SMH 🤦♀️
Shout out to Chris Brown and Neyo for being real and remaining by his side.
🙌🏾🙌🏾 damn right
💯
Yesss and Lil Wayne.
They definitely ALL fake.....how r 3 colorist real????

The crazy thing is, TPain can SANGGGG!! He's insanely talented.
Yes he can!!! 🖤
Yes he is talented!!!
For real he can!
Yes but Akon was RIGHT though.
Everyone at that time 2007-2010 was doing edm and dance music. Kelly Rolland, Neyo, Jlo, Rihanna, Nicki Minaj Chris brown etc. T pain was a big name and should have crossed over 🤷🏾♂️
Yes exactly!! He can sing and write beautifully. And the way he used auto tune was genius. He’s amazing.
T pain is such a legend. His songs made my childhood.
💯💯...I can remember dancing with my kids to his songs. They were so little, bring back so many memories.
I've never been the biggest T-Pain fan. But I had no idea he went through all this. This video literally had my eyes watering.
Usher woke this man out of his sleep and td him that he PERSONALLY, ruined the music industry. If that's not jealousy, then I don't know what is.
It’s usher what tf was he jealous about 😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 DUMMY
Usher was never ahead of a tendance by himself. He always had a mentor like LA Reid or Diddy to help him make good music. TPAin bring something new by himself
@@springa1930 💯💯💯
Very sad and disappointing from Usher...I mean this is USHER we're talking about!
Exactly smh
T-pain didn't fuck up music!
He made changes that even I embraced.
They just didn't want to be happy for him.
Exactly
@Nutbox Deliverer well damn☠️🤣
He did f"*k up music
@Nutbox Deliverer Pardna who are you to tell me what I should say?
@@crews-lj3ph HOW?
The story about T- Pain, MJ, and Usher’s collab getting scrapped is the perfect example as to why moving in silence is so important.The leak was definitely sabotage
Exactly
Sabotage towards MJ for sure!!! The music industry didn’t want MJ to come back have hits and be more popular and influential to a new generation of fans…. Let’s not forget if that song would’ve came out DAMNNNN this would’ve been the ultime trio R&B/ hip hop/ pop 3kings 🔥
YEP!
Low key I think the real reason Usher said T'Pain "ruined music..." is because he blamed Pain/His camp for RUINING his chance to work with MJ. Ushers comment was passive aggressive.
@@iLoveLeatherNYC I agree, I believe in the video T-Pain admitted the leak was a result of someone in his camp. Usher more than likely was devastated by the missed opportunity that would’ve been legendary with MJ. I think T-Pain moved on from it but Usher harbored that anger towards him and that’s why he said what he said on that flight.
Can we please take a moment to spotlight Empressive's documentary videos! Honestly, your documentaries could/should compete with "Behind the music" and "Unsung". So insightful, so deep diving, so REAL!
Tpain’s music is timeless you can put it on now and the whole crowd would get hype! I’m glad people are starting to appreciate him.
Hell yeah! I’m bout to clean my room & play Tpain! Give that man his full arrangement of flowers 💐 Now!!! I’m sprung!!
I agree. 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
We OG's always appreciated TPain
Jealousy is one hell of a drug . They only love & support you when you’re on top & even then they’ll hate you when you doing better than them.. but you know Sometimes you gotta take a hit and fall down because you will get back up! & when you do get back up you’ll be able to think better and analyze the situations, things and people around you . I’m so happy that Tpain is back doing what he loves and don’t have to deal with those evil industry people.
Agreed
Amen 👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾

@@marie-wz4bg Exactly JayZ is a great business man I never loved him as a rapper. He is definitely not a top rapper. I think some mainstream rappers are more entertaining than him. If it wasn’t for Beyoncé he probably would have stayed in retirement bc ppl are paying to really see Beyoncé!
@@parisjej 💯🎯👏🏽
T Pain has a beautiful spirit, he hasnt hated on people even though they hated on him.
no lie, I almost cry at the end of the video! this man has gone thru a lot and I'm so happy he's doing good now! He's part of my childhood! I grew up listening to all his album!
The end of this video almost brought me to tears too. I really pray that T Pain has found peace and lives a happy life. The industry is demonic especially for those with pure intentions
I feel like Tpain is a nice guy that is surrounded by assholes. I always got
good vibes from him. While I do find it messy that he would air out details, I don't think it was because he was being an asshole but because he just doesn't play politics. He's gonna say what happened because it happened.
Agreed
Are U Japanese ?
1. He can actually sing, technique and style.
2. Everyone stole his swag
3. No one wanted to give T pain credit.
I love his spirit...he acts like a regular person. He was just doin HIM and everyone copied!! That's unfair
And I was saying this in the back of my head. I think that’s what they were jealous of, not the music, the spirit. I will forever have J Cole in my head about what he said on Jay-Z. Most of the men that were against him where the top narcissist in the game. They all role together till this day. I think most of the time these are blessings because T-Pain is more free than the man above his head.
Whoa whoa whoa time out. No one ever copied Tpain. Artist were sampling autotune before Zap and Rodger. He played himself when he made a career of exclusively sampling to autotune only. Jay Zs 'death of autotune' was more about a genre who didn't care to completely reinvent. At their age we would have done anything to be the remote opposite of our parents in every way. It was odd to see the youth just remake a watered down version of us and call that rebellious. In an effort to let the culture evolve I will agree the previous generation thought he was a gimmick and never took anything about him seriously.
True that!
Nappy roots ...
Jealous. Its crazy how they hated on him for using auto tunes but they started using them. Jayz probably mad because T-Pain thought to use it first. I can't believe Jay-Z and Usher treated him like that.
Usher was probably pissed and still pissed about the MJ record tbh. Jay-Z didn’t really have a reason. I could see where usher was coming from because MJ! It’s MJ.
Also, T-Pain is the “nice guy” so his success would’ve disrupted the industry’s mentality that being a bad person makes you successful. They got rid of him for a lot of weird reasons
Word
FR and the fact they kept saying his song was "for b*tches" yuck!
He wasn’t no thug either.
He wasn’t problematic and he is still married!
FACTS
Damn!! T-Pain clearly did not deserve all that nasty hatred. He seems like a down to earth kinda guy. I’m glad Chris Brown and Ne-Yo stayed true to him.
Me to becuz their real
Yesss..I felt so bad for him but u can't keep a real one down.
Rick Ross & Lil Wayne stuck around too! Ross got a joint called Florida Boy with Pain from just a couple years ago & Wayne and T-Pain collaborated constantly throughout the years, even as recently as Goat Talk on T-Pain's album 1Up
Yeah I'm so happy they stayed loyal too. As for DJ Khaled .....
Yes. He's very talented and talented person. Love his humility ❤
Anyone that can rhyme “mansion “ with “Wisconsan”is a genius! Stop playing with Teddy Pain!🤯💋
Right!! 😄😄
😂🤣

My favorite line of that song!
T*Pain been thru it 😔 So happy for him that he was able to rise again & continue on with success. Hate how much sh*t he was put thru in the industry & how most of the ones he helped weren't there for him when he was in need [[except for CB/Neyo]]...but them showing their true colors was best in the long run because he realized who truly had his back.
T-Pain seems like such a sweet, real person. Breaks my heart how fake most of his peers were to him. He didn’t deserve it! It sounds like many of them were JEALOUS and ENVIOUS! Sick… I’m glad he has happiness now and I hope he never forgets he literally changed music history and brought so much joy to our lives.

It’s crazy how Usher said that he ruined music when T Pain got these rappers singing in autotune.
And much of it is not even bad.. there are some shitty records. But that's in every style.. just like every style has its gold.. I hate they blamed T Pain for EVERYTHING.. I think that Usher and prolly some others issue was they felt threatened, just as his original group members were.. they saw how influential he IS and feared being outshined.. Jealousy is a mf..

Facts
Preach!!!
He made me tear up. I was so happy to see him and heard his story thru out the show
Literally can’t find a song without auto tune nowadays! Give this man his flowers now!
T-Pain is a damn legend!!!! I loved every single one of his songs ! He is beyond talented and a innovator! It’s so unfortunate that he was black balled by his very own peers and friends, who we genuinely helped. I hope T-Pain gets his flowers. He absolutely deserves it.
T pain is a broad
T-PAIN brought the magic to music with autotune. He inspired so many artists and so many timeless pieces of art. I can only imagine how hard it was for him to go from being a chart-topping superstar to everybody turning their back on him and knocking his hustle. T-PAIN is a true legend and I'm glad he's finally feeling the love and appreciation he needed during his darker times. Shoot for the stars people, but protect your spark
Facts! These vultures will sense a light and try to dim it in a swiftness !! Happened to me. I wasn’t in the industry or nothing ,but like in high school and stuff. I am just getting over all the people that I allowed to trample over my dreams and talents!
I guess you never heard of Zapp and Roger, they are the lings of auto tune.
I’m glad T-pain was able to bounce back from his “downfall”. It just goes to show…you may keep a good guy down for a minute, but talent always wins out in the end. Good job on this video!
Me to.
And that my friend is why Nicki isn't going anywhere even with being black balled.
I hope he can make some good music and get on the charts. Or do the superbowl or something. He has enough hits and is overall loved by everyone like a Snoop or Missy. ( I think TPAIN and Missy should do the superbowl together)
It's clear to me that T-Pain didn't realize how GREAT he was...being impacted by lyrics in Jay-Z song; then depressed by Ushers negative unwarranted commentary...damn had he really realized his worth he would have ignored all that ish. Oh and yes, they definitely planned to get T-Pain out the industry so Future could shine.
Yes!! It goes to show that even if we don’t see our own light🌞 others do!! I wish he could’ve realized how great he was/is.. but everything happens for a reason. That industry is dark, demonic, & NOT OF GOD
This man is a Legend and they saw him as an easy target to bully. Once HOV disrespected him with DOA he should have just kept his distance. You can’t knock a man down for finding new and inventive ways to be creative. Music is an art and as such is malleable. He deserved way more than what he got.
I love the way T-Pain freely talks about his L's lmaoooo he's such a goodhearted easy going dude! He really didn't deserve none of those L's to be honest.
The fact that he popularized an entire style of music and then the people clearly inspired by him never gave him any credit... Foul
Damn, they were mad at him, for him doing what they were doing in secret. He has the prettiest skin. His songs are 🔥 & he’s a legend. So I wonder what they think about music now? These rappers do mumble rap & a bunch of other dumb shit 🙄. Lyrics have no substance.
Yes to everything u said!

Bartender, I can’t believe it, all great music, great memories. What a nice genuine guy. Seems like he didn’t realize how messed up the industry can be. Seems like he got bashed, once all the other artists started using auto tune and it interfered with his style. Come on T Pain, praying for you to make a comeback!❤️
Damn, I forgot how much influence he had during my generation. I remember every single song and collab he did. He was literally on every other song that played on the radio.
Fr
Right Gd music unlike now lol 😂
He should drop an album called “Envious” and just get everything off his chest
He need to
For real
Wow that idea sounds pretty cool
I like that
This is the best comment I seen.
That is literally the state if T-pain right now. We have been seeing him rise to relevance lately and seeing all the behind the scenes stuff. Time to get it out
They were so unfair to him. He was such a good and talented soul and all they did was hate on him, wow. I hope gets back up because he’s so creative.
This one was deep. Greatly appreciated the amazing detail, the interviews, and the actual appearances from T-Pain on the issues he faced. Very Well Done.
TPain didn’t ruin music. Auto tune was always around. The problem was everyone jacking his style and trying to sound like him
💯 Exactly . Whenever an artist comes out unique everyone else tries to steal their uniqueness
I swear a lot of people really have a 1 Dimensional way of thinking. 🤦🏽♂️
Straight Craig Mack'n him.
True
This man deserves every accolade. The talent is undeniable.
Fr
T Pain is the GOAT. And he’s extremely humble, and extremely strong for shaking back from the hate. A real innovator
I whole-heartedly AGREE
I loooooves my T-Pain!!! He can do no wrong in my eyes. He’s such an amazing artist and he’s so versatile. Even to this day he’s eons ahead of these RnB as well as rap artists. Give that man his props!! Epiphany is still one of my favorite albums by any artist period! I can play it right this second front to back and not skip one song! Thank you Empress!! You never miss with these mini docs, Sis!! All praises to you!!
T-pain seems like a very kind and open person. There’s nothing like a humble celebrity.
T-Pain was my high school. PERIODT! You couldn’t turn on the radio without hearing T-Pain. This man didn’t need a six pack or oiled up abs. Most of my classmates had him as a ringtone. He is a GOAT artist!
@@rebornmystic3274 facts
T-Pain was a treasure to the 2000s music scene. Everybody that even threw shade at him were messy as hell for doing that. T-Pain was just a genuine guy that wanted to try a different sound. Hell yea he would turn to drinking and depression and that shows he is human. I wish him further success.
Right!!
Thank you for bringing awareness to this Empressive, I didn’t realize that so many people disliked T-Pain. I have always loved him & I was always curious as to what happened to him + why his career suddenly just stopped? Etc.
It sounds like everyone was jealous of T-Pain. I loved his music 😩🙌 He was doing his thing, and everyone just had shit to say.
I love T-Pain idc what anybody says. His hits was a WHOLE VIBE. When his song came on you instantly ran to the dance floor. I was f*cking it up at parties, prom and those bomb as summers with friends. Forget those that tried to slander this man smh.
I remember the first season of the “masked singer” it really was redemption for him and I remember when he cried because it validated that he was good enough, he was great and the industry was just some HATERS!
Tpain came in, changed the game! Left his mark and will go down as a legend plus his songs are STILL a bop! His music stands the rest of time period
"Can't Believe It" is still my favorite. I still bump that joint. But I agree wit everything u jus said. The man got a Co-sign from MJ. As far as I'm concerned, he certified for life 🔥🎯💯‼️
His music is timeless
Right all the songs she named in this video. I knew them every single one. You can’t say that about a lot of people.
Aww wow, I need to look that up..!
I have to go find Masked Singer Season 1 just so I can see my guy!...😃
Man i got emotional.
I think that all of US we need a second chance.
Tpain is a Legend and Strong ❤️🇲🇿🔥
I love when she does a video on an artist, she really does her research and I’m never disappointed.
Right she definitely be on point with it. 💯💯
The lesson here is; Life is cruel. "Elites" never want the underdog to succeed and steal their thunder.
Also that the music industry will eat you up and spit you out in a second.
@@markmolino679 That's literally how life goes in and out of the industry.
It's been shown throughout history where the underdog does win.
He seems like such a nice likable person.
He really does.!
Same thing I said. Imagine him been a thug and going after them smh.
That may have been why they fucoes with him. On some "why should he have all the shine" type ish. Ain't nothing more viscous bitchy or backstabbing than music industry cats.
Never really been a fan of T-Pain or his music, but listening to him speak, he seems like such a humble sensitive dude who just didn't want to start any confrontation. That can be difficult when you're in the rap game
We need to give tpain his flowers while he’s still here. The crazy thing is rosin can really sing !!
T Pain is thee most underrated musical genius! This man put his stamp on the music scene. His music STILL hits on commercials, movies, and God only knows where else. Big ups to him.
He has such a bubbly personality. U can't help but smile.
Sorry but T-Pain's career isn't dead in my circle. I'm still adding songs of his to my playlist to this day! Lovin "Wake up Dead" with him and C Breezy. His verzuz battle was a party! He ruined nothing with auto tune cuz it was being used, successfully, decades b4 him. Some of y'all need 2 stop sleepin on him. #TPainfan4Life 💜🎵💜
The reason, in my opinion, why T-Pain's career went downward was due to jealousy. When T-Pain came on the scene, he blew up so hard, so quick and so fast that the industry couldn't really cash on his fame like the rest. The industry wasn't prepared for his artistry and certain "entertainers" (like the one who REALLY needs to go get a haircut), was seriously jealous of his style. I'm just glad to see that T-Pain overcame his hardships and conquered his demons and have started singing again.
Usher was jealous. Casting spells through his negative words (knowingly or unknowingly). Be careful who you listen to!
Usher got his karma a few years later when those herpes allegations came out. He was mad because nobody was calling him to do features. How does someone f up music when they have had numerous hit records on radio at the same time. Usher was definitely jealous and in his feelings.
Dude I love T-Pain. I found out he can actually sing while watching some random videos online. I watched masked singer and I knew it was him singing and man I was so proud of him. He seems like an extremely cool dude. I’m happy he made his was back.
T Pain had hit after hit. He had a different sound *and* it sounded good! Plus, we love him here in WI. Mansion rhyming with Wisconsin? How could he not be a legend
That's one of my favorite lines 😆.🎵 Put you in a mansion...🎶
I remember in high school living in the caribbean and heard I can't believe for the first time. That song solidify my love for him. Song is still on my top 50 r&b sound. The song was a masterpiece for me.
@@StaciSimpson mine too!
@@Trustyzaney that’s awesome! And absolutely, that song feels like home to me
T-pain is one of those time period artists. Listen to any of his old hits and you’ll be transported RIGHT back to the early 2000s. 90s babies know what it isssss ☺️❤️
Don't forget we 80s baby was still in high school or just graduated high school. Trust T-Pain got plenty of play at the house parties, kickbacks, and cookouts.
His music is timeless
Jay Z seemed like he was being funny with it but Usher low key was hating because he wasn't hitting like he used to. That's why he dropped OMG with guess what? Autotune
I literally said this … niggaz was mad Tpain was GOAT
jay z meant it; ol hatin ass
No matter what any other artists has to say. T-Pain single handedly changed the whole game into his style. Give it 20-30 years and he'll be labeled the most influential artists of his era.
DJ Khaled is an opportunist! Poor T-pain, he was big part of my childhood! I will always love him!
Plus he is always forcing his son down our throat .
@@stacyr4768 his mini me
@@rahbeeuh it doesn’t look right to me how he has this little baby on stage while he is performing late at night .
@@stacyr4768 it doesn't look right to me either. His son is like his mascot or something. Poor kid didn't ask for that lifestyle. Sure he's rich but still.
Not a fan of DJ Khaled at all. Something about him gives me "user" vibes and like he's overhyped.
Artists like Jay Z was only mad becuz someone became bigger than him and made an impact in music. Idk about anyone else, but Jay Z acts like no one can be bigger and better than him. T Pain literally did nothing to him and Jay Z felt the need to ruin his career for no reason except his ego was hurt...
💯🎯 My exact thoughts
Right agreed. Why stop someone else's bag???
So true! Remember how dirty him and Alicia did lil mama.. their are no frens are camaraderie in the industry. These record exces only cars about $$ nt the artiste.
Him and Beyoncé honestly
Right. He gotta big ego...such a big ego
To all the artists who helped ruin his career because of jealousy, you will find out who God’s favorite is 🌚
Just realised this man had so many smash hits, he had hits for days and the industry did him dirty. He also seems like a legitimately nice guy, no bs and the industry colleagues couldn't handle his level of success so they had to sabotage him
