- Part 13: • Akon Did Michael Jacks...
Part 1: • Akon on Growing Up in ...
--------
In this clip, Akon speaks about dropping his third album "Freedom," which features hits like "Right Now," "I'm So Paid," and "Beautiful." After pointing out that that album went diamond, Akon went on to speak about signing T-Pain, who he feels could've went farther if he would've moved outside of the urban arena. Akon explained that urban audiences aren't loyal and there's only a short timeframe before a new artist comes along and steals the spotlight away. He then spoke about Future and Migos being the two most influential artists in terms of introducing a rap style that others conform to, which you can hear more about above. - Zábava
T Pain had a great career songs still everywhere
Song * his song is still here . No more
Ong bruh
Tpain is still dope people just sleeping same thing they done to 50
💯
John Doe no future and Rocko black balled him
T pain himself said he fell off due to his lifestyle. So Akon isn’t dissing him. He’s saying he could’ve elevated even higher. Ppl just look for the negative in everything
Right, Akon was simply saying was true for a lot of artist. You can do the hood shit for so long. Somebody else is always going to come along & copy you. Switch it up 🤷♀️
What was going on w his lifestyle?
Amari Smith he just got into excessive partying drinking and spending money. Basically addicted to the night life type shit
Thank you for saying it, forreal
@@matthewharris9580 💯💯
T Pain, is the Pusha T of Booty songs.
"How many songs can you make about a booty? 'Like a thousand!!'"
Bro this comparison is as on point as it gets.
@7MGTESupraTurboA hindu is not an ethnicity...
7MGTESupraTurboA 😂
I read that in T Pains voice 😂😂
@@thewarreport6204 You should have😆. He did a remix on Ella Mai's 'Boo'd up'.
T-pain is the reason today's artist uses autotune, even Lil Wayne..he's left his mark. Sadly, noone seems to give him the recognition he deserves smh
@Chi Non Exactly! They, for some stupid reason, don't even respect
T Pain, he said it on a live video on how people did him wrong
He fucked up dissing Jay z bitch ass for some reason people think Jay is a God
On that's what happened? Idk he talked about Jay Z
@@ant-xietypodcast4518 hov dissed him first(kinda with DOA), but yeah tht come back at hom
Anthony Holmes I honestly think Jay Z pushed that narrative. I don’t know anyone who actually listens to his shit, yet, he’s always trending?
Why is he acting like T-pain didn’t have a great career? He was mainstream
He should've been bigger...mind you Future is older than T-Pain
thats what im trynna understand
King Math who gives a damn whos older? T-Pain doesnt promote genocide & poison to his community so of course he didnt have the popularity of Future
@Adrian Grey wtf you talking about you dumbass
His point is T Pain didn’t meet his full potential
So confused considering tpains catalog kills akons...
AYO vlad I think I started a GREAT VERSUS BATTLE 😂
Not internationally
Damn right
FACTS
Akon is global
Glad dont know music. He likes migos and takashi
t pain is a superstar. he can rap, sing, dance, did anyone see him on the masked singer? dudes one of the most talented and underrated artists ever
The 1st winner
Some of u need to listen to akon again. He is not dissing t pain.
Akon is a smart guy, I didn't hear him diss t pain
Not to hate T-Pain has more hits than Akon himself.
@Obama Trump your not hating its the truth
No
Akon crossed genres and he is international
Lol do your googles bro.
T pain is more popular in Urban music and Akon is known very well Internationally
T-Pain is a legend tbh. He's My childhood man, I remember getting dropped off to school and he and lil Wayne would dominate the radio, then once school was over, I'll get in the car and guess who was playing? Either wayne or t-pain.
Exactly tho
Diversification is the key to business...period. Akon speaks facts
I don't think he's dissing T-Pain, it's seems he's assessing how potential growth opportunity in cross-marketing could still be realized.
yeah you need a habitual liar who does business with the Chinese who does business in Africa assessing you because civilized countries don't do business with human rights violators except Akon doesn't care about ethics like that.
C-brown I totally agree. You know folks will find a way to Tear each other down and cause division. Hell look at the comment section and it’s always the same smh
@@BangBangBang. when you say human rights violators you're talking about the US and most western countries as regards Africa, right?
He is dissing the fact that Black Americans have no loyalty to our people.
@@BangBangBang. jokes on you to think Americans aren't human right violators
Bruh Akon losing alot of respect with every part of this interview. Dude talkn str8 out his ass.
Hell yea he losing a lot of respect since coming back in the spotlight
bruhhhhh shut uppp and listen !!!!! what did he say that didnt make sense ???
@@rotimifrancis6192 that's what I wanna know too
He dont care about that respect..fuck that he making money and he is entitled to what he says...tell me when is the ladt time u checked up on him
Akon needs to just fall back and chill with these interviews.
Everyone talking down on Akon doesn't remember what his impact was like when he was hot. Dude had a couple of #1 hits and like 15 top 10 hits. He up there with T-Pain.
But the point is ,here we have Akon saying Pain's career didn't advance as if he wasn't everywhere and didn't have an big impact on a whole generation...Those talking down on Akon,are saying Pain had more hits than Akon and that's true..We know Akon had hits though
J. Armand actually Akon, 50 cents, Bird Man, Xzibit and Ice Cube dominated radio with their songs back in the day.
T-Pain was nowhere close to Akon worldwide
I don’t think they were knocking T Pain, They gave him his credit. But I agree, He could’ve been more flexible. He’s talented with and without Autotune
He could have broke out more like akon had some really pop songs which also had meaning
*T Pain's career did advance, what are they talking about? He's a legend!*
@Mr. Marshall 😂 dam
Mr. Marshall facts
@Mr. Marshall that is true
@Mr. Marshall and you a nigga that never did anything impactful in your life.
__ loaded "Tiger-Uppercut!!"😂😂🤣
Akon is right but the headline is clickbait. And some of you fell for it. 😂😂😂
You can clearly tell the people that didn't watch the video but reacted to the headline. Lol
LMAO 🤣 Reading these comments, I see no one gets what AKON is saying. He's not dissing...
That's true mane! 🤦🏻♂️
Exactly
We don’t care what he thinks.
@@StevenRobertsJr everyone has the decision to think
Why is everyone twisting Vlad’s words? He never said that T Pain didn’t have hits and blow up. He only said Future stole his wave and ran with it. And it’s true
THAT'S BECAUSE HE'S A REAL DUDE THAT DOESN'T MAKE SONGS WITH SNITCH9
T-pain advocated for snitching before akon did (sadly) but besides me not being able to respect either one of them as a man, t-pain>akoon tho
Jarran Tyler Shut the fuck up kid, you’ll still tune in and listen to whatever song “Snitch9” makes cause you’re a goddamn hater.
Ted Harris physic? 😂 Also it’s a fact 69 haters listen to his songs, it’s very obvious with the way they’re always talking about him. Don’t hate 69, hate the culture which made him even more famous than he already was.
T-pain has a very successful singing career and an even more successful producing career. If you don't realize that dude has produced and written for many of your favorite artists! Akon sounds a bit like a hater to me!
you sound like you dont listen ......please listen to him again !!!!
Akon is a "Jamie"... talkin' real slick & foul with "Magog" about an Isreallite...
@@rotimifrancis6192 these fangirls in their feelings about another grown man what has this world come to lol
How can he be a hater when he signed t-pain? The more t-pain made, the more akon would make. He wanted the best for the dude. You gotta listen bro.
@@b.romero6846 facts
2:44 this is facts 🤷🏾♂️. Every year it’s a new “ hot “ artist and ppl don’t care about you if you don’t have the new hot record on the radio
If you were around in 2007 you should understand exactly how T-Pain and Akon are legends
Akon trippin, TPain damn near has more classics than him. Most of them weren’t commercial hits. Pain also had hella features on his run.
@sean rigg half rap industry lol
Him and Wayne has a crazy feature run at that time ppl forget 50 called weezy a rap whore for all them features. Didn’t they have a twayne album?
He has way more classics than Akon lol
His point was what you just said. He could’ve been bigger if he had “commercial hits”...the previous interview was about Akon doin records with Michael Jackson & Whitney Houston....he’s essentially saying TPain could’ve been that big in “pop music” to collab with artists on that scale. TPain had a solid career & than everyone left him for Future
I believe pain eventually started doing house/edm, it was after he was smoking hot though. I can’t relate to Akons music though.
"t-pain is more talented than future"
Future has no talent. T-pain can actually sing without the autotune
No talent? U believe that?
Word
Future is a rapper maybe?
Future was a rapper tpain was a singer you can't compare them
Stop it. Being able to sing is not the only criteria for talent in the music industry. Especially hip hop. Future is a legend in the game and still a heavy hitter.
FACTS!!! Our people are not loyal. We are ALWAYS on to the next new shining thing! And I blame the music industry heads.
Some of you missed the point...
He said, "T Pain never left the hood, he confined his music to Urban Music". I wouldn't say that's bad (if that's what Pain wanted) but he definitely didnt lie.
I'm not in the USA, perhaps he had plenty billboard number ones but in Europe he didn't even hit the ceiling. The Internet can create a facade and make people seem larger than life but his sales weren't amazing in comparison to Akon or Gaga.
It's like the Prince and MJ argument where one is internationally recognised as a number 1 selling icon in any chart and the other is just and great legend. Even Eminem has more number 1s over here than Jay Z.
Good point. The only correction I'd add is Eminem has more hits than Jay Z almost everywhere, including the US. Eminem has sold about a 100m records more than Jay
@@MA-go7ee how is buy you a drank hood
They both make corny pop songs
SINCE The whole 6ix9ine situation with akon i now look and see a person with those kind of morals is probably scamming his investors and never actually going to build his so called "wakanda " city.. probably just a scam,
Its china money so why would they build wakanda
He showing his True colors, terrible.
You really believe he gonna build something 😂😂
Sing along if you you know the words.. 🎶
He's bout to be a brutal dictator
And it don't matter, no.
Cuz he ain't white
Libs and Cons alike
Gon line up to help him go
And,
Become another brutal dictator
Selling folks out for dough. 🎶 🎵
T-Pain from Tallahassee, I got alot of Family there and everybody I ran into that was from his hood, said he barely ever came around. Especially after he got robbed and then retaliated... T-Pain always talked about wanting to Leave Tallahassee ( his name means Tallahassee Pain) but it really is about the type of music he was putting out.
Exactly! He forgot where he came from thus the reason why we dont like him...
I got people in Tally too and they said the same thing u just said
I live in Tally. Pain from Ridgeroad on da south side. Nigga don’t come to Tally. At all. Tf Akon talking about?
Akon is taking about his type of music wasn’t pop. Wasn’t really for the white guys
I went to middle school and high school with him. He use to be layed back. I stayed in Cascade Village probably not even 10 minutes from his mom's old house. But he use to keep hood niggaz with him through school.
"If you lookin' for me I'll be on the block with my thang cocked possibly sittin' on a drop now. Because I'm rider. I'm a soul survivor." Is a legendary hook. One of the smoothest G hooks in the game. Of all time. Cements Akon's place in the history of Hip Hop.
All he saying is tpain could’ve leveraged his stardom into other markets n got more bread. This is the music ‘business’. Kon aint say nothing crazy here... y’all trippin lol
People are dumb af.... they don’t comprehend well at all...
Facts
Im actually seeing akon wisdom in every interview. He not boxed in like everybody wants him to be. He makes his on decisions not based on what the majority thinks who tends to can't think independently themselves
This nigga had ONE hit and made deal with wypipo. Now he an expert gtfoh
He didn't articulate that as well as you did
Essentially what he’s saying is he wanted T-Pain to go that pop edm route like he did smh.
But that's not what he said though...soooo
Whats wrong with that? He supposed target the international market once he took over the states.
@@ariefraiser140 that's exactly what he said
@@josephsavage-seymour7825 What he said was he wanted TPain to expand beyond the autotune lane and expand his fan base. He didn't say he necessarily wanted him to go pop. EDM, R&B, maybe collab on Afrobeats etc.
Bruh I was thinking he was shittin on tpain til I saw the video, people are psycho
Akon is a black white guy.. I'm not excited
Hilfiger are u a whites black person
Nope, he just not a regular black person from America. If you stayed in Africa long enough you would get it.
Hilfiger who are you
Akon is From Senegal. He probably has more pure genetics than you
@Hilfiger I read he is willing to do wild nasty shit to get ahead bro.. Left the hood only to talk less about it. Why dont you ask urself what happened for him to work with Tekashi and not even bc the snitching but the wild ignorance Tekashi represents.. Money always gon be there.
Future did not "replace" T-Pain, 2 completely different artists.
Akon wasn’t trashing T-Pain lol. He’s just saying musically T-Pain should be way bigger than he is now as talented as he is. He didn’t take his talents to other genres like other musicians have and he got left behind. T-Pain is super talented just like Kanye but Ye always switches up his taste which is why he’s still super relevant.
T Pain vs Akon Versus Battle!!! Taking all bets
I’m taking T-Pain
T-Pain for the win
T Pain already lost a battle. I dont think he will do it again
T- Pain takes it EASILY! But I'd still watch tho lol 😆
@@LoLLoL-mm6tt who beat him?
Lol y'all emotional. Akon offered Pain the best deal for his career and it paid off for Pain going with Akon. Pain screwed up doing all them features for free and they didn't show love back for his projects. They stole his wave and blackballed him.
Someone with facts and not in their feelings like most of these silly ass comments
T pain changed music forever…. He a legend
T-Pain is a living Legend I don't care what they said, T-Pain was on everyone's song and hook
T-Pain is one of the best known rapper in the world, he got more hits than akon worldwide. He did more hit features the last 10 years than akon did in his lifetime to be honest.
Keklol W. Akon brought Lady GaGa to the table just like Dr.Dre brought Eminem to the table that's a financial win.
Akon got more hits lol n i dont like him either
@Mehvin akon global dumbass billboard is for the us only
@@morelyfe1891 t pain global for us
Akon sounds upset that T-Pain is a better singer and producer then he'll ever be. T-Pain is *still* a relevant, house hold name to this day. I don't think I can say the same for Akon.
Where is t pain
Hell nah
Akon didn't need auto tune to make good hooks. Dude is international
Akon over T Pain 100%....
@@123456CBOY tryna put himself back in the light tbh... He's dope af but he fell back and off. I thought he would've been global after that "5 o clock in the morning" shit, but he didn't push harder
Bruh TPain a legend he still known till this day. His career as a singer wasn't that long but all his songs are still known and heard of. Just like he is himself T Pain is still dope his career as a celebrity is still here with or without music Pain is still well talked of. Like if he never left he still talked about like if his last hit song was just a few months ago. Which many singers can't have the same fame he has. It's actually crazy cause I've never even thought about it but he's still around.
“Advancing” is something that never ends so stop acting like he meant t-pain didn’t make it but he would’ve been bigger than what he is now, not only in music.
nah, dats just how the hating mind works
T pain himself said he fell off due to his lifestyle. So Akon isn’t dissing him. He’s saying he could’ve elevated. Ppl just look for the negative in everything
All Future does his hood music and he still popping. What's this guy talking about?
Nah future done a Spanish record it went diamond
He does rnb too
Future makes all types of music but his music is PRIMARILY trap. Listen to futures catalog, and revise your comment. He’s saying T Pain stuck to one type of sound and his career declined as a result of it.
Future is a rapper tpain has potential to go into any genre
Cam10allday future isn’t a rapper he’s an artist. He’s appealed to crowds of Trap, Latin, Emotional/depression, romance and more. Don’t sleep
He didn't say anything wrong. He didn't say Tpain did have hits nor did he not have classics but that he basically catered to one specific group of people.
Akon is telling the truth you gotta expand your audience and evolved your brand.
For me akon freedom album was the greatest I’ve ever heard personally,still listen to it in car now quality !!,
Migos jacked Lord Infamous flow and style
I been saying this for YEARS
Not at all
Have u heard lord infamous rap?? That shyt was computer, monotone af.
U gotta point
T-Pain is a legend. His songs are still classics till this day. He was on Saturday night live. Akon wishes he touched T-pain levels
But Ako.n is smarter business man future. Of Senegal
Akon has his own CITY tpain isnt close to him lmao. Akon about the community not just songs
U a dummy
Tpain level you must be clown
I be honest, i never liked Akon's music but i have maaaaaad RESPECT for this man, because he does so much for Africa. I salute you for this.
You need to listen to his albums bro
You didn't like his songs ? You must be born in the late 20s cause wtf 🤣
You never like Akon music how come
T Pains songs were common ringtones across NYC when Nextel was Poppin. . T Pain was & is a LEGEND
Truthfully I always thought T-Pain was a bigger star than Akon 🤨
Eddie N damn what you signed to Konvict Music... clam down it ain’t that serious
Your thinking small Akon is global. But as far as the neighborhood you grew up in T-pain music is more know.
Cannot Trust idk about that.. at his height T-Pain was everywhere. All I Do is Win is still being played at Stadiums and Arenas not including commercials. Akon’s biggest song would probably be Soul Survivor or Locked Up or maybe some International Song we’ve never heard of
@@95alive77 T-Pain is like Basketball. Akon is Soccer/futball. Even though you, your friends, and neighbors all love basketball it is eclipsed by Soccer. Soccer is global.
He is
T-Pain fell into a bad habit of splurging his riches, and on top of that was taken advantage of with some of his features. Unfortunate because he's a very bright entertainer.
Lol who says Future replaced T-Pain?????
Man like Walkz ya know 😆
Large up yourself
Future is trash
Ahmed _9

Nobody, Vlad Shit starting Ass😂
Nobody its just the truth 🤷♂️
T-Pain had one the most legendary runs of all time. Especially with Wayne
I get what everyone is saying in the comments, but I think what he’s saying is, TPain could have gone even bigger...and he probably could have...it doesn’t take away from the fact that TPain is completely dope, super talented and respected. I think the point everyone is missing though, is that just because you don’t have the same experience, or walk the same path as the next person, doesn’t take away from your shine. Maybe that route wasn’t meant for TPain, but he’s still a star in our eyes. Everything is perspective.
T pain didn’t sellout not everybody wants to work with every little white pop star just to be bigger for the moment. Actually Akon is wrong the pop crowd are the ones who gets played out the quickest. When the hood loves they love you. people like Boosie can eat for life. Jeezy always can sellout a show even Gucci Mane has a loyal following.
After Jay Z said Death Of The Autotune it was over for T-Pain.
Hell no Jay z ain stop no autotune, the shit was actually used more after he dissed it look at rap today
@@masco2483 facts
Straight kap b/c Jay said it himself DOA didn't apply to T-Pain
Akon & T-Pain are 2 of my favorite artists they killed it in that holla holla song 😎🤘🔥
Click bait.. Akon is just talking about his relevance today, he said nothing about T Pain not having a run of hits back then.
Right! This dude Vlad loooove to start shit
What hits is akon putting out to say anything
@@MrImadummy Just go to his channel, in the last year at 2 songs have over 20mil. Anyway he ain't really on the music these days it's a hobby he's got enough money wise on his plate.
I never understood Future vs T pain, one is a rapper, one is a singer, there is no comparison
Uh, t pain is a rapper turned singer and the same could be said for future.. there is no comparison musically at all tho, both greats in their own right.
Yeah Akon you tripping talking down on pain like he wasn’t/still is a better artist than you. You ever respond to that diss?
Facts but T-Pain could been bigger platform
He not downing him he speaking facts
What diss?
crazyace88 what are facts??? He has more hits than Akon. He doesn’t have enough hits to speak on T-pain
Playboy Ky nigga ain’t nobody being sensitive you on drugs
T-Pain didn't sellout like Pitbull, but he still had a great career and is still putting out bangers to this day!
T-Pain changed the game & course of music. Legend
T pain has been killing it behind the scenes tho with his writing and production credits, dudes been getting the bag and picking up Grammys and no one even knows it
Akon is KILLING himself in this interview.
Yep
Agreed ...not ever has an interview made me completely not like a person who I thought was cool beforehand
@Chi Non its not WHAT you say,its HOW you say it. And Akon been sayin republican ass shit this whole interview.
@Chi Non and the WAY he said what he said was condescending. He basically derided TPain for not taking full advantage of the crossover when he had the chance. He spoke down on T Pains' integrity.
@@gcforreal word. Hes coming of like the stereotypical judgemental opportunistic African,not the cool Senegales car theif from Jersey City i thought he was. But the again,he does LITERALLY have his own money,so 🤷
Wen is the full interview coming out omg I can’t waitrtttt
You can tell from the comments the people didn't even understand what Akon was saying. He didn't once diss T-Pain's career. He said T-Pain stuck to one genre instead of branching out into multiple genres. Even said he feels T-Pain can branch out if he wanted to. Pain LITERALLY said the same exact thing about his own career, which is true. Akon was speaking nothing but facts. If you don't eventually reinvent yourself and change your style around, the general public is eventually going to move on to the next person that's got something they either have never seen, or they haven't seen in a long time. Hip Hop has always been this way...
Trying to figure out why they're comparing TPain and Future, when Future is a rapper, and TPain is a singer🤔
Honestly T pay j raps better than Future
* t pain
Songwriter and producer
Oddly enough TPain is also a better rapper than Future (Fuck Food with Tech Nine is a good example) as well as autotune assisted singer (although he could actually sing without it as well unlike Future)
@Wavybone Andretti tupac n biggie will be turning in their graves if they heard future trying to rap defo a pop star n migos are just a very shite pop boy band how can anyone class mumble rap as talent or even music just sounds like they have a cock n balls in their mouth fyi he'd propz a pussy trying to act gangster
His career didn't advance? Teddy still gets love and radio play.
I'm sprung is a straight classic
Bumpin that shit during COVID19
The sign of a great interviewer is how well they can shout over their subject.
Sounds to me like a lot of stuff T Pain was saying in his interviews is true.
What did Pain say in his interview Fam?
Mikhel Brown Pretty much that he wrote for Akon. I think it was “In love with a stripper” and a couple other songs. Akon turned them down because he was on his “gangsta ish” at the time with sole survivor and locked up. T Pain took them and they became huge. I honestly don’t think he likes how successful T became after doing those songs and overall. I don’t even think T Pain ever even tried to be hood like Akon said. He was just himself. But Akon is trippin on T frfr.
@@MikefromNC I still think Akon was speaking from a positive view. He never said Pain wasn't big, but he could have been bigger👌
Both Akon and T-Pain are legendary artist and producers
i feel like tpain could make a comeback in today’s industry cuz he literally pioneered the sound that everybody uses lol he just gotta connect wit the top artist
Everyone learned how to do what he did. He's low key a legend
Tpains career was 100 times anything akon was ecer able to create.
@Lesane Crooks factual statement. The funny thing you dont consider akon a hater but me stating a fact makes me a hater okkk.
@Lesane Crooks 😆 😆 awesome. And tpain ended up having a much better catalogue of music. And here akon is speaking down on someone elses career musically when his was average at best. Hatin
@Lesane Crooks the fact you care this much to the thousands of comments shows me what kind of mentality you got. You coulda just posted how you felt and kept it moving. Have Good day 🌽
@Lesane Crooks no. I commented you replied to a random comment. And didnt even give any type of opinion but throw shots. 🌽
@Lesane Crooks You only think about the U.S, worldwide Akon is as big as Eminem, Snoop and 50.
Nate Dogg Lil Wayne And Max B Gave Today’s Artists Their Sound
Wayne yes Nate Dogg a goat but no and cut it out with max b its future and migos my guy
Who tf is max b
Stans dont go no where we been here for em since the 90s
Akon is Basically explaining what drake does . Reinvents himself often with different sounds, flows, and relevant features
This title got me confused. Tpain is a star to me and he single handily brought that auto tune to the game. Made his mark and Had plenty of bangers I listen to till this day
The problem why it is unbelievable that Akon had 3 albums in his career it is because all the songs was just hit hit hit🔥🔥🔥🔥
I was never in to Acon. Acon was never big in the south. But T Pain is still being played in the clubs still to this day. Louisiana loves T Pain
Your are amazing! Thank you and God bless you, you absolutely get it and got it! I'm so amazed with your choices and comments! May God bless you always ❣️🙏😊💯
Huh??? Tpain didn’t flop at all!!! His music still being played today lol
Nobody is saying he flopped, their saying his career could have still been making new music to this day and going further had he branched out.
Nahh I love Akon but I gotta disagree with him on this one. T Pain had AMAZING career. His run was insane. At one point you couldn’t even listen to the radio for 20 minutes without hearing him. And in my opinion T pain had more hits and made better music than Akon.
Akon made solid songs were i come from ppl don't know who t pain is
But i like him
He didn't say T-Pain didn't have a great career but saying he would of been even more successful if he would expand his talent going into different genres.
re-visit the interview again
Boi. When T pain was in his prime, he had the charts on lockdown!!
I died at “ Right now (Na Na Na)” 😂
TPain had a good run. Great artist that should have pushed back on Jay Zs autotunes diss
Tpain got classics made his mark that's a great a great career. He was literally all over the radio. He didn't need to go to other genres like you Akon maybe that wasn't his style.
Bro every Dj in America has a Tpain track in their mix I’m blown away
3 Albums and all of them were LEGENDARY!!!
shid I'm bout to listen to some T-pain right now... "WELCOME TO MY HOOD!"
Yeah Akon just proved he a sell out. Just because white people may not know or listen to TPain that means he's not a legend?! Gtfoh. He's a success and legend of our culture period.
Naw, white people definitely listened to T-pain too. That's a fact.
Fuck tpain ans fuck akon ya all debating whos better like really? Spend yo time wisely
@@welvendagreat3654 Its Sunday fool people just chilling having a conversation lol. You should spend your time wisely and stop trying to tell people what they should be doing.
@@welvendagreat3654 you mean as wisely as you randomly commenting on other strangers' comments. 🤦🏾♂️
Period
I'm real life happy to see people still defending tpain to this day
He dropped 3 albums and over a 100 songs around that time that were leaked online. Normally features and new artists. Those days when you would hear 3-5 new Akon songs every week!
T Pain had one of the best careers in the history of music ha Akon is so misled.
T-pain career didn’t advance, he’s a legend. What tf they talking about lol?The flo rida “low” was some club Sh!t getting bumped in every club in America 🇺🇸 😂. Urban and suburban
EXACTLY...look at Flo Rida and Pitbull and they still musical relevant in other genres and are doing stadiums. T-pain aint. its a matter of perspective on success
@Chi Non bro....please use google
@Chi Non and its not about themselves, its about still being big acts on those tours even if they with someone else. How many arena tours has T-Pain been in over the past 5 years.
legend nahh if he was a legend he'd always be mentioned in hip hop convos when people talk about the goats.........and low was flo rida song not his
This is a good time to remind folks that T-Pain had the best “Boo’d Up Remix”
T-Pain paved the way for so many artist in this generation with the use of autotune.
