T-Pain: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert (Singing without Auto-Tune) - SET LIST • Buy U A Drank (Shawty Snappin) • Up Down (Do This All Day) • Drankin Patna T-Pains fingerprints are all over pop and R&B and hip-hop. He wasnt the first musician to use Auto-Tune as an instrument — he noticed it on a Jennifer Lopez remix, and remembers Deep well — but it was, as he says, his style. For a while, in the mid-2000s, he lived at the top of the charts. He dominated that brief moment of our lives when ringtones were a thing. He was celebrated as an innovator, and he happily took his talents where he was invited, which was everywhere. But somewhere along the way, somebody got it twisted. People felt like I was using it to sound good, says T-Pain, in an interview that will air on All Things Considered. But I was just using it to sound different.” He just turned 30, but T-Pain has already done enough to drop a greatest hits album next week. NPR asked him if hed grace the Tiny Desk without any embellishment or effects to show whats really made his career: his voice, and those songs. https://youtube/watch?v=CIjXUg1s5gc#t=78
