The nostalgia runs wild on Softest Hard‘s latest single, “I’m Blue,” a festival-ready take on Eiffel 65‘s iconic 1998 anthem, “Blue (Da Ba Dee).” But it doesn’t end there: you’ll also hear the silky smooth voice of autotune king T-Pain, whom Softest Hard tapped for the track’s lead vocal.

Dillon Francis and T-Pain Have Another Collab In the Works

It looks like lightning is going to strike twice with D-Pain. Dillon Francis has announced he’s working with T-Pain again after the two released “Catchy Song” back in 2019. This time around, it seems like the two have teamed up for a more traditional electronic collaboration as opposed to the bubblegum “Catchy Song,” which was featured in the children’s movie The Lego Movie 2 back in 2019. And from Francis’ reaction last week, the track is shaping up to be a big one: Back in September T-Pain shared that he was actively seeking collaborators in EDM, house, and techno, tweeting that he “can lead us to musical greatness.” Just 24 hours prior he appeared onstage with Francis in Las Vegas and performed a number ...

T-Pain Forgives Usher For Telling Him He “Kinda F*cked Up Music” As The 2 R&B Icons Share Stage In Atlanta

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Paras Griffin / Getty Do y’all remember when singer/songwriter and producer T-Pain made an appearance on the Netflix docuseries This Is Pop and recalled how he was on a flight when he was woken up to meet with none other than R&B icon Usher on the plane only to have Usher tell him about how he “kinda f***ed up music” with his signature use of auto-tune in his songs, and how that sent him into a depression? I mean, it was kind of a punk move. Even if you do believe T-Pain’s use of the audio plug-in he made famous was the beginning of the end of mainstream music—which…meh, that’s debatable—you have to admit that Usher being a music legend and going out of his way to ambush an up and coming artist on a flight to tell him that he and his digital voice box...

T-Pain Is Looking for EDM Collaborators: “I Know I Can Lead Us to Musical Greatness”

Taking to Twitter, the famed hip-hop and R&B artist earnestly petitioned the dance music talent pool to show him their best stuff, especially projects within the house and techno creative vein.  While the “I’m Sprung” singer initially confessed this may all just be spur of the moment inspiration induced by the lights and sounds of Las Vegas, he later doubled down on his request for producers to start sharing videos of their current projects with the hashtag #broedmfortpainwouodbetightasf. With the right producer by his side, T-Pain suggests the sky is the limit. “I know I can lead us to musical greatness,” he tweeted. Recommended Articles Elec...

In Rare Instagram Post Dr. Dre Agrees With T-Pain About Rappers Being “Repetitive”

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Bernard Smalls / @PhotosByBeanz83 T-Pain’s hilarious rant about rappers all sounding the same resonated with none other than Dr. Dre himself.

T-Pain Says Usher Pushed Him Into Depression For Claiming He “F*cked Up” The Music Game

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Prince Williams / Getty Ever since blowing up in the mid 00’s, T-Pain‘s got a lot of hate and whatnot for making Auto-Tune a thing in Hip-Hop & R&B music (See Jay-Z’s “Death Of Auto-Tune”), but the criticism even drove the man to depression. In an exclusive clip from Netflix’s upcoming series This Is Pop, the “Buy U A Drank” singer revealed that it was none other than R&B legend Usher Raymond who drove him into that dark and lonely place. Detailing the moment it happened, a visibly disturbed Teddy Penderazzdown recalled how a flight attendant woke him from his slumber while he was on his way to the 2013 BET Awards. After informing him that Usher would like to chop it up with him in the back. After making his way back there and exchanging pleas...
