T-Pain prepares New Album

Early in his career, T-Pain made a name for himself for multiple reasons. First, he was the artist who brought the auto-tune back into the game and he was also known for his hit, "I'm In Luv (Wit a Stripper)." Throughout his career, T-Pain has evolved to become one of the biggest names in hip hop. Statistically, his best year was in 2008, but things came crashing down one year later, when Jay-Z returned with "Death of Auto-tune."

While the song was not aimed a T-Pain, it led to a sharp decline in the popularity of his music. The popularity of the song even led to T-Pain pushing the album back until 2010. Weary of the auto-tune backlash, he has changed his style for this new album. He has decided to move along past the auto-tune and to start singing with his own voice. Aside from singing, T-Pain also raps.

Throughout his career, T-Pain has been known for the multiple guest appearances that he has on his albums. Each of his three released albums have had high-profile guest appearances. In return, T-Pain usually does a hook for these artists. While he is still open to doing hooks for other artists, on his new album, not only will T-Pain be ditching the top hat, but he will also be ditching the auto-tune and the multiple guest appearances. He feels that the only way that he can properly handle himself on an album is to do it without any assistance from other artists or instruments.

The fourth album from T-Pain is titled RevolveR and it is expected to be released later on this year.
