Hip-Hop artist T-Pain is only 22 years-old, and he has already produced more music than artists who’ve spent a lifetime in the entertainment field. He’s just been nominated for five Grammy Awards. That’s on top of the MTV Video and Vibe music awards he won previously. VOA’s Larry London recently talked with T-Pain about his skyrocketing music career.
Hip-Hop artist T-Pain success is big and getting bigger. He describes himself, "I’m such a humble person. A lot of people tell me I don’t know how big (famous) I am."
For the past three years, T-Pain has written, performed and produced an impressive amount of award-winning music, not only for himself, but also for many other R&B artists. His music is in a genre that’s hard to define.
Hip-Hop, T-Pain explains, "It really doesn’t have a meaning. Hip-Hop is a feeling to me. Hip-Hop is a moment, a mode, that you can get into at any given moment."
Despite all his success, T-Pain didn’t get much respect when he first arrived on the Hip-Hop scene.
