Artist of the Week
T-Pain

Week 22 of 2007




T-Pain

For weeks, pop, country and R&B had been switching foot to dominate the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Rap was not within sight until T-Pain's "Buy U a Drank (Shawty Snappin')" successfully landed the very first spot. The song first peeked at #84 and stayed in the chart for seven remarkable weeks by climbing at a steady rate until it reached the highest spot. Though having a slow hike, the single that is featuring Young Joc, has been the greatest airplay gainer for seven times. So unconventional does the song that it also receives various remixes from his fellow warriors such as T.I., R. Kelly, Stat Quo, Pitbull, P. Diddy, Kanye West and many more. This single proves two things about him; that he actually can pen a number 1 hit and that he hasn't lost his niche since "I'm N Luv (Wit a Stripper)". With the single's strength, his album "Epiphany" might encounter the same fate upon its release in June 2007. This is probably why he is made one of the musicians trusted to bring back the career of pop queen Britney Spears.
