AceShowbiz - Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Grammy-winning rapper T-Pain have teamed up for an unexpected cover of Lil Jon & the East Side Boyz's crunk anthem, "Get Low." Released under the moniker Z-Pain, the tender acoustic ballad transforms the original's raunchy lyrics into a romantic tribute.
Inspired by the anniversary of his first meeting with his wife, Priscilla Chan, Zuckerberg explained that "Get Low" has become a special song for the couple. In celebration, he collaborated with T-Pain to create their own version of the "lyrical masterpiece."
In a series of Instagram posts, Zuckerberg shared behind-the-scenes photos and videos of the recording process. The track and album cover featuring the pair holding acoustic guitars can now be streamed on Spotify under Z-Pain, with proceeds benefiting the Save the Music foundation.
The unlikely duet has garnered a mix of reactions from fans and critics. While some found it endearing, others questioned the motive behind Zuckerberg's public anniversary tribute. Some compared it to the viral "Wife Statue" controversy, where Zuckerberg commissioned a sculpture of Chan.
Despite the criticism, Zuckerberg's collaboration with T-Pain highlights his ongoing efforts to rebrand himself as a more lighthearted and approachable figure. The song joins a growing list of eccentric moments, including surfing in a tuxedo and a commissioned statue of his wife.
