He began his career as a rapper in the group Nappy Headz in 2004. In 2005, he released his debut album Rappa Ternt Sanga which reached number 33 on the Billboard top 200. He won a Grammy in 2008 with Kanye West for the single "Good Life" and another in 2010 for the single "Blame It" with Jamie Foxx.He is most known for his extensive use of Auto-Tune, and also for being in every song on the radio in the late '00s and early '10s that Pitbull & David Guetta weren't already in. At one point in late 2007, he was featured on four top ten singles on the Billboard Top 100 chart.In 2018-2019, he participated in the first season of The Masked Singer as the Monster, and won first place.He also happens to be a rather accomplished Call of Duty player. | |

| T-Pain (Music) / int_120d0e3f | comment |
Adam Westing: Whenever he makes a guest appearance on a TV show, whether As Himself or otherwise, chances are high that he'll play a laid-back party dude who speaks with auto-tune. Taken to particularly absurd extremes when he appeared on The Eric Andre Show babbling more-or-less gibberish to the tune of "The Star-Spangled Banner" while firing a gun into the air for no reason. (He was still one of the least absurd parts of that particular program and segment, though.) His work with The Lonely Island and Taylor Swift also had him parodying the songs he usually appears on and plays straight. | |

Auto-Tune | |
| T-Pain (Music) / int_315f7f2c | comment |
Auto-Tune: Probably one of the Trope Codifiers of it with current rappers. Actually used well, since he deliberately overuses it to make his vocals sound metallic, rather than just to cover his mistakes. Which makes his victory as The Monster in Season 1 of The Masked Singer using his natural voice all the more impressive. | |

| T-Pain (Music) / int_38958f33 | comment |
Black and Nerdy: He randomly decided to start a Twitch streaming channel one day while he was on tour, eventually streaming regularly since going independent. Turns out he's pretty decent at Overwatch and League of Legends. He even did a freestyle about being on Twitch. He's also very fond of cartoons, if his guest appearances (Squidbillies, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, The Cleveland Show, and We Bare Bears), personal projects (Freaknik: The Musical), and comments regarding Steven Universe (specifically Amethyst) are anything to go by. He even cosplayed Leroy Smith from Tekken 7 while his daughter was Dutch from Red Dead Redemption. | |

Melodic Rap | |
| T-Pain (Music) / int_623c8f43 | comment |
Melodic Rap: He, along with Kanye West circa 2008, is the chief reason why nearly every modern rapper (and some singers) uses Auto-Tuned drenched, sing-song flows in their songs, with varying degrees of quality. Unfortunately, despite being a legitimately good singer without the Auto-Tune, T-Pain became the scapegoat for the trend, which eventually caused him to take a four-year hiatus from the music industry. | |

Iconic Item: T-Pain is always seen with sunglasses, usually huge white-rimmed ones, though he will have different ones sometimes. This led to jokes that he was secretly crosseyed or something like that. His famous hats, to a lesser extent. Also his big ass chain. The one that says "BIG ASS CHAIN" in diamonds. | |

Signature Style: Melodic club anthems and sex jams with the Auto-Tune cranked up to eleven seem to be his bread-and-butter, and you can often expect a guest rapper to show up. | |

Intercourse with You | |
| T-Pain (Music) / int_dbfe8427 | comment |
Intercourse with You: He's made his fair share of sex songs; "Reverse Cowgirl" is perhaps the most explicit, being named after a sex position and all, while "Can't Believe It" is a more romantic song that combines the sexuality with a surprising level of emotional intimacy (being a Surprisingly Gentle Song for both himself and guest rapper Lil Wayne.) One of his earlier songs, "Backseat Action", is about his overwhelming desire to have sex with his girl in their car. "Rap Song" is a song about having sex to... well... rap songs. | |
