Why was anybody surprised that T-Pain was a great singer? We shouldn’t have been. In this episode we tune to T-Pain’s debut single, 2005’s “I’m Sprung.” We deep dive on auto-tune and how this song shows how much music culture underestimated T-Pain back when he first came on to the scene. Also: shawty!

Other music heard in this episode: T-Pain - “Buy U a Drank (Shawty Snappin')”, Billie Holiday - “Strange Fruit”, Kanye West - “Love Lockdown”, The Velvet Underground - “I’m Waiting For the Man”, fun. - “Some Nights”, Toadies - “Possum Kingdom”, Billie Eilish - “Bad Guy”
