T-Pain is recruited into Young Money



“This is the new Nappy Boy/Young Money piece,” Young Money jeweler Gabrielle revealed in a video with DJ Vlad. “This is the first exclusive right here. T-Pain is about to sign to Young Money. He better, after doing this. So you see it’s all blacked out. It’s all natural, red rubies, black diamonds. We gotta put a red ruby necklace on this thing — We started this whole thing. It doesn’t mean you have to get black diamonds — [Here's] the Nappy Boy logo right there…On the back, I’m going to do Pain’s progress to Young Money. It’s like a portrait that I can laser inscribe to the jewelry. It’s gonna be sick.” (Vlad TV) via SOHH

Julia Beverly from Ozone Magazine recently wrote about T-Pain’s Christmas Party that took place on December 23rd. She mentioned that “Some Cartoon Network/Adult Swim execs came through to display clips from Pain’s upcoming cartoon special “Freaknik,” which airs on March 21st. In it, Lil Wayne provides the voice for character Jesus Christ and performs a music video for “Ghetto Commandments.” Several other rappers are featured on the cartoon.” (New Lil Wayne)
